The first project

Hey, guys! Can you tell me which pet project is better to start with in order to consolidate your Rust knowledge in your opinion and why?

The best project to learn with is a project that you actually care about. Make a program that is useful (or fun) to you.

In the absence of ideas, a todo list always seems to be the top recommendation ...

Good answer, thanks!

A more ambitious idea is implementing some data structure (e.g. Rope, for fast string manipulation), and then trying to build a text editor upon it. The latter will touch upon GUI/TUI libraries, handling of long lines, broader ecosystem of crates, etc.

Ok, thanks!
