Introducing RustRover – A Standalone Rust IDE by JetBrains
“When will there be a Rust IDE?”
I guess this answeres my previous question about the lack of updates to the Intellij Rust plugin.
We've all seen what happens eventually with closed-source platforms
personally I'm not a fan
It’s true, but JetBrains has been pretty reliable for a closed-source company. No doubt the enshittification will eventually set in though.
@recursiverecursion @snaggen It's just a glorified text editor, if it gets too bad it's not like your hands are tied.
Right? Like, damn.
I don't care about Rust, myself, but I've been happier with Jetbrains IDEs than anything else, and then my work pays for a universal license to all of their products anyway for me.
Hm. good to have a dedicated IDE... but terrible that it's taking OSS contributions and turning them closed source...
Well, that is why some prefer a copyleft license, like the MPL.
?? Where source
From the article:
The existing open-source plugin, which we’ve been working on for a number of years, has served as the building block for RustRover. This plugin will remain open source and freely available on GitHub and the marketplace. However, moving forward, we will be investing our efforts into RustRover, which is closed source.
@snaggen not for me also. #vscode or #helixeditor are pretty neat in my opinion.
