It's basically a tutorial for people coming from typeless, pointer-less dynamic languages, whereas the official Rust tutorial assumes familiarity with the concepts that a C (or C++, C#, Objective-C) developer would know

- malandrew 13y agoI am not a rubyist and I almost dismissed your book because of the title because I assumed it would lean heavily on concepts from ruby with which I would not be familiar and therefore be no more enlightening than the official rust tutorial. i.e. I assumed it would teach one foreign concept based on another foreign concept.
- steveklabnik 13y agoOriginally I envisioned more of that, it just didn't shape up that way. Hopefully I will have something better and more generic near the 1.0 release ;)
