Ratings and reviews

Its a really great RUST ide! Its intuitive, fast, and overall its awesome. the only issue is with text selecting, when i try to drag the little pin, its pretty janky. And there's a text selection bar right under where the white pins are, making me have to hold and select the text in a awkward area, otherwise, the little bar won't make me drag it.

This app is really wonderful! I often have quick ideas I'd like to prototype without access to a computer, which is much nicer with a full IDE than the Rust Playground. Rust-analyzer + clippy work well! I have a few minor UX complaints, otherwise this is great: The top bar showing the project name/open files is rather large, so you can't see much code at once. The popup windows for diagnostics often cover the relevant code. Automatic indentation sometimes over-indents.

highly impressive tool! its a project that will open a new door for future Rustaceans. - the interaction with the terminal was tacky and difficult to get by in my opinion, with my keyboard constantly popping out when any small menu movement is made, i suggest a button to show keyboard when needed. - also it would be a little bit easier to see the terminal and editor simulataneously instead of the whole terminal dropdown taking over the screen.
