// Welcome to Rust-101
// ===================
//
-// This is Rust-101, a small tutorial to the [Rust language](http://www.rust-lang.org/).
+// This is [Rust-101](https://www.ralfj.de/projects/rust-101/), a small tutorial for the [Rust language](http://www.rust-lang.org/).
// This is intended to be an interactive, hands-on course: I believe the only way to
// *really* learn a language is to write code in it, so you should be coding during
// the course. These documents mainly serve as a guide to the teacher, reminding me
// what to explain in which order, and making sure I have sample code for all topics
// I plan to cover. They may also be helpful as an offline resource, but you're on your
// own then.
-
+//
// I will assume basic familiarity with programming, and hence not explain the basic
// concepts common to most languages. Instead, I will focus on what makes Rust special.
-
+//
+// Prerequisites
+// -------------
+//
+// You will need to have Rust installed, of course. It is available for download on
+// [the Rust website](http://www.rust-lang.org/). At this point, I plan to restrict
+// myself to stable Rust, so "Recommended" version is just right.
+// You can find some more installation instructions in
+// [the second chapter of The Book](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/book/installing-rust.html).
+// When you are done, running `cargo build` in the root of Rust-101 should successfully compile
+// all the code.
+//
+// Course Content
+// --------------
+//
// The actual course is in the partXX.rs files. I suggest you get started with
// [the first part](part00.html), or jump directly to where you left off:
-
+//
// * [Part 00](part00.html)
// * [Part 01](part01.html)

+// To actually run the code of some part (after filling in the blanks, if necessary), simply edit the `main`
// function below.
