Chapter 6. - Rust Story References

Rust Docs, Cargo, Getting Started, Cheats

6.0 References

There are a lot of references here. A few I've read in detail, many are here because I found in them useful material via web search. Some I think will be useful and await attention.

A nice quick summary of Rust facilities is given in a Glossary of Terms.
