Yup, that mirrors my experience working with binary wire formats and the like.

There's also the added bonus that doing cross-platform code with Rust is a breeze. If you aren't depending on any C libraries you basically get it for free. I had a UI framework that was running on 5 different targets that was a joy to work with. I've done that in C/C++ before and it's a massive pain.

Which framework? It have not yet done any GUI with Rust, but would gladly try.
