I've been writing a web app in rust for a while now (using a different framework though, iron's ergonomics didn't suit me for some reason). Overall I've found it a pleasant enough experience. The reason I like the it is that I write code for a wide variety of domains, from web apps to compilers, and so far rust has been a decently usable language in all the domains I've tried it in. I really like the "one language to rule them all" aspect of it because it simplifies my life - chances are good that whatever problem I'm looking at will either be trivial enough for shell scripting, or will be amenable to a rust-based solution. Narrowing down the language set seems like it could also lead to some interesting interoperability potential, like an easy web UI for a disassembler library or something. I still use half a dozen other languages on a regular basis, so the dream of being able to really focus on just one is still just a dream. However, rust is getting closer, and I'm gradually migrating most of my work to it when the choice is up to me.
