I know this is not realistic, but the only thing rust is missing is faster compilation times. To be fair, it’s already super fast.

I was adding a repl[1] to create-react-app[2] (trying to achieve something like RoR’s console) and it took way too long for it to boot simply because the dependencies for something like a full scale web app take long to compile. Even with incremental compilation, that first boot time was too much.
