Can't overstate how excited I am about @rust_analyzer. It's taking the compiler and converting it into something that's always-on, operating fully incrementally on each keystroke.
"Rust compilation is slow." -- as time goes on this meme will be less and less true.

As more tools hook into the same model (
rustfmt) this will improve even further. In JS I never used Prettier because it felt too slow to run on each save. Rustfmt in comparison feels fine.
But what if rustfmt could be run on *each keystroke* without noticeable latency?2 replies 0 retweets 15 likesShow this thread
Another fun one to consider is: what if rustfix was integrated into the toolchain too? When the compiler spots a bug that it knows how to fix, then the IDE could automatically apply the fix. Fine balance for sure, but I find it incredibly interesting that this can be explored!
