Introducing RustRover – A Standalone Rust IDE by JetBrains | The IntelliJ Rust Blog
Why is this necessary? I thought we've moved past language-specific IDEs.
We have? JetBrains never has stopped offering them.
Who wouldn't want an experience tailored to their main language? I certainly favor PyCharm over Ultimate
JetBrains is not representative of every editor / dev. Language servers mean I can use Emacs / Vim / VSCode / whatever else I want and have IDE features for whatever language I want.
Yea, I was thinking the same. I have the JetBrains toolbox, and already have these installed:
I don't really get why they need to make 10 different IDEs for every language, instead of just consolidating everything into a single UI/IDE.
For pricing it doesn't make that much sense, anyone that wants more than 2 JetBrains products is better off buying the entire toolbox.
I'm still waiting for Cobolilissimo and Fortransformer...
You know that you can use IntelliJ Idea Ultimate to get all of these in one package?
Totally agree but weren't they working on an all-in-one IDE? I think it was Fleet
And there is already the Language Server Protocol, which basically everyone else uses.
This is likely just rebranded intellij with some rust specific plugins and some UI adjustments like pycharm, goland, etc.
All the JetBrains IDEs feel like basically the same platform with different plugins and tweaks.
They don't require CLA, since it's MIT license. So what they showcase is the benefit of copyleft.
Is this IDE going to make it impossible to install the Rust plugin in their other IDEs? Like is there anything preventing a user from continuing to use the Rust plugin and CLion after this has been released?
They can come in handy, for some people. I am certainly happy with VSCode
VSCode isn't language specific, is it? Why would they come in handy?
