Comment on Go vs. Rust: Writing a CLI Tool

Comments

The conclusion missed the fact that Go is also multi-paradigm. It just misses the syntactic sugar, but that's not to say you can't use Go to program in multiple paradigms.

I don't entirely agree with the statement that Go seems to not work on Windows ("if build mostly for linux"). Go works fine on Windows, although I do agree some tooling just works better on *nix, but that goes for many langs :-)

It's good to see such a comparison form the perspective of a novice with the languages, but it'd also be interesting to get such a view from someone more experienced with both.

The source code is not bad though! Although the project structure could use some work :-)
