Agree a lot with that. I write quite a bit of code in Rust and I use the JetBrains CLion IDE with the IdeaVim and Rust plugins.
CLion is very helpful when working with Rust code. It understands the language quite well and because of that it can help you by pointing out things that aren't going to work without having to constantly recompile your code.
For students and faculty members, JetBrains give out licenses free of charge that are valid for 1 year, and which can be renewed while you are still a student or faculty member. https://www.jetbrains.com/student/ https://www.jetbrains.com/student/
- Filligree 7y agoDoes it work any different from the Rust plugin for IDEA?
- runevault 7y agoIt gives debug support in CLion which IDEA does not have last I knew.
- codetrotter 7y agoI haven't tried IDEA so I can't compare it. All I can say is that CLion is great :) If you write a lot of Rust, I suggest that you download the 30 day evaluation version of CLion and install the Rust plugin and see how it compares.
