Learners should read and write lots of Rust. That's a great way to learn what is idiomatic. There will be early missteps, but thankfully the language makes it more comfortable when you do things the right way.

Yeah, my advice in general is to pick a few rust codebases and start hacking on them.

But I would love to figure out how to teach this in a way that doesn't involve random codebases. Some folks learn by doing (I do!), but others fare better with tutorials.
