Re: IntelliJ Rust
#32I use this regularly. It's _pretty_ good. But autocomplete and Copilot tend to fight a fair bit.
I have a similar experience when using rust-analyzer and copilot in vscode.
Re: IntelliJ Rust
#33Serious question: why would I use this over VS Code + the Rust Analyzer extension?
I don't think you would. VSCode is free, this one is not.
Re: IntelliJ Rust
#34When I used this plugin in CLion to work on Rust projects it felt very sluggish to me (I had to re-execute Cargo commands to get it to pick up on new files etc., and autocomplete basically didn't work). Has this been fixed, or was it some error on my end?
Every HN intellij thread:
"Its sooo slow"
I am not sure why people use these tools, I've tried and they seem at best on-par, at worse, sooo much worse. I get real Microsoft vibes, a sales team comes in, takes the purchasing team to a concert/sports and dinner to 'discuss business'. And its announced that everything needs to be done on M$ sharepoint/Intellij.

I've never been wined and dined by Intellij. I just find their product very comfortable. It's always "just worked" out of the box for me. VS code I've tried a few times and it always takes a bunch of fiddling.
Less feature-ful text editors like sublime and vim just don't do it for me.

If you just "tried it", I doubt you'd seen even one percent of what they can do. I've been using IDEA for years and still learn new tricks every few days. The performance is atrocious, the well known bugs (like constantly losing caches) have been there for years, but I suffer through it because of the functionality.

I'm very happy with the Jetbrains tools, and have been happy for years. The other tools aren't slow for me, only CLion with Rust.

What language, and kind of project do you work on? And what other tools have you compared to IntelliJ in your workflow that are better, or so much better?
Re: IntelliJ Rust
#39Last time I tried this, the plugin was incapable of actually showing compile errors in the project view and they said their false positive error rate was too high to enable it ( https://github.com/intellij-rust/intellij-rust/pull/8373 ). That was a dealbreaker for me compared to VSCode. It doesn't look like that's changed?
Using it everyday and I can’t confirm this at all.
Worst case you can enable clippy to run in the background.

It’s improved a lot the last year. Check it out again
