All my homies hate Packt.
Seriously though, I bought one bundle of Packt books and they were some of the most poorly written books I have ever worked through. Not to mention as I got better at the subject, I frequently had to relearn things I “learned” from those books. If it was even correct, it was frequently a bad way of doing something.
Rust has an official online book that literally has everything you’d ever need to know in it, read through it and you’re set.
Damn it. Another time I get tricked by the name of this language.
Quite interesting, thanks
I bought the bundle looking for some wasm, async and web Rust resources. I’m not impressed. The books quality is low and most of it is a waste of time I would have used more effectively with just documentation. It’s also true that there are some C++ and C# books in there which baffles me. I’ve actually started reading one of the wasm books only to realize it’s a C++ one few minutes later 🤣
Once again I see that I should stay away from Packt.
I think I’ll go grab Rust for Rustaceans now instead of all those in the bundle.
