I really enjoy Rust so far. I've been writing a relatively simple web app on Loco.rs with it, backed by a very fast multi-threaded git history parser. It's super fast and safe and catches most problems with compilation checks.

My two main problems now are 1) that AI code assistants (Claude 3.5 Sonnet) + IDE support (VS Code / Cursor AI) are still much worse than with frontend frameworks like React/VueJS. The AI suggestions are mostly terrible. 2) Compilation is really really slow. There is no hot reload, and it often takes about 1 or 2 minutes for my new code to be live in my dev server. It's a real flow-state killer. It's a bit ironic as all the Python/Javascript frameworks are now super fast because they've been rebuilt on Rust.
