This was my first project using anything lower level than Javascript. I had a fairly good experience, my problems stemmed more from not knowing the least bit about memory management rather than lack of libraries. In fact the libraries that are already there tend to be very well documented, with lots of examples and explanations.&lt;p&gt;1: &lt;a href=&quot;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;theremins.club&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;theremins.club&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;2: &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;runarberg&amp;#x2F;theremins&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;runarberg&amp;#x2F;theremins&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;3: &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;crates.io&amp;#x2F;crates&amp;#x2F;hyper&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;crates.io&amp;#x2F;crates&amp;#x2F;hyper&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;4: &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;crates.io&amp;#x2F;crates&amp;#x2F;ws&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;crates.io&amp;#x2F;crates&amp;#x2F;ws&lt;/a&gt;</text><parent_chain><item><author>mangeletti</author><text>I&amp;#x27;ve been excited to try Rust for some time now, but I&amp;#x27;ve been holding off, only because I&amp;#x27;m primarily developing web applications and I&amp;#x27;ve heard from a few people that Rust is better suited for other tasks (based on the built-ins, packages, etc.?), despite there being at least a few frameworks out there.&lt;p&gt;What are your thoughts on this?

The largest weakness, imho, is the lack of libraries for various standards and formats: do you really want to implement OAuth yourself? (EDIT: Apparently we do have OAuth now. ha!) The maturity of the Rails ecosystem has spoiled me.&lt;p&gt;Here&amp;#x27;s a random fact that I&amp;#x27;ve always found interesting: &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;crates.io&amp;#x2F;&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;crates.io&amp;#x2F;&lt;/a&gt; uses Rust on the server. It links to libgit, it does a lot of stuff. It uses about 30 megs of memory, resident, at all times. Coming from Rails, that&amp;#x27;s... shocking.</text><parent_chain><item><author>mangeletti</author><text>I&amp;#x27;ve been excited to try Rust for some time now, but I&amp;#x27;ve been holding off, only because I&amp;#x27;m primarily developing web applications and I&amp;#x27;ve heard from a few people that Rust is better suited for other tasks (based on the built-ins, packages, etc.?), despite there being at least a few frameworks out there.&lt;p&gt;What are your thoughts on this?
