I really like Julia as a language but I have struggled to adopt it and be productive in it. Part of it is because of the JIT runtime and a sub-par LSP (at least when I last tried).

To those who regularly write Julia code, what is your workflow? The whole thing with Revise.jl did not suit me honestly. I have enjoyed programming in Rust orders of magnitude more because there's no run time and you can do AOT. My intention is not write scripts, but high performance numerical/scientific code, and with Julia's JIT-based design, rapid iteration (to me at least) feels slower than Rust (!).
