Feel like everyone's been telling me it's the best thing since sliced bread. I'm just a hobbyist with like a single big project I'm maintaining but I'm starting to hate the code and idk maybe I should rewrite it in rust. Idk

The code is in Typescript. It's the backend of a web app that's all. Doesn't really need to be in Rust but idk I just want to make something that doesn't use more resources than it needs to. Just to be neat :D

Purescript is also really great if you want what Typescript promised you but failed to deliver.

For certain backends, especially the kind that generates static pages, functional code like Haskell works well, and brings a different kind of "cleanness".

Just in case you hadn't considered it.

You might give Go (Golang) a try. It's lighter weight than Java, pretty fast, and easy to use.
