Very short and well written book showing the main strengths of Rust. Looking forward to the full Rust book from Jim Blandy.

In 40s pages it explains most of the programming language, features and purposes.
> type safety, immutability, fp, thread, channel, mutex, GC
It really makes me concern about my favorite languages, supposing I am making a mapping to their existing features for the purpose and somewhat, turns out just to make us happier when programming. In contrast, this one is for solving real-world problems and makes a better future of a big-big-world.
Some say rust is a happy programming language. I don't know, time will tell.

quite a bit of the stuff went over my head, but at least it was a very short read.

Good introduce of Rust with well explanation with sample compared to C / C++.

This is a very short book, but it's a great and gentle introduction to the Rust programming language and more specifically it's major features compared to other programming languages (mostly C/C++ and Java). It doesn't teach programming and only touches the basics of the language, therefore it expects the reader to have at least some knowledge of another imperative programming language.
Learning about the most fundamental design constraints of the language, and why they were chosen to be added to the design of Rust, made me fall in love with it.
A short read means there is still a lot left uncovered, but the book is great for a first dive into Rust.

Poche pagine ma molto fitte. Raggiunge il suo scopo, spiegando bene perché si dovrebbe scegliere Rust al posto di altri linguaggi.
Gli esempi di codice sono necessariamente brevi ma molto efficaci.

Too short.
