Recommended Rust Resources?

Question

Couple days ago I started learning rust and I am amazed how helpful the compiler is, and how well-documented the packages are.Do you guys know any resources that you find crucial to learn for starters? I've found the following helpful but im curious for more..- https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/- https://cheats.rs/- https://fasterthanli.me/

I'll add a (lone?) voice for diving in to the deep end straight away:
https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/
https://doc.rust-lang.org/nomicon/
Documentation aimed at beginners often assumes a lack of prior programming experience, which is useful if you are (for example) a high-school student learning about pointers and abstraction but IMO not a good use of time for most people posting on Hacker News.
The Rust reference manual is well-written and comprehensive for basic Rust, and the Rustonomicon has often answered my questions about more advanced topics (FFI, concurrency).

In addition to the other resources listed here, check out OReilly's "Programming Rust" 2nd edition, arguably a better introduction and reference than the official book.If you're into backend web development, take a look at "Zero to Production" in Rust for an applied, hands-on approach to building a server.

If you want to use Rust for web development (server applications, APIs...), have a look at the upcoming book "Rust Web Development" (print around mid November):https://www.manning.com/books/rust-web-development

I just started reading Rust in Action and so far I'm finding it much better then the official book.
