Though dependency management is quite easy to manage in rust (as with many high level languages) whereas I would argue dependency management isn't as simple in C/C++ which should boost library consumption and creation.
I know depending on boost or qt might be really easy, but the amount of different toolsets you must know to depend on randomlib is too damn high. I wish though that it doesn't end up like npm, I also hope there'll be some kind of "meta standard library" which integrates different mainstream building block libraries into something that's easy to consume coherently.
Any company that does try to work with Rust today in any vertical slightly outside of what is considered "mainstream" will likely end up having to write their own libraries for things that are already available in other languages, but that's a factor of the ecosystem's age.
