I also just started learning rust over the past few weeks. While I'm still grasping with some of the core concepts of the language (like ownership), I do feel like there's adequate documentation and resources out there that I'll get there. What I really like is how helpful the compiler is. It's fast and the errors feel well explained and relevant to the problem in my code. It almost feels like I'm developing on a REPL. Rust seems to have a very ruby-like approach in trading ceremony for conciseness, and while I feel I will eventually learn to appreciate that more, it does present a challenge while learning. It seems like there are a lot more symbols that have significant meaning in rust - where an average language might only have a few dozen or so "core" symbols that I must learn to use the language, rust has quite a lot more, and many of them follow idioms that I don't recognize from any other language (most of my experience is a pretty typical web dev background). It definitely makes learning by example hard (from actual userland code, not the excellent beginner focused hosted tutorial). Although maybe it just feels this way because I'm on the start of a long journey of understanding and perhaps things look a little bigger than they are.
