Is anyone else impressed with the quality (and speed!) of some of the tools written in Rust? I'm an avid user of fd and bat, the former being ridiculously fast. Often I find something on github, I'm impressed by the quality of the documentation, features, UI etc, then lo and behold it's written in Rust.

Another one potentially for this list is tokei[1] I was trying to count the code in our repos at work and used the venerable 'cloc' utility. It took over 5 minutes. Looking around I found tokei, written in rust. Same-ish results (more accurate actually) took 10 seconds.
