Rust is a systems language, so while it is possible to build APIs with it, that's not what the language was designed for. For example, in Rust, you'll spend time thinking about memory whereas other languages will just come with GC. That being said, the developer experience and tooling for Rust is phenomenal, and some of its features such as borrow checking and lifetimes are very novel. As the language of choice for building our your API, I would recommend against Rust. But if you're into learning and exposing yourself to new things, definitely give Rust a go.
