As a sibling comment mentioned, typescript covers this more appropriately.

For most practical purposes, Golang and Java cover this. Rust / C++ is great is systems stuff, I am not going to use it for some application layer stuff, with all complexities that come with it.

Not much, really.
- jen20 5y agoI find it pretty hilarious that “too much micro libraries” is a criticism, but then you recommend TypeScript - which runs on Node.is, the progenitor of “micro libraries” in the next sentence. We’ll ignore every other bullet point containing fundamentally incorrect information also.
- chakkepolja 5y agoDidn't really say typescript is perfect. In terms of type system its just more accessible than rust. I think rust is the great language. But community is the worst thing about it.
