Rewriting code in rust is new fashion, so for the purpose of publicity anyone writing anything in Rust will put the language name in headline.
But I believe this trend started with Go lang and later picked up by rust community.
It's nice to see some F# code. I am happy a lot of new programming language innovations happening, I did not pick up rust, because the programming paradigm is similar to other programming language with focus on memory safety. I will try F# may be later, these days more busy with learning lisp as many people recommend it to become a better programmer even though it's not popular as Go and Rust.

- dragonsh 7y agoYou might be right, when node js was becoming popular. Personally I observed it only when I myself started programming in go, at one point in time in the early 1.0 version.
