Articles like this remind me how Kotlin is probably 10 times easier and concise than Rust and C++.

Kind of off topic but has anyone noticed difference in code quality and documentation from projects in C++ / Rust / Kotlin / JavaScript libraries that have the same features?

Recently was working with Seastar which is Tokio / Kotlin Coroutine equivalent in C++ and seems crazy how far behind it is from Kotlin Coroutines. The documentation the example, the boiler plate etc. Don't think it is the language themselves but the language culture. Seems like C++ libraries are just designed to be more difficult. Less documentation, no comments, flat folder structures with each file having with 1000s of lines of code. They expect you to go read through source code etc.
