Known weaknesses

Each one links to the public issue, changelog or docs page it came from, where we have one.

1. 01

   Steep learning curve for non-Rust developers

   Delta is written in Rust, which has a different syntax and paradigm compared to more popular languages like Python or Java.

2. 02

   Limited community support and resources

   Due to its niche language choice (Rust), Delta may have a smaller user base and fewer community contributions, tutorials, and forums.

3. 03

   Potential for frequent breaking changes

   As an open-source project with rapid development cycles, Delta might introduce frequent API changes that require significant updates to existing projects.

4. 04

   Complex setup process

   Setting up a Rust-based environment for machine learning can be complex due to the need for specific toolchains and dependencies not commonly found in more mainstream ML frameworks.

What it does well

• High-performance computing capabilities in Rust

• Modular design for flexibility and extensibility

• Efficient memory management
