why rust?
hate loading times? rust is as C++ fast and unfortunately not easier to program than “user friendly” as C++
(from src): Performance: Fast and memory-efficient, suitable for critical services, embedded devices, and easily integrated with other languages.
-
Reliability: Our rich type system and ownership model ensure memory and thread safety, reducing bugs at compile-time.
-
Productivity: Comprehensive documentation, a compiler committed to providing great diagnostics, and advanced tooling including package manager and build tool (Cargo), auto-formatter (rustfmt), linter (Clippy) and editor support (rust-analyzer).
why the name?
why the dirty name? usually users associate rust with metal that is broken down by oxygen into not-so-usefull dirt
“named it Rust, after a group of remarkably hardy fungi that are, he says, “over-engineered for survival”” (src)
