[RFC] Rust support

Wow, this is a cool idea 🚀

Initially, we wanted to make it be general-purpose, so such proposals completely suit the purposes of the hintman.

I think we would need to think about the config first as you mentioned and to decide with the format so that it would be possible to setup up it for other languages and extend if necessary.

Sorry, if it would take some time to decide on that, as we are a bit short on time at the moment, but it should go faster after the holidays 🙂
Also, as none of us knows Rust, it could probably take more time to get into Rust tools and how to use it. Currently, we are using HLint as a library, which makes things easier a bit.

I'm always open for guiding/assistance, if needed. Also, once configuration issue will be solved, I can provide (at least initial/draft) implementation, of course.

Sure! We aren't bothered with deadlines, are we? 😉

@vrom911 Thanks for writing this! These are my thoughts as well. I only want to add that we deploy Hintman to heroku using thestack buildpack:
