Neovim + Rust setup: which guide to follow?
⚓ Rust 📅 2025-09-21 👤 surdeus 👁️ 7I'm running Arch Linux.
I've tried helix and got it running with rust quite easily, but I've found out that there's currently no easy way (aside from a hack that involves compiling a program from source) to get the program to open up with the cursor at its last position. I need this feature, so it's a non-starter for me. As far as I could tell, this is a bug that they still haven't solved.
I got vim working only to find that neovim is supposedly newer and better, so I'd like to get neovim running with rust. There are so many tutorials out there with different routes to take that's it's overwhelming to decide which is best for me.
Currently I'm just working on a small side-scrolling game (which was made by AI and I've been adding onto it, learning as I go).
So I'm looking not just for what to install but a guide that will show me exactly how to install everything and get the configs working.
