@veer66 Actually their reasoning is perfectly valid, it's exactly the same as my thinking for PineTime Smart Watch on Rust...

(1) Fuchsia Core Kernel is coded only in C/C++ because it's really low level. And things may go wrong when we code low level in Rust. Just like my use of Mynewt OS (coded in C).

(2) Fuchsia Apps should support C and C++ because they are still the most popular languages for embedded apps and libraries. So porting existing apps and libraries to Fuchsia should be easy.

(3) New Fuchsia Apps should probably be done in Rust and Dart. They may call C and C++ libraries if necessary. On PineTime I'm also building new apps on Rust (like the CHIP-8 Emulator)
