I'm very spoiled from C# and Visual Studio 2019. I have recently started working professionally in Rust and while I do feel the drop in ergonomics, half of the problem is from downgrading from full IDE like Visual Studio to Visual Studio Code. I'd say what I currently miss the most in Rust+VSCode is better debugging experience. I used to mostly develop features and fix bugs via interactively using the debugger and immediate window in C# while here it's not possible
- swiley 6y agoI'm normally pretty anti IDE but one thing visual studio got really really right was the debugger UI. GDB isn't too bad but it's no visual studio.

(I have VS2019 installed, and use the rust-analyzer vscode plugin)
