  • intellij-rust

    Rust plugin for the IntelliJ Platform

    macros now have a way of checking if they are run by the autocompletion engine. in that case, it's best not to output an error even if the input is malformed

  • rust-analyzer

    A Rust compiler front-end for IDEs

    fwiw, rust-analyzer cannot make use of this env var signaling a proc-macro that it is being expanded for completions currently (and is unlikely to be able to in the future) due to architecture reasons, https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-analyzer/issues/13731

  • Appwrite

    Appwrite - The Open Source Firebase alternative introduces iOS support. Appwrite is an open source backend server that helps you build native iOS applications much faster with realtime APIs for authentication, databases, files storage, cloud functions and much more!

  • web-types

    JSON standard for documenting web component libraries for IDEs, documentation generators and other tools

    There's a spec for web-types metadata, which is used for describing UI component libraries. IDEA can read these files and provide completions and inspections based on them. VSCode Vetur extension has a similar file format for describing Vue components, too.
