gollark: What do the people of here think of Erlang?
gollark: I've finished rewriting my project in Rust (using warp - it was a very simple project, and I started yesterday using rocket, which I decided I didn't like), and it works nicely, yay! The new version is a lot faster and should actually work well on my phone.
gollark: Specifically, music file metadata parsing (I'm using an old binding to `taglib` for that).
gollark: Libraries for the specific random stuff I need are already scarce in Rust. I don't want to use what's probably a less supported language.
gollark: What are good Rust web frameworks these days? I'm rewriting my project in Rust (the backend part is only 50 lines, so it should be easy) but don't really know the current state of things.
