Have any of you actually written a CRUD app in Rust? I've written a couple that I also wrote in Node and Go. Using Tokio+Actix. It was a breeze, the LoC were actually similar to Node, and the built in observability was great.

Suggesting that Rust isn't a good choice for a backend CRUD is... odd. With that said, one of the particular CRUDs described above: We ultimately went with Go. Only because Rust isn't an officially approved language at our shop yet though.

I think it comes down to how big/experienced the team is, how old the product is, and how many unfortunate decisions where made in the history of the project that are there to stay. To me the point of the article is that rust would not be a robust choice considering all these factors.

That said, the article is a sample of 1. I'm not aware of other similar experiences

I have, and Python from 10 years ago was a better platform.

Sure, it beats the Javascript ecosystem, but that's too low a bar.

crates.io’s backend is in Rust.
