I have found that as I gain experience with rust, I spend less and less time “upfront to compile and fix all warnings”. I think rust requires a different design philosophy. It just takes time to adopt it into your mind.

That's true for me as well, but I learned these after many failures. Now, I start by writing enums and structs for the problem, then iterate the design with functions and if it's really needed add these functions as impl of a certain struct/enum. This is the inverse of "Object-Oriented" design where one has to start from interfaces and manipulate data to satisfy the interfaces.

  Sounds like Go. Just write code, then see if any obvious interfaces pop up and if you need them.

    I wrote servers in Go as well, and I like the language. After Rust, I believe at some point, I enjoy to solve the "problems" Rust brings, not that it's rationally better than Go.
