Rust vision group seeks enumeration of language design goals
"The group made the following specific recommendations: Enumerate and describe Rust design goals and integrate them into processes, helping to ensure these are observed by future language designers and the broader ecosystem. Double down on extensibility, introducing the ability for crates to influence the development experience and the compilation pipeline. Help users to navigate the crates.io ecosystem and enable smoother interop."
"In seeking to explain developers' strong loyalty to Rust, the vision doc group found that, based on interviews of Rust users, developers love Rust for its balance of virtues including reliability, efficiency, low-level control, supportive tooling, and extensibility. Additionally, one of the most powerful aspects of Rust cited by developers is the way that its type system allows modeling aspects of the application domain. This prevents bugs and makes it easier to get started with Rust, the Rust vision doc group said."
Rust should enumerate and describe design goals and integrate them into processes to ensure future designers and the broader ecosystem observe them. Crates should gain greater influence over the development experience and the compilation pipeline by doubling down on extensibility. Navigation of the crates.io ecosystem should be improved and interop should be smoother. Developers value Rust for its balance of reliability, efficiency, low-level control, supportive tooling, and extensibility. Rust's type system enables modeling of application domains, helps prevent bugs, and lowers the barrier to getting started with the language.
