VsCode because I'm basic like that :^)
I am not a hardcore programmer, but anytime I code anything, I use vscodium. It is VScode without the microsoft telemetry.
That sounds great! Does it support the plugins as well?
It has the same plugin system, but they pull from Open VSX rather than Microsoft's extension marketplace. If there's an extension not available there, you can still download it from Microsoft's marketplace and then add it manually.
I love using helix. Not really an IDE, but since it has built-in support for language servers like rust-analyzer, it can do everything I need.
I'm just waiting for the inbuilt file explorer to stabilise. The only thing I miss is easy file navigation. The fuzzy searcher just isn't what I want most of the time.
I see. I used to use things like nerdtree in vim, but when switching to helix I just accepted the fuzzy file search, and now I don't see why I would ever need anything else to open files.
No one has said Emacs yet, I was a long time vim/neovim user but switched a couple of years ago, still learning rust but it's been pretty comfy so far, plus I can wash my dishes in it.
Neovim all the way!
Rustanalyzer is seamless with it and I never have issues with multiple instances running
I also use Neovim with coc-rust-analyzer as my daily setup, although, for large projects, it eats up to 4GB of RAM :/
vscode. I think anything that supports LSP works well with rust, but my vscode setup is comfy enough and devcontainers are rather nice.
Helix, great out of the box experience and is written in Rust itself.
I used to use CLion for rust but lately I've switched to VScode with rust-analyzer and it is pretty good, so I've more or less switched to it.
Also helix mentioned here looks interesting, I might try it out.
Neovim. Its awesome with the rust plugin. Everything works and it's fast.
I'm not a rust dev but ran into Lapce recently which seemed to be vscode like IDE for rust made in Rust.
Helix text editor
VScode. It works mostly fine for me, using rust-analyzer and CodeLLDB
Helix is neat but not a full IDE. After a while I'm much more efficient and basically don't use the mouse anymore. https://helix-editor.com/
Once I started using CLion I couldn't go back
Wow, no one mentioning IntelliJ?? I use the free edition with Rust and it works great... the only thing missing is a debugger, which requires the CLion distribution which is not free... but so far that hasn't been a big problem for me.
I alternate between CLion and VSCode depending on what I'm doing. CLion has nice refactoring tools, but VSCode has much better GitHub Copilot integration.
Kakoune for all languages :-)
