> What's people's thoughts on learning languages with basic editors first before switching to IDEs?
When I started learning Rust 6 months ago, I asked myself this question.
I chose to use rustfmt so I could spend more time worrying about what my code was doing as I modified it and less time over what any Rust style guide might say.
I chose to not use anything else though. My focus was on learning the language and not getting a project done. With that in mind, I wanted the learning process of digging through the documentation to become familiar with what is available rather than just doing "auto complete programming".
