    Don’t feel bad if jobs don’t drop out of the sky just because you learned a little rust. Rust jobs do not abound, even for experienced devs. That said, its an interesting and challenging language and doing some work in it can show you’re motivated and willing to work through some shit to get things done. Google-fu is a primary skill for everyone in the field.

      Oh I’m not doing this to primarily learn Rust for anything else other than this specific job. I am going to be looking into other languages later but this is just to put food on the table for me and the cat. It’s evidently a rather simple thing, to an extent, so hopefully it won’t take me too long.
