Notes

gollark: It's not really optimised for it though. Your makefile could just call cargo to compile the rust bits.
gollark: Or which calls cargo.
gollark: Rust can bind to C perfectly well, it's done a lot.
gollark: Well, then you can have a script interface the build systems together.
gollark: You can actually create, manage and build Rust projects with simple tooling which works easily and without horrible issues, and (almost?) every library uses the same stuff so you can interoperate trivially.
