Building consistent frontends for all platforms isn’t easy in rust, so they use web standards for that.

The author's comment appears AI generated (or at very least heavily edited) and (imo) should be taken with a grain of salt. Very probable they don't know or/and thought of any of the usability/maintenance/performance considerations/costs mentioned within and they just blindly accepted whatever Claude generated.

So maybe Rust isn't the best tool for the job.
