I gave #RustRover a try for 3 months.
I think it's great for Rust itself, especially for the excellent language support, but overall, the editor experience and Git UX held me back.
Ended up going back to Visual Studio Code, but I'm not excluding going back in the future if things improve.

@rogerparkinson Using #Java software to write #Rust doesn't seem right. That's why I ditched #RustRover (actually written in #Kotlin, but still on #JVM), that's superior to #Eclipse.
I used Eclipse #CDT for almost 10 years some time ago, but it became a burden at some point. Then #VSCode appeared... and then #Zed.
I still use last two, as Zed doesn't have any preview extensions due to lack of built in webview support.

JetBrains RustRover gefällt mir besser als ein Visual Studio Code mit drölfzig Plugins.
Und es funktioniert auch auf Anhieb alles. Muss nichts einrichten oder konfigurieren. So mag ich das!

For my #Rust projects, I’ve finally migrated from #RustRover to @zed.
RR is a great IDE, but it feels much too bloated for me. #Zed, on the other hand, is a pleasure to use. So smooth!
Here’s my current config including a beautiful theme based on monokai-pro https://github.com/0xdea/dotfiles/tree/main/zed/.config/zed

I like RustRover as an IDE for Rust. It's pretty fast and has mostly working code completion. But I have not been able to get it to recognize Protobuf types. The application compiles and runs fine, but RustRover can not seem to find the generated types. This makes editing much more distracting than it needs to be as a bit part of the code is red when it doesn't need to be. Or perhaps something is not included correctly but the compiler manages to handle it?

Greeted by this damn “RustRover goes AI” modal this morning.
As LLMs are soooo goood, there’s only a single, “Let’s go”, button. To not “Go” you need to close the window.
Nice work JetBrains, dark patterns are always a display of great self confidence.
I’ve been a license holder for years, this might be the last straw. -
RustRover seems to be able to somehow break its view of the world. I have a Protobuf file that's compiled with a build.rs using prost_build::compile_protos(). It works fine, my app uses the created structs andfunctions fine, compiles ok and runs fine. Yet RustRover does not see the symbols and shows everything as undefined. Something is cached somewhere and I can't figure out what.

A bit conflicted about this, 'cause I'm not a big fan of #aiassisted coding...
Anyways, the new "Review Solution with AI" action in @jetbrains #RustRover is pretty slick! It's very convenient to have a quick way to check if my #Rust code is idiomatic or could be otherwise improved.

It took a lot of tinkering, but finally, I did it. I have my favorite font in PyCharm's and WebStorm's terminal.
Here is how you can do it too:

@mattesilver None. #RustRover is written in #Kotlin and has #JetBrains' own analyser for #Rust. Plus it's proper IDE, kind of heavy.
#Lapce, #Zed, #VSCode are editors running #rust-analyzer in the background using LSP. They're much more lightweight, less feature bloated.
It's really matter of taste and preference what to choose.

Rust vs. Python: Finding the right balance between speed and simplicity
#Python #Pycharm #Comparison #Rustrover -
My first foray into #rust by creating a console app and tinkering with OpenCV through #opencv crate. Also using #rustrover
-
I use #NeoVim, vi edit-mode in #bash, and #ideavim in #pycharm and #rustrover. In Bash, (once you hit Esc) you can edit in the line, or hit v to open up $EDITOR. But in the line, it’s really only vi, not Vim! So you can’t daw or ciw. Turns out I use the word text-object all the time! Very frustrating!
