The main advantage of Rust is that once the app compiles, it's likely to run quite smoothly.
The syntax is strict, but this avoids some bugs that would have taken time to spot at runtime.
For some use cases, this is a time saver. For everything else, you may spend more time fighting the compiler than you would have done debugging these issues afterwards.
But yeah, it's a language that constantly makes you feel stupid. The compiler is barfing errors that are hard to understand, for code that looks trivial.
