The barrier of entry to Rust is large, and I doubt that Rust's WASM integration will be as tight as Grain's just because Rust does a lot of other things.

I'd expect Grain to be easier to learn, and with less distractions from other platforms.

Grain appears to be based on a lot of similar type theory (based on the article). Maybe it will be easier to learn than Rust, maybe not. Maybe there will be fewer tools available and that in and of itself will make it harder to work with.

The question is, will it be worth it to adopt grain instead of a more mainstream language like Rust or AssemblyScript?
