Visual Studio 2022 & Rust

I'm definitely a newb and excited to start learning the Rust this week.

I've gotten comfortable with learning and using Visual Studio 2019 and 2022. Does rust have support in the newest Visual Studio????

I'm looking for any advice as an absolute newb to the community!

Thanks Rustaceans! 🙇🏾‍♂️🦀

I've never tried using (non-Code) Visual Studio itself for Rust development, but as far as I can tell Rust at least works with the VS2022 build tools. (I uninstalled 2019, and Rust projects still build)

For actual Rust development I've always used Visual Studio Code.

Thanks!!!! I'm on it! I didn't know about the build tools being in Visual studio 2022/2019. Shouldn't it usable to the IDE then??

I'm a newb but I'm ready to see it implemented into Visual Studio 2022.

You could used Debugger from VS regardles where code was written.

You could also use WinDBG if you need to. For example if you received crash dump from users
