Should I use Rust and Go together or just Go? (lemmy.world)

So I want to make a new project. It will have a website and an algorithm which will handle the requests. The thing is, web development in Rust feels harder than say in Go or Python. So I thought maybe I could somehow make bindings in Rust for Go since the faster the algorithm is, the better. However, that seems to complicate stuff as well. So do you think I should just rewrite the current algorithm in Go? Is it fast enough for it to not be a noticeable difference?

Edit: Thanks for the suggestions and advice! I decided to go with Rust for the website with Axum and the algorithm as well.

The right answer is definitely PHP.

🙄 PHP is great for most things. I can't believe it's 2024 and this terrible relic from 15 years ago still persists.
