And once you've learnt those things and got some experience writing real world software in Rust, you may well find yourself more productive in Rust than, say Ruby on Rails. Context matters a lot, and you shouldn't be making tech choices based on the way the wind is blowing ("tech radars", what's hot in the blogosphere, etc.). If hiring teams to work on your mostly-CRUD app easily is a high priority, then Rust probably isn't a good choice. If you have a team that already knows Rust, and you need to add some web app / service, then Rust is a perfectly fine choice, on the grounds that support for web stuff is "good enough" now, and the best tool for the job is often the one you already know well and are already supporting. If I'm building stuff for _myself_ and it's getting too fiddly for a bash script, then I'll always default to Rust just because _personally_ I'm way more productive in it than anything else. Context, context, context. |
