Hi,
Im working on a fairly large rust backe d which I'll release in ~3 weeks (>20k LoC).
Rust is really good (I'm using acti web), amd very low resources compared to node.
Compilation time is at the se time a disadvantage (~20sec for hot reload) and at the same time an advantage as it forces you to organize your code cleanly.
3rd party package are often very high quality and when your code compile, it (almost every time) works.
