Rust is a programming language that’s focused on safety, speed, and concurrency. Its design lets you create programs that have the performance and control of a low-level language, but with the powerful abstractions of a high-level language. These properties make Rust suitable for programmers who have experience in languages like C and are looking for a safer alternative, as well as those from languages like Python who are looking for ways to write code that performs better without sacrificing expressiveness.

Great! I'm also a beginner with Rust but it seems to have everything I've wanted in a language (staticly typed, runtime-free, first-class immutabilty). And as a frontender the WebAssembly support makes it extra-interesting.
The Rust book has a great summary for you:
It is suitable for people writing:
Hope that helps!
I was wondering this too after seeing a lot of people use it for Advent of Code! I might check it out, too, it sounds neat.

Thanks for the answer. Looks like I'll enjoy learning Rust 😀
