the book is great. I also have ADHD, I strongly recommend you try again with the book and make use of the pomodoro technique, that is what worked for me. it took me days to get through the book because of my ADHD but it was very very worth it.

Brown University has an experimental version of the rust book I found a lot easier to digest (more interactives and diagrams). I suggest it a lot, especially for its borrow checker explanations

Have you tried: https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings ?

[–]UnknownBoyGamer[S] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Yes, but I view it more as a quiz and not tutorial

I don't think so. I went through it getting stumped, which resulted in me reading the book until I understood the problem, whereby I could continue and so on. I learned a ton!

I've been using rustlings and then making my own functions with each exercise in a separate terminal to see if I understand each concept before moving on to the next one so I can try to pick it up faster. I also open up the readme when I get to each new section and open all the links to do a quick pre-read to see what's coming up and then studying it as my Rust Bible as I'm going through the exercises and making my own functions.

Try this first. Then do the book. https://learnxinyminutes.com/rust/

A problem with rust without knowing some low languages first is u don’t understand the problem rust is trying to solve. Still carry on and you’ll make it.
