Yes, Rust has a questionable leadership (to say the least) and there is drama, yet again. However, don’t let this discourage you from trying it out. It’s a fantastic language with (from my personal interactions) a great community. Also great learning resources.

I used to think that Rust has really beautiful syntax. But then, I actually spent 1 year learning Rust and writing real OSS projects with it to fully understand the language. Guess what, after using the language in absolute bliss, I realised that its syntax is indeed beautiful.

This has probably been said before, but oh well - the biggest strength of @htmx_org is that you don’t have to sync (and duplicate) state between the client and the server. Your html is now a representation of your state. It’s beautiful and a lot simpler.
