I have used rust but I think it has another year before it really shines. 2020 is the year of Rust - async/await, tool ecosystem, various crate stability, etc is happening fast.
- pornel 8y agoWhile you'll hear Rust community often say "just wait until this new hotness", I'd like to clarify it's not like a perpetual "it will be the year of Linux Desktop". Rust has already shipped everything it needed to be production ready. We're just always excited for the next big thing. Two years ago it was incremental compilation, last year it was a new borrow checker, this year it's async/await, etc.
- steveklabnik 8y agoThis is also true. It really is about what you’re doing. Async/await in particular enables you to write idiomatic code, right now you have to twist it a bit and can’t do certain things. Other features? I agree with you.
