# Rust Learning Notes

## Motivation
On 3rd February 2023, I got a big inspiration to learn Rust thanks for this [Syntax.fm interview with Tim McNamara](https://syntax.fm/show/571/supper-club-rust-in-action-with-tim-mcnamara).
## About Me
I started programming in 1996 as a kid, learning Pascal, Assembly and C. I created the website of my elementary school in 1998.
I have been working professionally since 2007 as a front-end developer. My usual stack at the moment (2023) is TypeScript, JavaScript, Angular and React with some HTML5, CSS3 and SCSS coding. Sometimes I code backend in Node.js.
## Setting Up Development Environment

[Guide for using Rust in VS Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/rust).
## Rust by Example
A very practical learning resource is [Rust by Example](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/rust-by-example/), which features runnables, examples and ideas.
## Topics
Watch Tim's short introductory video: [Rust Linz, June 2021 - Tim McNamara - How to learn Rust](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sDtQaO5_SOw).
> When starting to learn Rust, focus on structs, vectors, iteration, Result and Option.
