Anything that is ported to AROS is a benefit to AROS Smile so in a general sense: Yes.

However, the language is new and not many developers have embraced it fully yet. It's slowly gaining ground with large companies and for what I have seen, it seems to have a large learning curve.

If it can be compiled for AROS, then why not?

Hi, Smile
infact i was not thinking of porting it to AROS, instead i thought if it could be used in the AROS codebase.
mostly rust is a trend as the C sucessor ( https://www.darpa...-c-to-rust ), probably the memory safe is the most apparent benefits, but maybe there are others. Rust is a new generation language (like zig and go), so maybe could have others benefits, but i dont have the knowledge to evaluate what benefits and where it could happen.

since i started following AROS i learned a lot (lots of really clever devs around), back than i just knew basic, i learned a little of php, javascript, java and python, and i plan to learn some C and Verilog, but i also look on the new generation stuff (im quite old, 50, but learn this was almost my unique path left), so i asked cause: 1) maybe aros could benefit from it, 2) maybe i could learn from some explanation post about the subject Smile

Best regards,
ps: people are rewriting some stuff in rust, for example:
