'JetBrains, You're scaring me. The Rust plugin deprecation situation'

• stephenr 3y ago
  I'm still confused why they keep making the language specific apps, or why people use them (instead of Idea Ultimate) for that matter.

    Because the apps feature far greater functionality and features that the plugins do not. I use Rider, DataGrip and Writerside daily, but also IntelliJ when I’m working with Helm and database objects (which uses the DataGrip plugin) in the same project.

      can you elaborate on the difference(s)? Looking at https://www.jetbrains.com/products/compare/?product=idea&product=datagrip https://www.jetbrains.com/products/compare/?product=idea&pro... the only listed difference is that Datagrip says "MongoJS support" in the tooltip for the weird outlined checkbox next to the "JavaScript, TypeScript" line.

  It makes sense to deprecate something they will no longer maintain as it will probably rot and give users a bad experience, major plugins like rust needs continual nurturing and that is costly. Is the old one open source? can't someone pick it up and run with it?
