This article has been unanimously qualified as FUD by the Rust user community.
Nightly is for innovations and experimentations, not for real use :
- Rocket is an amazing example of innovation, but it's currently just an experimentation.
- Serde works on stable for a long time but they experimented a more ergonomic version on nightly. They iterated upon it with Rust developers to create a new and well thought stable API which will land in the next version of Rust (macro 1.1 in february).
Rocket is likely to follow Serde's path during 2017 and will eventually work on stable in 2018. Building a great langage takes time ;)
