Those Rust bindings are a joke for any serious Windows development.

If you feel like C++/WinRT development experience is bad, good luck with Rust/WinRT.

And since it is the same team leads, which clearly have proven that they don't care about developer productivity, given how they have managed the C++/CX to C++/WinRT transition, I wouldn't wait too much out of it.

And I've heard rumors the Win team is an issue in general. (As the product they ship).

But they're at least moving. And the direction is clear.
