Add:
* A build system
* A package manager with powerful features
* A toolchain manager for getting different version of compiler etc
* Code generation in the language
* Build scripts in the language
* A test framework
And when I write "a test framework" or "a package manager", it's not just that it has one, but that it has one.
On the mainstream question, since I told friends and colleagues I'm learning Rust, I get a lot of statements like "I think I should learn that too, it looks like its going to take off". That is a strong signal that it has already taken off. Like once regular investors have heard of some stock (or bitcoin).
I have many colleagues who have foresworn C++ but are liking Rust (myself included).
