Fixes bug #2004. Refactored the communication between the speaker notes window and the regular window by using a Broadcast channel - this is now self-recovering(!) even if speaker notes are closed and manually re-opened! For better readability and maintainability refactored some string-based states into enum style code and refactored detection of the type of windows (print, speaker note, regular window) Manually tested the new code and the speaker notes window does not disconnect from the regular window anymore. This now works way more reliable, even if there are (still) some UI glitches that have been there before already.
Comprehensive Rust 🦀
This repository has the source code for Comprehensive Rust 🦀, a multi-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 deep dives on Android, Chromium, bare-metal, and concurrency.
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 a few tools:
In addition, mdbook-linkcheck checks the internal links.
First install Rust by following the instructions on https://rustup.rs/. Then clone this repository:
git clone https://github.com/google/comprehensive-rust/
cd comprehensive-rust
Then install these tools with:
bash install-mdbook.sh
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. Note that you have to separately build
and zip exercises and add them to book/html. To build any of the translated
versions of the course, run MDBOOK_BOOK__LANGUAGE=xx mdbook build -d book/xx
where xx is the ISO 639 language code (e.g. da for the Danish translation).
TRANSLATIONS.md contains further instructions.
Note
On Windows, you need to enable symlinks (
git config --global core.symlinks true) and Developer Mode.
