I for one totally agree on rust being easier to learn than Javascript. I suspect it is because of the explicitness of rust vs the flexibility of javascript where you can do literally anything you wish without any sort of guard rails, then there's the ecosytem with like a gazillion tools in your build pipeline. I really admire front end devs because they do what I cannot, I guess i'm not as clever a programmer, I need the compiler to hold my hand , lead the way, and yell at me when I am going astray, rust does that for me , and when I'm done obiding by the rules, cargo is there to take over the rest of the process.

I've yet to see any mention of immutable data types, which I find I would use more than even generics.
