AFAIK Rust isn't a great language for writing browsers, because the pattern that HTML/DOM needs isn't something that Rust supports out of the box, you need a lot of pointers here and there, IIRC Andreas Kling (Ladybird dev) said something like that, where Swift was better suited than Rust for the job, or at least more pleasant to work with after the team evaluated a few languages, including Rust.
