Not GP but as someone who loves Rust and spent a lot of time trying to use it as a FE language, I settled on F# for my own frontend projects. It has many of the nice things Rust has (discriminated unions, pattern matching, ML inspired syntax) but is much more aimed at typical business logic apps.
With Fable compiler in the frontend and .NET core on backend, you can write the same language on both and even share interfaces, types etc. and it’s just a pleasure to use. If you haven’t tried the .NET ecosystem in the past few years, it’s come a looong way from the old windows only days.
