I had zero experience with this language, and I was able to understand the concepts, take my own time to read referred materials and there were no annoying videos or steps to prevent me from studying at my own speed and learning. I like this a lot.

I liked the organized structure and clear explanations of the code examples, the different kinds of applications that can be written.

It provided a good entry level discussion of why I might care to use Rust and what the basic tools look like.

Simple to follow but very engaging. Most courses try to explain every little aspect, which makes them very cumbersome. Instead, presenting examples with some explanation and leaving the rest to the learner is a great approach.

This course was easy to understand and has practical work at the end.

The theoretical overview of the language is explained very well. Having a quick intro to jump off of is helpful for someone trying to see if Rust is for them.

This was a really good intro for not only what Rust is, but why it's the way it is. This really lowered my anxiety about learning this language, and now I'm excited to make things with it.

The course is well structured.

The course is short and explained in a practical way. Good for a first overview for someone who already knows how to program in other languages.

I liked the inclusion of fuzzing programs to test Rust code. They are much more important for Rust code in embedded devices or kernels like Linux.
