> My primary experience from Rust comes from working with it for a little more than 2 years at a previous startup. This project was a cloud-based SaaS product that is, more-or-less, a conventional CRUD app I think this should be at the top of the post. Rust seems like an obvious bad choice for this. For something not performance-sensitive that doesn't require most of Rust's power just use languages/frameworks that are made for this kind of thing. Of course you can do this with Rust, but you're probably picking the wrong tool for the job. The Rust ecosystem around building typical webservices isn't nearly as good as it is for other languages, and the benefit you get from Rust's safety and performance is worth less than the iteration speed you gain from the standard Node/Python/etc approach.
