Rust Exercises

This book contains a collection of Rust Exercises, written by Ferrous Systems. See ferrous-systems.com/training for more details or a custom quote. You can view this material on-line at https://rust-exercises.ferrous-systems.com.

We use these exercises as part of our Rust Training, but you are welcome to try them for yourself as well.

If you wish to fund further development of the course, why not book a training with us!

Reading the book

You can:

Building the material locally

To build the exercise book, run mdbook in the usual fashion:

$ cargo install mdbook
$ cargo install mdbook-mermaid
$ cd ./exercise-book
$ mdbook build
2024-07-01 11:51:21 [INFO] (mdbook::book): Book building has started
2024-07-01 11:51:21 [INFO] (mdbook::book): Running the html backend
$ ls -l book/index.html
-rw-r--r--  1 jonathan  staff  27975  1 Jul 11:51 book/index.html

You could use mdbook serve instead to start a webserver that serves up the book and also rebuilds the book every time you change a file.

To verify that every code example in the book compiles as expected, run:

mdbook test

To verify that all the examples build, we use the top-level build script build.sh. Note that running that script may require a valid CriticalUp token, as we use Ferrocene in our CI.
