Wow - I just started my Rust journey this weekend. Any good projects that are even simpler than this to learn. maybe a basic k/v store?

Check out sled

https://github.com/spacejam/sled

It’s surprisingly mature and the person behind it is very committed to the project.

+1 for sled--I was working with it this morning for a personal project, and it's frankly just really well built. Beside the great documentation and easy use, I kept finding myself looking for architectural tips for structuring Config structs, etc. because I could do a lot worse than end up coding something that is similarly nice to use.

What are you starting with? I re-started my Rust learning last month. I am very slow at learning but Rust makes digging into systems stuff so much fun. I am from Python/JS background. I start with Rustlings every time.

Now building a Git player - basically watch a Git repo history unfold like a movie, for learning purposes [1].

Please ping me if you have some ideas, looking for learning peers.
