This seems like an awesome resource, but for a self learner like myself, not so much.

It's assumed that this book is accompanied by an experienced rust dev for a lecturer.

The posted link is to the GitHub repo, here's the link to the book:

Hey there! I wrote the course and you're spot on: the course is meant for classroom training (at Google and elsewhere). If you have the time to read a book, then I highly recommend diving into one of the many great Rust books. I've linked some of the freely available ones here: https://google.github.io/comprehensive-rust/other-resources.....

We've made an attempt at making Comprehensive Rust useful for self-learners by providing speaker notes on many of the pages. However, they're still quite terse and could be expanded in many places. PRs for that will be gratefully accepted :-)

For newcomers, https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings is a good way to start.
