I think the fist meet up when well and covered some nice ground. Learning about the match statement for flow of control feels like a cool idea that I hope to experiment with more in my own learning projects.

    Yep!

    There’ll be follow up posts for the reading club to happen here too … coming shortly!

    For me personally … I started this community with a partly selfish motivation of starting a community that’d get me to learn rust (and contribute to the lemmy codebase too) more quickly.

    And even though I didn’t intend to actually code during the stream, but instead just listen in … I found mysefl compelled to just pull up a file and punch in code and see what happens. If I hadn’t started this community … and you all joined and started running things … I’d still be thinking … “hmmm I should learn rust sometime”. Now I’m already thinking about what I can do in the language! Nothing like getting together to get shit done!

    Hope you post your learning projects!
