Let's just accept you can build just about anything in any language. When I see posts like "I built X in Rust," I just assume the process was so onerous that they had to impress others by saying they did it the hardest way possible. /s

If they specify it was made in Rust, then chances are that's what's interesting about the project.

If somebody says they rewrote yes in $LANG, I might click through because even though the yes command isn't that interesting, the $LANG part may be.
