I think so, I wrote an entire video game from scratch in Rust and my experience has been absolutely delightful. I have to manage nulls via Options, cast things explicitly, cannot do dumb stuff like modifying an array while iterating it, etcetera. It’s guiding my code in ways that I wasn’t able to myself, and eventually leading to essentially what is a bug-free game. Imagine! The experience has been far more than just borrow checking, it’s opened up my mind to a lot of concepts that my previous trials with Java, JavaScript, and Python fully obscured in arcane ways. Rust’s compiler is wonderful, and once you get past the ergonomic struggles (which I did by just going through Advent of Code), you’re set.
