Depends, a simple hello world yes maybe then you start working on some more complex structure that are trivial to do in any other languages but you will fight hard in Rust, I invite you to look how GUI things are implemented in Rust.
Even some simple sharing can be a pain and counter intrutive.
I would add that tooling and stability are also not a thing for Rust as of now, that being said it's pretty clear that Rust is here to stay like Go.
- rhn_mk1 6y agoComplex structures are easier to get right in Rust than in mosy other languages, because the compiler railroads you into a subset of possible solutions that work correctly. That being said, those structures are a subset of all possible structures and may feel roundabout. Sharing does end up being even less obvious, but it also steers you away from bugs which would be difficult to spot in other laguages. I think it comes out even here.
- neutronicus 6y agoI confess I do find C++, warts and all, more expressive than Rust. There are little conveniences in Rust like switch / if being expressions and the ? operator, but the gimped Templates and refusal to do Implicit Conversion wind up littering boilerplate everywhere. I do somewhat prefer the way its standard library handles iterators, though.
