> Rust is a compiled language

So is Haskell. What I'm saying is that in 2020 the dev workflow is not: code, compile, run, repeat. Thanks to modern tooling it is now a near-instant feedback loop of: code, red wiggly line(s), fix, repeat. Ie. real-time conversation with the compiler.

rust-analyzer brings this to the table, but it's a pretty recent development. The RLS existed for a while before that, and gave a basic version of this story, but it was much slower.
