What's your editor? (kbin.social)

Simple question. What do you use for editing Rust code? Why?

I'll start. I use VS Codium, but every now and then I give Neovim and even GNOME Builder a shot.

Mostly helix. Love it. Not bloated, works well out of the box. Easy to configure. Quite well documented.

VS code + rust code analyzer

I stick with it because I have settings and plugins for other languages that are required for my work

Neovim + lspconfig + rust-analyzer. I went to VSCode couple of months but came back in a day. Its so slowwwwwwwwwwwwww.....

Not rust-specific, but I use Neovim. For rust, TS and Rust Analyzer Lsp are awesome!

I use Neovim, either with kickstarter.vim config or with astronvim.

I used VS Code, but it simply got to slow on my laptop of 12 years age. I therefore started to use helix and got hooked by the ideas of key bindings.

I then heard that Copilot X will / would work on neovim, and I might give it a try in the future I switched to neovim. Although still early I don't regret it at all. I finally understood why people are using it.
