Why is Rust being used to replace parts of the JavaScript web ecosystem like minification (Terser), transpilation (Babel), formatting (Prettier), bundling (webpack), linting (ESLint), and more?
Thanks, Rustlings doesn’t sound like what I want either. I was hoping for a counterpart of Stroustrup’s C++ Reference Manual, or Riehle’s “Ada Distilled” or even K&R’s book on C. Something that systematically describes the language rather than distractions like the toolchain, mini projects, cutesey analogies, etc. I’m being too persnickity though, mostly because it hasn’t been important to me so far.
