I'm currently suffering a dilemma and I’m considering using Odin over Rust.

I was hoping for friendly and positively constructive assessments of which language and why from anyone who wishes to answer?

I agree Odin is simple which is why I’m drawn to it, after all i know computer science so really i don't need a prescribed away to do something like in Rust. Rust is amazing, but it can be slow to develop in, the points is in the compiler as for a solo dev, it reduces my need for a code quality team. Odin just gets out the way and let's you get going, it's also Go like which i'm familiar with. I've been slowly planning to stick with Rust, i might help my son learn Odin though <3
