I learned rust by doing this project. didn't have much prior systems programming experience too. usually, I learn best by just trying things until they work, but building a language server is pretty complex. after reading through a lot of similar projects, biome was the easiest to reason about. and it has exactly the architecture I had in mind: a generic workspace api where the language server is just one of many entry points.

What are some of the most impactful/eye-opening lessons you learned from biome?
