Getting Started
Installing Rust on Arch is a little weird because it doesn't use the officially supported method.
sudo pacman -S rustup
rustup toolchain install stable
rustup default stable
Vim integration
Install the official vim plugin with:
Plug 'rust-lang/rust.vim'
Then install the Rust CoC extension with:
:CocInstall coc-rls
Hello, Rust!
Now that Rust is installed and configured we can actually make something.
cargo new hello-rust
This creates a new folder called hello-rust
with some files to get started
with. When opening in vim for the first time it may prompt you to install RLS
.
Accept that and some more files/folders will be created, AFAIK right now it's
safe to add these to .gitignore
(usually target/
).
Next you can modify the code in src/main.rs
or simply run cargo run
to
compile and run the code.
