A complete introduction to Rust taking a simple implementation of Tetris as an example to expand on (thanks to @mikejquinn https://github.com/mikejquinn/rust-tetris).

• in src/, a simple but working Tetris that we will try to improve as we learn the language.
• in curriculum/, the text of the course over 10 weeks. See the intro.md file for a detailed overview of the content.
• branches that work as bookmarks to easily checkout the state of the repo for each week

• Read the code to assimilate the basic concepts and flow of Rust programming.
• Expand on it by adding the following:
  • Game over
  • Levels and difficulty
  • Scoring
  • wall-kick
• For advanced learners, try the following, harder improvements:
  • Enhance the graphics:
    • ghost different from actual piece
    • animation when the lines are cleared
    • ASCII Art
  • Add a screen title, a menu, options...
  • Write tests
  • Read the Tetris specification and make it more compliant
  • Modularize the game by segregating the game engine and the display
  • Add a real graphical engine
  • Rework the game engine according to the ECS principles using a library like Legion
