Comprehensive Rust is an open source training course developed by Google to provide a complete introduction to the Rust programming language. Originally created for Google engineers, it has since been released publicly for the broader developer community. The course is structured into modular lessons that cover the fundamentals of Rust, including ownership, lifetimes, traits, generics, and error handling, before progressing to advanced topics like concurrency, async programming, unsafe Rust, and FFI. It is designed to be taught in classroom settings but can also be followed independently, making it useful both for structured training and self-study. The materials are presented in a slide-based format with accompanying examples and hands-on exercises to reinforce key concepts. By offering an accessible yet thorough introduction, the course helps learners gain practical experience with Rust while building a strong understanding of its unique safety and performance guarantees.
