Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • intellij-rust

    Rust plugin for the IntelliJ Platform

  • While the macro support is definitely incomplete and has issues, simple cases like completion inside a println call are expected to work (just checked). Have you reported your case to https://github.com/intellij-rust/intellij-rust/issues?

  • rust-analyzer

    A Rust compiler front-end for IDEs

  • Does intellij clion have live error highlighting (red squiggles) as you type? I check the #3107 issue on Rust-Analyzer > once a week just hoping that some push has been made to support this

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • lapce

    Lightning-fast and Powerful Code Editor written in Rust

  • From watching a demo I think Lapce might have this built in but I haven't tried it out yet, it also looks like it isn't too far off from VS-Code in terms of it's GUI features

  • helix

    A post-modern modal text editor.

  • If Helix has this I'd be willing to give it a shot too even if it doesn't have a GUI...honestly at this point I'd be willing to learn Dvorak if it meant I could get those sweet sweet as you type squiggles back...
