Compile times and painful to refactor codebase are rust’s main drawbacks for me though.
It’s totally subjective but I find the language boring to use. For side projects I like having fun thus I picked zig.
To each his own of course.
- nicce 1y ago> refactor codebase are rust’s main drawbacks Hard disagree about refactoring. Rust is one of the few languages where you can actually do refactoring rather safely without having tons of tests that just exist to catch issues if code changes.
- rastignack 1y agoLifetimes and generic tend to leak so you have to modify your code all around the place when you touch them though.
- xedrac 1y agoExplicit lifetimes are not super common, and I haven't had any trouble with them causing refactor headaches. Generics obviously do leak, the same way that C++ templates do.
