Discussion on: Why there seem to be less opportunities in Rust (right now) ?

Yes Jonathan Boudreau, even when I think of Rust in Web related works, Most advantages I can see are in type system and catching compile-time errors. There were few incidences where I called redirect on res object instead of req or incorrectly called a method on an object in python, which were only detected when I hit that route while testing. But with Typescript for JS, and introduction of type annotations for python, these advantages in Rust doesn't seem to give much benefits compared to cost.

Thank for sharing your thoughts Gerard Klijs 😄
