That's good news as I still use Firefox. Btw, are there any good docs or blog articles on how it integrates into C or C++ code so well? I don't often see that in new languages. Leads me to wonder if there's lessons to learn there for another project.



A lot of it is simply that Rust has an equivalent amount of runtime to C and C++, so you don't have two runtimes fighting with each other. For example, when Rust had green threads, interop was much worse, due to needing to switch to a C stack, as well as the actual initialization of the runtime itself. Without it, it's as straightforward as https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11622257


Thanks for example. That's badass!
