Yes, unfortunately. There is a lot of tooling around it but it still feels bizarre after years of using it.

Hell yea. Can't forget those compile times and that parallelism handling. I can't think of a language that has a better dev cycle to performance ratio.

I love Go precisely because of its simplicity which also makes it highly consistent across different codebases. That said I do like the new direction of adding some features devs are clamoring for with helper functions and memory arenas.

Forgot to mention that compile time....hnngg.

why? You can codegen from rs to ts for types. I fully understand wanting to learn Rust or test frameworks. It's a great language, but it feels like a huge risk to bet on an unproven framework (and currently proven to be slower WASM) as the future of front-end, especially when there are existing frameworks that would garner more support and expertise on the front-end.
