100 Exercises to Learn Rust, Updated
The post announces a major update to the free JetBrains Academy course ‘100 Exercises to Learn Rust,’ which runs inside RustRover. The course teaches Rust through hands-on exercises building a ticket management system across eight chapters from ownership to futures, assuming fluency in another language. The update adds a rebuilt introduction, an FAQ, a final challenge turning the system into an async REST API by editing Cargo.toml and verifying with a requests.http file, visible test assertions, and a dev/release profile experiment. A ‘fast track’ lets experienced users skip to the final challenge to quickly see which areas need revisiting. The post advises using AI for explanations, not code generation, and turning off AI code completion during exercises to maximize learning from getting stuck and working out solutions.

The best engineering reads, once a week.
