I spun up a web server in Rust for a little personal project to learn, it was quite pleasant to code (and is quite fast!), if you like C and hate JS, I think you'll dig Rust. JS is an abomination (and a serious privacy and security risk) but entirely unavoidable. I appreciate the TS addition of static typing, but its still like putting lipstick on a pig.

I don't hate JS, but I do hate the fact that a bunch of script kiddies who didn't want to learn another language have promoted JS into this thing that has tentacles far outside the browser (Node, React Native, etc.).
