Incidentally, that's one of the reasons for which Rust is so successful in this space. Rust won't magically make you productive in a week-end, but the Rust compiler (with its error messages) is pedagogic enough that it is going to help you learn from your mistakes. That's the extreme opposite of raw C (or raw JavaScript, etc.) in which it's very easy to believe that you have solved an issue, only to realize much later that you've been entirely misunderstanding some constructions of the language and (if your code somehow managed to land) you have made the entire product unstable or insecure without realizing it. Of course, there are tradeoffs to each approach. But I believe that investing in Rust was a great initiative from Mozilla.
