Iām thinking of switching to #HelixEditor, how is the experience for other Rust developers out there? Is there something missing?

@edfloreshz Just fyi I am using Rust Rover from Jetbrains (free for open source development) and it works very well (even on Linux). But I am also used to Jetbrains IDEs in general, using it professionally for about 10 years already.

@dieTasse Yup. been there done that, Zed is my preferred editor nowadays simply because of how fast it is, but it can sometimes be very unstable, so, I was looking for a terminal editor in the meantime, Helix looked nice.

@edfloreshz Aha got it š What do you refer to when you talk about how fast it is? Or do you have weaker pc so every resource counts?

@dieTasse I'm not resource constrained, but getting a faster experience is something I desire, having to wait 10 to 20 seconds while the editor warms up is not something I enjoy, specially when I'm making minor changes.
That's why Zed is interesting to me, it let's me get in and get out in the time that it takes VSCode to warm up, Helix is surely faster.

@edfloreshz
Aha, I have to check tomorrow. I never noticed how fast the start is for Rust Rover. At work, we have quite big java project and IntelliJ takes a little bit to be ready (I notice that), but we also use cloud machines that are not well optimized.
