Look, I don’t know where we are going.

As honest as it is I can't risk using this anywhere near production if this is the attitude.

Luckily there's a lot of people who write prototype code, toy projects, and other "non-production" code that can experiment with a new project like this

I have tried it. It feels pretty good to use, but you have to keep in mind that it's very early software. They currently break the API every other week, and it's still missing a lot of fundamental features. I have made a few basic web apps with it, and on v0.8.1 it was still missing a lot of reactivity which meant you had to use Javascript to bridge the gap.

I used it in the early days, and it seems it's still the same. Thank you.

Sounds a lot like Liveview in Phoenix.

Why bother with rust when you can write it in C and ask an LLM to weed out the memory bugs?
