Module 1 does not cover Rust. The remaining modules lack structure: new concepts are introduced without sufficient explanation, some external links are broken, and lab exercises reference topics that are only explained later. Overall, the didactic approach is lacking. Move on, nothing to see here.

The instructor, while knowledgeable, seems to not have thought about the order of introducing subjects and concepts. There is a large number of occurrences where he states "Don't worry about this, we'll get to it later". Either explain it fully when you introduce it, or use a different example.

Terrible course. First week is just setting up VS Code, Github Codespaces and Github Copilot, which are not used at all. Concepts are explained very quickly, examples are too simples, labs are just code you need to run, zero exercises and zero assignments to prove your knowledge. Assignments are single choice questions where the answer is the only logical one. Wouldn't recommend.

this course isn't taught at a university level rigor. it is just a series of demos without much explanation. comprehensive-rust from google is much better!

Links to Microsoft Learning are broken and unavailable. Do not waste your time with this course. Coursera support was pathetic

Spend too much time initially on things which are not needed for learning Rust language . Sorry.
