With all due respect, 166 packages to compile for a 5 line hello-word is so Nodejsy. It is a smell, a red flag.
We should learn more from Go and Erlang.
I hope the Tide will do.

Yikes!
Does anyone know where I can get an overview of the entirety of rocket's dependency graph. Crates.io only lists 11 direct dependencies.
These 166 packages you need to compile Rocket, not your hello-world. Rocket itself is much more complex then your hello-world, like libc.so is much more complex than hello-world coded in C, I see nothing wrong with it. Rocket and libc.so were created for solving a wide class of problems and hello-world is just one problem from that class.
