Don't be let down by other comments. The topic itself something I think people would more enjoy when it is more comprehensive. Add more content with your findings, refine and then post again on HN

Thank you. I'm glad you think that someone will find this useful.

> Idiomatic Rust Not very idiomatic to not use the builtin code formatter...

I'm new to this blogging environment. What do you mean? The HTML's built in formatter? I actually wanted to have these examples ready to be used anywhere else and that's why I chose github gists.

Personally, I'd prefer to see a table of content and jump through it than being taken through it like a little story. Is there anything more than part 1?

Yes sir. Part 2 just dropped. Here - https://a-i-nstein.neocities.org/pages/part-2. About the ToC, I agree. I'm planning to build a table of content once I have enough content.

Yeah, I clicked the "Show me" half expecting a popup asking to subscribe to a newsletter for "updates" on more parts. OP, this is just feedback and I hope that you'll continue documenting your rust journey even if it's just for yourself.

Hmm. That's an interesting UX feedback. I'm new to Rust and wanted to highlight it as a disclaimer. That's the reason behind the the home page, the disclaimer box and the show me button. I'll see if there's a better to do it. Thanks.

Hello HN, I've recently started learning Rust, and I'm finding it incredibly interesting! However, I'm also encountering a wealth of new syntax, built-in functions, and concepts that are unique to Rust. To solidify my understanding and create a useful resource for myself (and hopefully others), I've been diligently documenting these discoveries. I've decided to share these insights by starting a blog, where I'll delv…

If you think any of the features you listed are unique to Rust, you need to learn more languages.

Check out Part 2: https://a-i-nstein.neocities.org/pages/part-2

I hope some of these are unique to Rust. Let me know!

Right now there is only Part 1, right? If not, this will need fixing. I tried clicking on "Show Me!" just in case it loads more, but it did not. As someone else said, I would like to see a TOC instead, personally.

Ah, thanks for highlighting that UX flow. I'll soon have a ToC once I have enough content.

Please do Strings next. Effective Rust isn't useful at guiding to a good default. The technical arguments for one or the other option are available in a bunch of places, but no good guidance on an idiomatic default.

Sure. I'll add it to my bucket list.
