I highly recommend you give it a shot, it’s a modern day programming language with high level features and the speed of C that encourages memory safe code and gives you the option not to if there is something you need to do that doesn’t adhere to its rules.

Rust can be verbose at times though, but it helps make sure you know what a function takes and how it returns data. It even has the fastest regex library on the planet thanks to it’s extensive type system.

If you want to get started their book has you covered and will guide you through the basics, or you can try rustlings for a more hands on approach.

Lastly I will recommend you check out “no boilerplate” on YouTube if you want a nice video series on the various things in rust and how they are there to help you.

I suggest you give rust a shot then, they made their compiler produce meaningful errors with suggestions on how to fix your code and due to its restrictiveness many runtime errors become compiler errors.
