The Rust ecosystem shares some characteristics and idioms that are familiar and appealing to JS developers, like: - leaning on (some) pragmatic FP concepts - modern tooling and dependency management - very _approachable_ and solid documentation, books etc. (see MDN, Rust by Example, Rust Book, Eloquent Javascript...) - both can target the browser (well) - Mozilla has a very good name in the Web dev community. I think at least; this is definitely relevant to me.
