Well I guess that solves the issue for one OS/distro.

It’s probably not _why_ they did it, but I certainly like that regardless of OS, installation is the same and it’s reliable.




It is a major part of why we did it. Giving everyone a nice flow for getting up and going matters for adoption.


That’s awesome.

For what it’s worth, I had a C# dev who’d never dealt with Rust at all before get themselves setup, and then compiling and running the Rust app by themselves in about 10 minutes flat (our internet is slow) and I definitely think the ease of the setup flow contributed to that hugely, so massive thanks for making it so nice.
