I'd suggest Go ahead of Rust. It's more accessible to contributors.

What would make go more "accessible to contributors" than Rust?

reply
Mature tui packages like bubbletea, lipgloss. Besides TS resemblance to go could push the movement of rewrite, not necessarily easier though.

CC isn't foss in the first place, so the previous comment falls short.

Go is a language one can learn and become functional in an afternoon. Rust is way more involved.

Even then, you still need to read that code and Rust is way less read friendly than Go.

agents don't really care and they're doing anywhere between 90-100% of the work on CC. if anything, rust is better as it has more built-in verification out of the box.
