Rust's package manager has many great features, but it went the other way around. Mozilla hired one of the authors of rubygems and yarn to re-implement their better ideas.

This is true, but so is the grandparent. Poetry, for example, cites Cargo as an inspiration. build2 describes itself as something "that aims to approximate Rust Cargo's convenience for developing and packaging C/C++ projects." I believe Go's "dep" was Cargo inspired as well, though that didn't work out.

Yarn came after cargo was started, I'm fairly sure.
