One year since stable? It feels like five years for the level of maturity they have achieved.

Except the tooling, could be better. A language like Rust will benefit from a rich IDE a lot.

But still the language is great.

I really wish that Jetbrains had a Rust IDE. I love their Go, and Erlang plugins for IntelliJ, Java with IntelliJ, and Clion with C. Without them, I don't think I could be anywhere as effective as I am.

I tried to pickup Rust, but I was super frustrated by the code/compile/run cycle with the current plugin. But, hopefully more users will make that better.
