> With an IDE like Clion + Rust Plugin, the code writes itself.
If there is any point to emphasize, it is this one. Writing Rust without a nicely tuned IDE is almost as slow as writing it using pen and paper.
Because abstractions are “zero-cost” in Rust and the type system is expressive, there are generally many more types involved and a lot of converting between them.
The IDE is very helpful in seeing what types are where, navigating to their definition, viewing their documentation, etc
