USRust vs Go for backend development in 2025
Programming & Development
I'm starting a new backend project and trying to decide between Rust and Go. Both seem to have grown in popularity over the past few years.
What are the pros and cons of each for backend development in 2025? I'm particularly interested in:
- Performance characteristics
- Developer productivity
- Ecosystem maturity
- Job market demand
- Learning curve
Would appreciate insights from those who have used both languages in production!
