I think I'm going to start learning Rust. Can anyone suggest a good IDE to use?

      I have to admit that while I'm old enough to remember VIM from days of yore, I never found the love that everyone had/has for it. Is it really as good as modern IDE's?

        Yes. Though neovim has stolen the limelight really. YCM or ALE with vim, ctrl+p plugins, nerdtree, lightline and you basically have an IDE

        If you're going the vim route I'd go with NeoVim. The lua support for plugins has resulted in some really great IDE-like plugins. That being said, I still prefer VScode with vim mode.

        There's actually a cool plugin for VSCode that lets you bridge NeoVim into it if you want the best of both worlds

        I tried: things like string subs didn't work, no visual block mode, macros non-existant

        Real Vim for me!
