There's some amount of boilerplate that is unavoidable, but, if you have the patience, `macro_rules!` type macros can help cut down on syntactical boilerplate in many cases. Compared to C, and sometimes C++, there's generally less boilerplate in Rust. Compared to more traditional web languages, though, Rust will seem to have more boilerplate due to it's lower-level design.
