It is a modern, general-purpose programming language that is even an attractive alternative to Julia in some cases. I recommend reading my related blog post:

Why didn't Julia take off like Rust did? Because performance and ergonomics aren't enough as features, especially when needing to build a new ecosystem. Rust offers something unique with its borrow checker in addition to performance and ergonomics.
