An open-source book cataloguing Rust design patterns, anti-patterns, and idioms, built with mdbook and available as HTML or PDF. It is a community-maintained reference for writing idiomatic Rust code.

Use cases

  • learn idiomatic rust coding conventions
  • find rust design patterns for common problems
  • avoid common rust anti-patterns
  • reference for rust best practices
  • understand how borrow checker affects design patterns
  • onboard a team to rust style guidelines

When to choose

  • you write or review Rust code and want idiomatic guidance
  • you need a curated catalogue of Rust-specific patterns and anti-patterns
  • you want an offline/PDF reference for Rust idioms

When to avoid

  • you need a runnable library or tool rather than documentation
  • you are looking for general OOP design patterns unrelated to Rust
  • you need official language documentation instead of community best practices
