I don't really buy Rust learning curve. The good IDE integration and package management makes it all a breeze. VScode with RLS is great. I went from zero to fully shipped software inside a week, with meager C++ knowledge beforehand. Only trouble was understanding lifetimes and getting the borrow mechanics solidified in my spine. The entire set of language constructs is actually very small, there's just a couple of new unfamiliar concepts. Biggest downside compared to C++ is absolutely library support. Sorely missing many powerful C++ libraries.
