Why should I use Rust programming language?
Rust is a statically-typed programming language designed for performance and safety, especially safe concurrency and memory management. Rust solves problems that C/C++ developers have been struggling with for a long time: memory errors and concurrent programming. This is seen as its main benefit.
Is Rust programming worth learning?
Yes it is. Rust is awesome in what it achieves – stability, safety, speed, concurrency, explicitness. It is quite a pleasure to write in (compared to say C) once you understand the principles it’s built on (most importantly, the ownership/borrowing/lifetimes model), and there are many delightful details along the way.
Is Rust better than C#?
Rust is a systems language with excellent performance, rich type system, and high portability. C# is an application language with mature ecosystems that can run your code on any platform or device. When combined together, they provide high performance, write-once-run-everywhere applications.
Is Rust good for web development?
Yes. Rust is spectacular for web development, both front and and back. For frontend development, it’s reasonable to make web apps written entirely in Rust and compiled to WASM, and in doing so you’ll be able to make apps that are of native performance and of small size as well.
Should I learn 2020 Rust?
No, Rust is not difficult, especially when you have experience in system programming. Rust is designed to solve real problems, like memory safety, and fearless concurrency. If you do not have experience in system programming, it will take you some time to understand the motivation of some designs.
Which is faster C++ or rust?
As far as speed/performance, Rust is on the same page as C++. There are situations where it is easier to write faster programs in C++ because it’s easy to ignore fundamental problems in the programs. From this small sample size, it’s clear that both are fast. Sometimes Rust is a bit faster, and sometimes C++ takes it.
