Rust's ecosystem is usually fantastic for CLI tools and specialized network servers. Large REST API servers aren't quite as solid (but perfectly doable for basic cases), and GUIs are nowhere near mature.

In several major areas, I actually like the available Rust crates for a given task more than I like the available npm modules. Rust has many fewer third-party libraries available, but the quality is often good.

Oh, I know. I was just joking that async rust is heavily geared towards build some kind of L7 proxy.
