Most likely, soon after you’ve started your Rust journey, you ran into this scenario where you tried to work with string types (or should I say, you thought you were?), and the compiler refused to compile your code because of something that looks like a string, actually isn’t a string.
I've been there as well. That's why I wrote an article that explains the difference between String and &str in Rust:
