Curious: if you've built something with Rust, what was it, and why did you use Rust?
(This isn't a prelude to snark, I just started reading the Rust book last night and going down the rabbit hole 🦀)

Currently programming languages. It's the thing I know the best. It's great to have a reasonably expressive type system having my back. Also has a nice package manager, tooling, etc. The low level control over memory when I need it is nice, without compromising on memory safety.

I can also tell you what I find annoying about it if you like?
Smart pointers are great, but also annoying. Can be hard to pattern match through, for example, also makes it more clunky to construct and deconstruct tree structures.
