I want to learn Rust. There are so many resources available and I am unsure which one to go for, and if there are any tips on getting started?

I am a software developer by trade

Edit: Thanks for all the great replies!

I'm looking at this book now and I guess I'll keep reading, but the early parts are quite verbose and I keep waiting to get to a description of the language. Something like "Rust for C++ programmers" might be worth a shot: https://github.com/nrc/r4cppp

There are a few different things like that for Ada. There are also a few "Rust for Haskell programmers" and I might look at a few of those.

There's also Rust for the Polyglot Programmer which seems to be a generic version of those.

Thanks this looks good.
