We are excited to be back after the incredible Rust Nation Conference. This is an excellent opportunity to reconnect post-conference.
# A Get-Together
Good talks are only half of the appeal of a local meetup.
The other half is the community: getting to know like-minded people, hacking on a new problem together, and learning from more experienced practitioners.
## Absolute beginners
We will create a dedicated group for beginners. It will be an opportunity to find like-minded peers who are going through the journey of learning Rust while enjoying the support of more experienced Rust programmers.
There will be a study-group session for specific chapters of the Rust book (https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/). You can also go through the exercises for the Rust track on exercism.io or try to build a small application!
## Hacking together on projects
If you know the basics of the language, The Rust London Hack & Learn is an excellent opportunity to find partners to hack together!
There is no definition of "the right project": the Hack & Learn is an occasion to tinker and explore.
Do you want to work on a PR to close an issue? That's a great project!
Do you have a fuzzy picture in your mind of a crate that is missing in the ecosystem? Go ahead!
There will be pizza and drinks, as always provided by TrueLayer.
