  My employer, Cloudflare, uses Rust as part of our mobile app for 1.1.1.1. It’s still rough around the edges, you basically integrate Rust like you would a C dependency, but it’s been working great. There are some backend web development deployments at other companies, but the ecosystem has been changing a lot over the last year. It’s starting to settle down though. Expect more “Flask” and less “Rails.”
