# Quote of the Week
141+
142+
> what many devs often miss initially when talking about Rust is that it isn't just about the design & details of the language (which is great), Rust's super power is that in combination with its fantastic community & ecosystem, and the amazing friendly people that create & form it
143+
144+
[Johann Andersson on twitter](https://mobile.twitter.com/repi)

146+
llogiq is pretty pleased with his own suggestion and unanimously voted for it.
