10 years of betting on Rust and what I’m looking forward to next.
By Alec Mocatta, Founder1 Jun, 2025I wrote my first line of Rust in June 2015, a month after the buzz of Rust 1.0 landing.
The people were and are exceptionalThe Rust ecosystem has an impressive amount of programming “taste”, manifesting in dependencies with relatively simple builds, elegant implementations, and fast and robust performance.
Currently we only scratch the surface of this as only a small subset of Rust code is supported (no traits, no allocation), and that which is supported runs too slowly for nontrivial use cases.
