    Rust itself doesnt get mant CVEs and its been quiet so thats nice.

    its worth noting its a bit different than languages I listed and lower-level. Those languages are also runtimes that provide a large set of features that run with your code.

    That means while you could write websites in Rust, reall it is what you might consider writing PHP in if you started in 2026 not an alternative. Its more closely like MUSL(did get a recent big security release 🙄) or glibc.
