About the project

A Rust language server that brings IDE functionality to writing Rust code: go-to-definition, find-all-references, refactorings, completion, formatting and diagnostics. Works with any editor supporting LSP.

Useful for
  • Set up completion and go-to-definition in Vim or Emacs for a Rust project
  • Run clippy and rustc diagnostics inside the editor while writing code
  • Use rust-analyzer libraries to analyze Rust code in a custom tool

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
