Is Rust supposed to be that hard? (lemmy.today)

I decided to adventure myself in Tauri development for a personal project, I read the entire Rust official book and followed the exercises. When I first started developing it was like if nothing I learned helped for real life projects.

Now after getting betting up every single time I touch my project, it seems I'm catching things slowly.

But I've never seen such a hard modern language, I used C and C++ before and it's incomparable.

Rust is much easier than writing correct C++ by discipline. Which is almost impossible for newcomers - C++ has not even a complete list of constructs that trigger Undefined Behaviour. And new programmers are not educated about Undefined Behaviour. Writting correct, well defined multi-threaded code is expert stuff in C++.
