Yea, the survey says that IDE support is the third-highest item for increasing adoption (https://blog.rust-lang.org/2020/04/17/Rust-survey-2019.html#...). Rust users would benefit greatly from the Analyzer work that is in flight. Really looking forward to this becoming stable. The tooling it offers is great.


rust-analyzer is stable enough to use, and it's _awesome_.

I wish I had something this slick for Scheme, C, C++ and even C#. Omnisharp is good, but not this good.


VC++ analyser + Intellicode (AI driven intelisense)

C# Roslyn analysers or StyleCop, also on VS.

CheckStyle or PMD for Java, alongside Netbeans, Eclipse or InteliJ.

XCode analysers.

CLion Inspections.


I use omnisharp-roslyn, it's not as good as the rust-analyzer integration to lsp.

It helps that rust has incredible documentation.


So you don't use the real deal (VS), naturally the experience suffers.


I've used it and was non-plussed. I have it installed and find it too brittle to bother with.

Never in my life has Emacs segfaulted or indefinitely suspended. It was nary a day that VS would not do so.


Thing is, Emacs only edits text, even with a ton of Elisp plugins there are plenty of graphical stuff done by IDEs that it will never do.

It as a good workaround for me during the late 90's up to mid-2000 until UNIX finally got proper IDEs.

And yes, I managed to bork it multiple times.


Pffft, my code docs have artist-mode figs in them.
