Two days, the essentials, real Rust by Sunday night.
You've got a weekend and you want to actually write Rust by the end of it. This is the essentials-only path — 16 lessons, two sittings. It skips the deep advanced material on purpose; once you're comfortable here, the full course (and the 7-day plan) pick up exactly where this leaves off.
Setup through ownership — the ideas you can't skip.
Borrowing, your own types, collections, errors — then build a CLI.
Finish here and keep going with the full course or the 7-day path for traits, testing, and the advanced topics.
Same 16-lesson course, mapped a different way.
