# Welcome A collaborative space for people to work together on learning Rust,
learning about the Lemmy code base, discussing whatever confusions or
difficulties we’re having in these endeavours, and solving problems, including,
hopefully, some contributions back to the Lemmy code base. Rules TL;DR: Be nice,
constructive, and focus on learning and working together on understanding Rust
and Lemmy. — # Policies and Purposes 1. This is a place to learn and work
together. 1. Questions and curiosity is welcome and encouraged. 1. This isn’t a
technical support community. Those with technical knowledge and experienced
aren’t obliged to help, though such is very welcome. This is closer to a library
of study groups than stackoverflow. Though, forming a repository of useful
information would be a good side effect. 1. This isn’t an issue tracker for
Lemmy (or Rust) or a place for suggestions. Instead, it’s where the nature of an
issue, what possible solutions might exist and how they could be or were
implemented can be discussed, or, where the means by which a particular
suggestion could be implemented is discussed. # Rules 1. Lemmy.ml
[http://Lemmy.ml] rule 2 applies strongly: “Be respectful, even when
disagreeing. Everyone should feel welcome” (see Dessalines’s post
[https://lemmy.ml/post/1140303]). This is a constructive space. 1. Don’t demean,
intimidate or do anything that isn’t constructive and encouraging to anyone
trying to learn or understand. People should feel free to ask questions, be
curious, and fill their gaps knowledge and understanding. 1. Posts and comments
should be (more or less) within scope (on which see Policies and Purposes
above). 1. See the Lemmy Code of Conduct
[https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html] 1. Where applicable, rules
should be interpreted in light of the Policies and Purposes. — ### Relevant

Hi all,
We've started a new community for learning rust and/or the lemmy codebase together.
The idea is that there are probably a good amount of people interested in learning rust, or, interested in contributing to or using the lemmy codebase, but find it difficult to get started ... so basically why not start a sort of study group or reading group or support channel style of community? Here's where the idea was originally suggested: https://lemmy.ml/post/11232276
We're just putting the place together and sorting out how it could work, but all kinds of inputs and levels of expertise are welcome!
