Posted this in sqt by accident but I think here is more appropriate:
which should I learn for the sake of productivity? Rust or C++?
I have a tool in mind that I want to make using an immediate mode gui, ie imgui or egui
other things I'll need:
http/websocket client library
JSON unmarshaling
plotting (maybe)
concurrency ideally (async/await) but it might not be necessary depending on how good single threaded performance is
It's pretty crucial that this program does not crash
to this you'll say "use rust, duh" but if rust is going to take me over a month to become productive with it then forget it
I need to balance productivity and reliability
I'm also more familiar with C++, marginally (it was my first "real" language technically but I havent used it in over a decade), so that factors into the productivity thing
Ideally I'd use Go since its uber reliable while being uber productive but I need C++ or Rust on my resume (either one)
