Rust for Beginners: Building Target Proximity Game
In this 2-hour long project-based course, we will focus on handling API responses fetched from a given RPC URL. Then we are going to build a target proximity game which can act as a foundation layer for big projects like optimizing delivery time for a food delivery app like Zomato. Throughout the course, we will guide you through every step of creating the game, from user workflow and architecture diagrams to coding intricacies like creating custom data type and generic input function. Finally, we will put everything together to build the finished game.
