Honestly Rust is a poor choice for scripting. It is too low level and not aimed at the same people.
Embedding a Lua engine or some language in that vein would help drive adoption a lot.
- hannobraun 5y agoHey, creator of Fornjot here. Fornjot is written in Rust, so starting with Rust as the modeling language was the most straight-forward option. I do agree that Rust is not ideal for this use case. Fornjot is architected to be language-agnostic. Long-term, I hope there will be a selection of interoperable options for the modeling language.
