Not sure if anyone has played with this IDE yet, it is written in rust and in its early days. But I have toyed with it a little bit, and I have been pretty impressed with how fast and light weight it feels compared to like VSCode... that said, the lack of some of the plugins I use in VSCode keeps me from making a full switch. But I thought I would share it.

This looks really cool. I wonder if they have any plans to support plugins written for VS Code? That would be an extremely powerful ecosystem to have access to

Might be kinda hard to support that, as many of the plugins are just leveraging JS engine that VSCode runs on... but I don't see why it couldn't be possible considering things like Tauri exists.

so, you felt that the only relevant piece of information about this ide is not any of its features, nor what it tries to do better. Nor what languages it supports.

But instead the most important feature is that this (non-security critical) piece of software is written in rust. That tells me nothing other than to actively avoid it because the community will be a rust circlejerk. You literally didn't even care to mention anything about the software itself
