Introduction to Rust - for People Who Have Never Used a Compiler

Dive into a comprehensive tutorial on Rust programming for beginners with no prior compiler experience. Learn the essentials of the language, including cargo, immutability, types, methods, safety, generics, and data structures. Follow along as the instructor builds a command-line utility, demonstrating how Rust can be as accessible as Python or Ruby while offering the benefits of a compiled language. Explore practical examples, including an L-system interpreter, and gain insights on overcoming common learning hurdles. Discover tools and resources for continued learning, and understand how Rust's powerful features can be approached without getting bogged down in complex terminology.
