I have totally disagree here.
I don't even look at crate versions but the stuff works, very well. The resulting code is stable, robust and the crates save an inordinate amount of development time. It's like lego for high end, high performance code.
With Rust and the crates you can build actual, useful stuff very quickly. Hit a bug in a crate or have missing functionality? contribute.
Software is something that is almost always a work in progress and almost never perfect, and done. It's something you live with. Try any of this in C or C++.

- littlestymaar 1y agoWell, on the flip side with C++ some of it hasn't been updated beyond very basic maintenance and you can't even understand the code if you are just familiar with more modern C++…
- pjmlp 1y agoWell it is upon each one to be good with their craft. If not, the language they pick doesn't really make a difference in the end. It is like complaining playing a music instrument to be in band or orchestra requires too much effort, naturally.
