waiting for a rails like framework that would let me use only one language full-stack.

Isn't this example already using Rust full-stack, or am I missing something? You still need to write HTML, but that's also the case with Ruby on Rails.

Elixir does this via Phoenix + LiveView, tho it's not quite as fully-featured as Rails.

You can definitely already do that in Rust, although I'm not sure how mature all the tooling is yet and rather than using a single framework you'd be using a few different toolsets (e.g., Actix/Rocket, Diesel, Yew).

With Stimulus Reflex we are getting pretty close.

F# does this via Fable.

This is a tangent, but does Fable still require you to manually toposort your module hierarchy in an XML file? That was my experience using the language with VS Code circa a year ago.

I've actually not been an actual user besides running a random repo to see how it all fits in nicely. But... i've been playing more with F# and it really is a fun language to use and capable.

I was able to compile a number of F# applications to "native" or as close as possible and they ended up getting significant performance improvements.

For instance a ray tracing application when compiled to native had improvements of 50%.

Hi, would you be able to give your experience in brief, how is fable? And elmish? How happy are you with fable?

C# as well via Blazor.
