Florent Bécart, CTO at Nikulipe,
sits down with Luca Palmieri.

Florent discusses Nikulipe’s reasons for adopting Rust: lower operational costs, scalability, safety, security and
maintainability. Nikulipe has also made a bet on Rust for its frontend development needs, using Yew and WebAssembly.

The interview closes with an overview of the challenges they faced, including long compile times and workspace management.
