5.0 out of 5 stars Really great Rust book
Not much to say that hasn't already been said. It's well written and covers the key points of the language in great detail. The first chapter is a bit odd because it's more hands-on, and then all of the chapters after are passive explanations of different concepts. I enjoyed the first chapter, but the rest of the book does have a different tone.I also like how the authors draw comparisons to C and C++, but you don't need to understand those languages to get the point. They tell you how something works in those languages and why Rust does it better. This helps me appreciate why something works the way it does in Rust.Would definitely recommend this book to anyone from a development background wanting to learn Rust. Would not recommend it for someone starting from zero with no development experience. In general Rust is not recommended as a first language anyway, so probably not a big concern for most people.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great for experienced developers
If you’re new to Rust, but not to programming, and in particular to C/C++ on Unix, this may be a better resource than the “official” book, The Rust Programming Language, since IMO it makes a better job at describing all the language features from a C point of view, while TRPL is more “abstract”. It’s not low-level but it makes it a bit easier to understand what’s going on under the hood, and includes lots of small but realistic and functional examples to showcase the features.
5.0 out of 5 stars It takes effort that you won't regret
The book starts out with Mandlebrot fractals. Don't let that stop you.The balance of the book steps through the big things you need to understand Rust that you can't get through video tutorials or blog posts. I picked up Rust this past year and used it to create an API for my iOS application. I've been programming for forty-seven years, and this book gave me information in a way I've not experienced during my long career.I reread many sentences, paragraphs, pages, and chapters to lock in what the book teaches. Rust is a beautiful language that produces great results. As you will read many times, it's a steep learning curve. This text is your rope line to a higher plane.
5.0 out of 5 stars Good book
Good intro/medium book for rust. I like it more than rust for rustaceans
4.0 out of 5 stars Amazing book.
This book is just fantastic. Full of knowledge. Helps go from learning to experienced. This paired with rustlings and the official book would take anyone interested to highly skilled. As long as you can handle programming logic. What are you waiting for? Give up on any language except rust.The only other languages worth knowing are PowerShell for powerful admin capabilities. And python for universal simplicity in any task.All companies should dump all other languages. If some one can convert rust to an asp type language. We'd have no need for anything but rust and command line. And python.
5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best language books I’ve read
This has to be one of the best written books dedicated to learning a language out there. The content is very well structured, has snippets of humor and fun analogies.It is certainly designed to not bore the reader.
5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommend
I highly recommend this book if you want to learn Rust. Coming from a C/C++ background this book was great, because it mentioned a lot of the similarities and differences between Rust and C / C++. For example, it had a table of the common Rust types and the analogous types in C / C++. I read the official Rust book first, and this book was a good next step to dive deeper into the details of some aspects of the language.I read the book front to back and learned something in every chapter. Even with the early chapters, where I was already familiar with much of the content, I still picked up useful details and learned things I didn't already know. Each chapter can be treated as an individual unit, so it isn't necessary to read the entire book for someone already familiar with Rust. The book dived into the how and why for a lot of the features and benefits of Rust. I liked how they often showed the memory layout / representations for different scenarios. The book covered a lot of interesting topics, including async, FFI, macros, and closures, in addition to all of the basic language features. Even after reading the book, I still see myself continuing to use this as a reference in the future.
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent resource. Highly recommend.
I've had this book a couple years, and it is still one the best programming books I've ever read. Not only has it put me on the right path with learning and Rust and using it professionally, but it does a good job in helping you think about how programs execute in a computer. The examples are great and the material covered is fairly complete.
Good introduction to Rust
Definitely easier to read than the "official" Klabnik and Nichols.
Material Abrangente & completo
Assim como descrevi no título desta avaliação, reitero que este material complementa os estudos sobre a linguagem para aqueles que leram o livro oficial (gratuito), mas se estende em demonstrar perspectivas de projetos enquanto o livro oficial apenas foca nos mecanismos iniciais da linguagem.Lembrando que este edição do livro, refere-se a edição 2018 e 2021 da linguagem Rust!
Amazing book!
I bought high socks and cat ears too, I already feel like a 10x engineer
Fantastic book!
I have a few books about Rust language, but this one is by far the best. It really helps to understand the language (practical parts, limitations, why it is done this or that way, etc) from the very basic stuff to much more advanced topics. It is a must have book for everyone who develops in Rust.
Chiaro ed efficace
Mi è piaciuto molto perché rispetto alla guida "ufficiale", mi sembra che l'esposizione sia studiata per chi come me viene da altri linguaggi di programmazione. Si arriva in fretta a vedere le (tante) caratteristiche innovative del linguaggio e ad apprezzarne i vantaggi, prendendo man mano confidenza con la sintassi. Probabilmente per chi parte da zero potrebbe risultare un po' ostico.
