I’ve read quite a lot of the logrocket posts recently and the writing is always a satisfying read. Logrocket and fasterthanli.me are my two favourite resources for rust opinion stuff. Opinionated but fair rather than ideological.

For my first brush with rust i decided i’d do some graph processing - a topic i’ve historically written buggy code for and i wondered if all the hype around rust’s compiler might help. Experienced rust people know where this is going but suffice to say i WOULD recommend this for someone new to rust if you want rapid exposure to what the borrow checker can and can’t do for you, for a rapid introduction to Rc & Arc, along with Box etc. I think i got a quicker introduction to rust by picking a hard use case.
