Introduction

Learning a new programming language can be overwhelming—especially one as unique and powerful as Rust. To make that journey smoother, I’m excited to introduce Rust Notes, a curated blog series designed to help you grasp the fundamentals of Rust, one step at a time.

This series is based on a structured set of notes and examples I originally compiled into a GitHub repository. Now, I’m bringing it to you as a series of easy-to-digest blog posts—perfect for developers just getting started with Rust.

🔍 What You’ll Learn

We’ll cover Rust’s core principles, such as:

• Ownership and Borrowing

• Mutability and References

• Structs and Enums

• Error Handling with Result & Option

• Traits, Generics, and Memory Allocation

• Concurrency via Message Passing

Each chapter builds upon the previous one to ensure you're not just reading theory, but truly understanding how Rust works under the hood.

🧭 The Learning Path

The blog series follows this flow:

flowchart TD
    A0["Ownership"]
    A1["Borrowing and References"]
    A2["Mutability"]
    A3["Structs"]
    A4["Enums"]
    A5["Result and Option"]
    A6["Traits"]
    A7["Stack vs Heap"]
    A8["Generics"]
    A9["Message Passing"]
    A0 --> A1 --> A2 --> A3 --> A4 --> A5 --> A6 --> A7 --> A8 --> A9

The order of chapters is carefully designed to align with how concepts connect in the real world of Rust development.
