Microsoft don't sell software in this context. They're selling a service, primarily Azure. Azure is the mainframe that you'll be running your Rust applications on and paying Microsoft the monthly rental for that.
Microsoft don't care if that is a Rust, Java, Python, Visual Basic or PowerShell application. They only care that you choose to do it in Azure (so lets learn the Microsoft centric ways early) though.
- harikb 5y agoLooking at the contents, it doesn’t seem like they are pitching Azure specifically. The Java one shown in a sibling comment does talk about Azure API. At least the work done by MS on VsCode, Language Server, TypeScript etc is truly helping whole community. May be there is something in Rust world as well.
