Is Rust supposed to be that hard? (lemmy.today)

I decided to adventure myself in Tauri development for a personal project, I read the entire Rust official book and followed the exercises. When I first started developing it was like if nothing I learned helped for real life projects.

Now after getting betting up every single time I touch my project, it seems I'm catching things slowly.

But I've never seen such a hard modern language, I used C and C++ before and it's incomparable.

Do you really need tauri?

Tauri is for web devs that want to make GUIs with web tech in rust. You can do GUIs without web tech.

If you really want to make a GUI with rust, you can use iced.

If you just want a GUI with web tech, do it in JavaScript+html.

If you want a GUI without web tech and don't care the language, use a GUI toolkit for your preferred language.

Learning a GUI toolkit is hard. Learning a language is hard. Learning both at the same time is even harder than the sum.
