Learn more about how the Rust programming language shares many of the advantages offered by Haskell such as a strong type system, great tooling, polymorphism, immutability, concurrency, and great software testing methodologies. Rust is a good choice when you need to squeeze in extra performance.

it seems that fpcomplete do more rust stuff than haskell these days. I kept seeing snoyman appear in rust channel very often.

I mean, it's a pretty good language :big_smile:

But yeah - in same way as low-level/performance/mutable stuff in Haskell is inconvenient, high-level/reusable/elegant code can be hard in language with primary purpose of making mutability safe...
