You can do GUI/web easily enough in Rust, but as this is DNS and so most users will be network/sysadmin types, their natural habitat is the terminal.

Rust is taking over from C/C++ (as per US Government guidance on using more secure languages) and so is attracting the most hardcore programmers.

And many, many more.
