Hi there!

Sure thing. I basically was playing with an RPC framework to make my old company project fast in 2017 see github.com/smfrpc/smf

I wanted to play with dpdk then.

When I started this in 2019 I wanted to use a framework that was battle tested, so seastar.io fit the bill.

There is also a big part of it that I had been professionally programming in c++ for many many years.

Last, this evolved from a prototype on my laptop in miami to company.

I think rust would he am excellent choice as well and I bet we'll write a bunch of rust in the not too distant future.
