This is a list of software and programming tools for the Rust programming language, including IDEs, compilers, libraries, verification and debugging tools, numerical and scientific computing libraries, and related projects.
Compilers
- Cranelift — code generator and JIT compiler that can be used to compile Rust through Wasmtime and experimental backends[1]
- LLVM[2]
- MRustC — alternative Rust compiler written in C++, focused on bootstrapping.[3]
- rustc — official Rust compiler, written in Rust and using LLVM as a backend.[4]
Integrated development environments and editors
- CLion / IntelliJ IDEA — with the official Rust plugin maintained by JetBrains[5]
- Emacs — support via rustic mode and rust-mode[6][7]
- Kate — basic Rust support via syntax highlighting and plugins
- Neovim / Vim — Rust support through plugins like rust.vim[8] and coc-rust-analyzer[9]
- RustRover — JetBrains IDE focused on Rust development
- Visual Studio Code — Rust support via the Rust Analyzer language server[10]
- Zed
Package managers and build systems
- Bazel — build system with community support for Rust rules[11]
- Cargo — Rust package manager and build tool, included with Rust distribution.[12]
- Crates.io — official package registry for Rust libraries and applications[13]
- Rustup — toolchain installer and version manager for Rust[14][15]
Libraries and frameworks
- Actix — actor framework and high-performance web framework[16]
- Diesel — ORM and query builder for Rust[17]

- ndarray — array and linear algebra operations[30][31]
- nalgebra — general-purpose linear algebra library[32]
- Polars — DataFrame library for data analysis in Rust[33]
Verification, debugging, and analysis
- Clippy — linter for Rust, providing warnings for common mistakes and idioms.[34][35]
- Miri — interpreter for Rust's mid-level intermediate representation (MIR), used for checking undefined behavior.[36]
- Rustfmt — formatting tool for Rust code[37]
- Sanitizer — Rust integration with LLVM sanitizers for memory and thread safety[38]
Testing frameworks
- Built-in test framework — included in the Rust compiler and Cargo[39][40]
- Proptest — property-based testing framework for Rust[41][42]
- QuickCheck for Rust — port of the Haskell QuickCheck property-testing library[43]
