This book is good but I think it’s too hard for beginners. I would recommend to read ‘zero to production in Rust’ by Luca Palmieri first especially if you like more learning by doing approach

Thanks for the book recommendation. I think this book is very much not intended for beginners, in fact the linked website says the following in the first paragraph:

> For developers who’ve mastered the basics, this book is the next step on your way to professional-level programming in Rust.

Not to complain, but isn't the title Rust for Rustaceans a clear hint that this book is meant for people already involved with the language?

[tkubacki]

Yes you are right - my intention was to show how to get to the point when you are ready for the book.

agreed, and the book is pretty upfront about it being for more intermediate readers. i felt like i hit the sweet spot for this book after having gone through the rust programming language [0], zero to production in rust [1], and having worked on a few larger rust projects. all three books are really good in their own way.
