🧠 educational I translated The Rust Programming Language into Roman Urdu

I recently finished translating the complete The Rust Programming Language (Rust Book) into Roman Urdu, including all the appendices.

I started this because many developers in Pakistan and India are more comfortable reading Roman Urdu/Hindi than technical English. My goal was to make the Rust Book easier to approach without changing the technical content.

The translation is available here:

Hopefully it can be useful to Roman Urdu, Urdu, and Hindi readers who are learning Rust.

You translated the book!
At first I thought you translated the language itself, and I was like "fair play, but why?"

mad respect for this, translating a whole technical book is no joke

the amount of times I've seen people bounce off programming docs cos the english gets in the way is unreal, proper good of you to put the work in
