Identifying Barriers to Adoption for Rust through Online Discourse

Authors: Anna Zeng and Will Crichton

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 67, 9th Workshop on Evaluation and Usability of Programming Languages and Tools (PLATEAU 2018)

Abstract
Rust is a low-level programming language known for its unique approach to memory-safe systems programming and for its steep learning curve. To understand what makes Rust difficult to adopt, we surveyed the top Reddit and Hacker News posts and comments about Rust; from these online discussions, we identified three hypotheses about Rust's barriers to adoption. We found that certain key features, idioms, and integration patterns were not easily accessible to new users.
