I don’t work on server code, and I think a lot of discussions are really focused on server-side work. I have done desktop, mobile, and developer tools (CLIs and “scripts”). If I was working on a server thing Kotlin would seem really good. In my work it is obviously applicable to Android, but not so much elsewhere. I think Rust is nearly perfect for developer CLIs, you don’t really need to deal with the thorny memory and lifetime stuff because most things are allocated on the stack and the entire program is synchronous. clap is very good. Performance, especially startup performance, is incredible.
