I would personally never reach for Rust for a project unless I needed bare-metal performance. I can make API calls + database calls + interact with USB devices/filesystems in node.js with much less complexity and a much stronger ecosystem.
- steveklabnik 7y agoI don't know why you're downvoted; this is a decent argument in my opinion. Node has a fantastic ecosystem, and API + database calls (aka, IO) are its bread and butter. We see people switch from Rust to node due to scale and reliability. If you're not feeling those pains from Node, then you should absolutely keep using it!
- MuffinFlavored 7y agoDo you mean to Rust from node?
- steveklabnik 7y agoYes.
