The `/print.html` page is concatenates all pages in the book and can be reached from the printer icon in the top-right corner. On this page, we will have many speaker notes. Since the page is for people who want all information in one place, I think it makes sense to render all these notes in their expanded form. I wrote the logic for this as a separate little function since it has to be different: we don’t want to add an `id` attribute to the generated headers (since there will be more than one of them) and we don’t want to generate links to open the notes into a separate window.
Comprehensive Rust 🦀
This repository has the source code for Comprehensive Rust 🦀, a four day Rust course developed by the Android team. The course covers all aspects of Rust, from basic syntax to generics and error handling. It also includes Android-specific content on the last day.
Read the course at https://google.github.io/comprehensive-rust/.
Course Format and Target Audience
The course is used internally at Google when teaching Rust to experienced software engineers. They typically have a background in C++ or Java.
The course is taught in a classroom setting and we hope it will be useful for others who want to teach Rust to their team. The course will be less useful for self-study since you miss out on the discussions happening in the classroom. You don't see the questions and answers and you don't see the compiler errors we trigger when going through the code samples. We hope to improve on this via speaker notes and by publishing videos.
Building
The course is built using mdBook and its Svgbob plugin. Install both tools with
$ cargo install mdbook
$ cargo install mdbook-svgbob
Then run
$ mdbook test
to test all included Rust snippets. Run
$ mdbook serve
to start a web server with the course. You'll find the content on
http://localhost:3000. You can use mdbook build to create a static version
of the course in the book/ directory.
