I am doing #100DaysOfCode or rather 100 Days of Reignating Hobby Coding with #rustlang for learning something totally new and perhaps my old pal #python for exploring new ideas from the comforts of familiarity

Day 1: As I am just getting to know Rust, Rustlings has been my companion today and it delighted me with how soon tests were introduced. I am looking forward to making something in a strongly typed language for a change.

Day 2: Chiming in with a proposal on how to change rustlings before finishing rustlings. Not quite going in with a pull request yet, that would feel too weird.

Day 3: I am so eager to stop dallying around and get to something real with Rust that I need your help to grow my patience, dear Rustaceans. What are the things devs coming from other languages most often misunderstand or underuse in Rust?

Day 4: Today I realized I need some other approach to GUI than experimenting with Azul. Maybe I'll go with rust-sciter

Day 5: Having control of mutability and how borrowing and moving works will take some getting used to, but I do like the feel of it all. Still undecided about the GUI framework choice for my Linux app.

Day 6: Learned about error handling in Rust. Seems it fits my ways of thinking rather well! I also started experimenting with gtk-rs for the GUI though the choice is not yet carved in stone

Day 7: I made yesterday optional and today all about Option. I took a look at the Rust community on Discord as well, but didn't interact much yet. It's humbling and refreshing to be a beginner again... I am itching to contribute or at least make something real π

I'll have a skim through the issues I've marked as being prepared to mentor and see if I can find a nice one for you
