  3. I don't know the answer to how Neon would affect that, but AFAIK, you can already do this: http://julienblanchard.com/2015/rust-on-aws-lambda/ But that uses a shell command. There's also this way to do so using FFI (article is about C++, but I'm pretty sure you could do the same with Rust): http://benchling.engineering/crispr-aws-lambda/

  5. > Except the tooling, could be better. A language like Rust will benefit from a rich IDE a lot. I just found this link[1] for a pretty complete Emacs IDE-like setup the other day. I'm not a Rust programmer, but it seemed promising enough that it made me want to give it a spin. [1] http://julienblanchard.com/2016/fancy-rust-development-with-...
