What are you building with Rust?

Are you using Rust at work? Hobby projects?

I'm doing Game Dev with Rust (Godot + gdext in my case). Sadly it's just hobby projects, but would love to actually use rust (at all) at work.

I choose Rust over other languages (C#, Python, GDScript, C++, etc), because I enjoy writing in Rust.

I love that it's so concise and easy to read, while providing super useful errors at compile time, and great auto-completion thanks to the rust-analyzer. Despite it being a much more complicated languages than almost even C++, it provides so much useful information when writing/compiling, that running can be mostly taken for granted (but shouldn't of course).

I don't need to worry about types or pointers, but rather about writing what I want in Rust, which is simply too much fun.
