    It just came down to myself learning Rust several years ago. I actually used to code in Node.js and Java. Now, why I ended up sticking with Rust with this? Macros. An example of it being my scraper library. Instead of me having to redefine functions for each struct (class) that I want to apply XPATH evaluations for, the macros I made will do it for me. Proc Macros just make coding redundant things more straight-forward and easy to read. For example this is the example inside my library. This is what it (mostly) expands to once its' built. Imagine if you had to do that 20+ times. Also, it wraps an error handler around it too. Its' just more clean to work with.
