I keep looking for something really special for writing web applications using rust. Is there something on the horizon? It seems like rust on the server side is an easy decision but I'm unclear if there is a way rust could replace nodejs as the isomorphic application language on both server and browser.

Clojure and ClojureScript was such an interesting way to bring lisp into the browser and seemed really revolutionary. And without really limitations on what you could build. Where is the rust version of that?

Thanks, this was very informative.

I found some other alternatives, like Perseus. Do you have thoughts on it?

I am interested more in it because it mentions a lack of VirtualDOM, like SolidJS (so I assume it is more like Svelte than React).
