Let’s use the Advent of Code 2020, a series of programming challenges of increasing difficulty, to learn more about the Rust programming language.

I was not planning on doing anything specific this December, but a lot of folks around me (on Twitter, at work) have chosen this Advent of Code to pick up Rust, and I’ve got big FOMO energy, so, let’s see where this goes.

I’ll be doing all of these on Linux, so there may be some command-line tools involved, but don’t worry about them - the code itself should run on all platforms no problem.
