I think it's valuable to ask "stupid questions" like this. Can I try this out? Yes, but without looking at the page, I estimate that it'll take me 30 minutes minimum to get rust downloaded and installed, and figure out how to build the project. That's not something I'll do on a short break from work, for example. If somebody has some experience with the project in, then I'll be satisfied with that for now, and maybe enticed to try it when I do have the time. I'm gonna guess that there are quite a few lurkers with the same question, some curiosity, and not enough time or motivation to answer it for themselves immediately.
