Once this works, Rust will be pretty darn close to perfect for CLIs. The only things missing on my list are: - convenient man page generation - auto-documenting exit codes - single-command upload to OS package managers

Also important to not forget that (web) services are CLIs - so the better Rust CLIs get, the better the service experience gets!

What's your perspective on Node.js now that you've been writing Rust?
-
Rust has a sense of consistency and polish that JS will never achieve. I like Node's ecosystem a lot! There's so many mad science things; it's wonderful. But the fragmentation of modules, async, streams, etc. is not something that will ever improve. Makes me sad.
