fleet VS rust-analyzer

fleet is an awesome tool for faster builds for non-production purposes. In some cases it gave me 10-15x compilation speed.

one simple way is to use fleet, they have collected most of optimizations possible for building.

Hey there! I’m Grinder, the community manager of Dimension. Dimension is an awesome project that has published a ton of useful open source projects, such as fleet and volt. You can view our Github for all our projects that we’ve released.

We’ve created awesome things, such as fleet and volt.

Since each Letlang module compiles to a single crate, crates are very small and their build can be parallelized quite easily (see https://github.com/dimensionhq/fleet). My hypothesis is that this will help reduce build time.

go build 3.62s user 0.76s system 171% cpu 2.545 total

I was looking forward to parallel front-end[4], but I have not seen any improvement for these small changes.

For example, intelephense can show diagnostics in real time, there is no need to save the file to get new diagnostics. But rust-analyzer, the language server for rust, can only update diagnostics after saving the file.

6. Rust Analyzer

The rust-analyzer readme suggests you go here for support request. But even there, you'll need to provide more details to get useful help.

For example: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-analyzer/blob/master/docs/...

> If you create an LSP, it will work best in VS Code.

Any editor can work just as well as (or even better than) VS Code.

So, apparently the reason why rust-analyzer, the LSP server for Rust does not have persistent caching is because it would make "optimizing initial passes less important".

All I want to know is: Will it have a build configuration pulldown?

I am not a Rust dev. It surely looks great.

However, from what I understand it seems to supply just a parser separate from the Rust compiler (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-analyzer/tree/master/crate...) trying to keep up with Rust‘s development. So, in principle, it could have been just another treesitter parser plugin, too.

So, again, the LSP framework does not directly provide any magical benefit over a static parsing framework. All the semantic analysis capabilities stem from a good parser.
