rust-learning 
A bunch of links to blog posts, articles, videos, etc for learning Rust. Feel free to submit a pull request if you have some links/resources to add. Also, I try to verify that the articles below have some real content (i.e. aren't 2 paragraph blog posts with little information) to ensure I'm not listing "fluff" pieces. If you have an idea for a better way to organize these links, please let me know.
Introduction
Do you need to be convinced that Rust worth learning? Let us show you the True Nature of the Force
The main documentation is always the best beginning, so if you haven't read yet, start by reading Rust docs. You also have ebook versions of the doc here and there.
Tags meanings
- :star: Something made by a rust team member.

Tutorials & Workshop Materials
These are slides and materials from brick-and-mortar workshops about Rust.
While they're unlikely to help a student learning independently, they may be
of interest if you're running a workshop on Rust.
- Workshop slides and exercises from RustConf 2017.
- Niko Matsakis's rust tutorializer framework
- Niko Matsakis's ownership, borrowing, traits, structs, and threading tutorials, keynote files
- Niko Matsakis's concurrency tutorial from December 2015
- Niko Matsakis's Mozlando Tutorial includes slides and play.rust-lang.org demos
- Jim Blandy's exercises
- Dan Callahan's Python Rust FFI examples
- Nick Cameron's oopsla slides and exercises
- Florian Gilcher's mailbox tutorial takes Hello World to a whole new concurrent and networked level
- Carol Nichols' Intro to Rust that presents the guessing game and ownership in a similar manner as the book
- Jonathan Pallant's Rust on the Raspberry Pi tutorial (using a the Sense HAT)
