As someone who made this exact switch last year, here’s my take:

Yes, it’s worth it! But maybe not for the reasons you think.

Rust won’t directly make you a better JS dev. But it will teach you about memory management, systems thinking, and writing efficient code.

My path: I learned Rust by building small CLI tools, not by reading the book cover to cover. That’s way more fun!

If you want to try it, I’d suggest: The Rust Book + Rust by Example, then just start building something small.

Worst case: you learn something new. Best case: you unlock a whole new way of thinking. Win-win! 🎉

Used both extensively. Here’s the deal:

Notion: Good for teams, bad for personal knowledge management. Too slow, too much clutter.

Obsidian: The opposite. Amazing for personal notes, but sharing is painful.

Pro tip: Use both! Notion for team docs, Obsidian for your brain. That’s what I do.

vercel is best for nextjs. cloudflare is faster

next.js is standard. remix is good but next has more jobs

perplexity is for research. chatgpt is general purpose

github is standard. everyone uses it

bun is fastest. deno is more secure
