Sorry, it wasn't exactly clear from the context but by hand holding I meant more in terms of the resources available. C++ by its very nature has tons of great libraries, tools, and various kinds of documentation. If you can think of it, someone has most likely written a tutorial about how to do it in C++. Additionally there have been entire forests worth of books written about various facets of C++. Rust in contrast has few libraries, fewer tools, and little to no documentation for most of what it does have. This isn't to say Rust is bad, it's simply new and building up documentation takes time.
