The Rust Documentation Directory

there's a lot of problems with that page:

  1. the name and title, along with the first 80% being things i know, makes me, someone who already knows rust, completely disregard it. i'm not looking to learn rust, i'm trying to find a specific piece of information.
  2. it redirects from doc.rust-lang.org. this is how i've ended up at it, and most of the time it just makes me annoyed, since it initially looks like an unrelated site. i see a big heading labeled "getting started with rust", and immediately assume i'm in the wrong place.
  3. it doesn't link to every subpage of doc.rust-lang.org, which is annoying because it makes it feel a lot less like a website and more like several unconnected pages. doc.rust-lang.org also doesn't feel like a real website since it doesn't have a webpage at it's root, instead the root is a redirect to a different subdomain
