      Discovered this while watching Shane Mattner’s ESP32-C3 embedded Rust tutorials: https://youtu.be/vUSHaogHs1s

      Possibly love at first sight. I just did sudo apt install neovim and then followed the install instructions (https://docs.astronvim.com/#-installation) and finally enabled the community Rust pack (https://docs.astronvim.com/#-astrocommunity) and now I have a very feature-rich Rust coding environment

        kickstart.nvim co-maintainer here.

        My initial reaction was “Oh god another distro” but I have to admit they’ve built some interesting looking affordances for LSP and similar installation and maintenance.

        I’ve been feeling lately that while it’s fine to start with one of these canned “distributions” that if you’re a software developer or adjacent, taking the time to learn Neovim/Lua well enough to roll your own configuration is a worthy exploration to undertake.
