Key differences between Rust and Elm
Characteristic | Rust | Elm |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Rust has a C-like syntax with a focus on safety and performance. | Elm has a syntax inspired by Haskell and is designed for building web applications. |
Paradigm | Rust is a multi-paradigm language that supports imperative, functional, and object-oriented programming. | Elm is a functional programming language that encourages immutable data and pure functions. |
Typing | Rust has a strong static type system with type inference. | Elm has a strong static type system with type inference and no runtime type errors. |
Performance | Rust is known for its high performance and low-level control over system resources. | Elm prioritizes developer productivity and simplicity over raw performance. |
Libraries and frameworks | Rust has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, but it may not have as many options as more established languages. | Elm has a small but curated set of libraries and frameworks specifically designed for building web applications. |
Community and support | Rust has a vibrant and active community with good documentation and support. | Elm has a smaller community compared to Rust, but it is known for its helpful and friendly community. |
Learning curve | Rust has a steep learning curve due to its focus on memory safety and low-level programming concepts. | Elm has a relatively gentle learning curve, especially for developers familiar with functional programming. |
