Zed

Zed is a code editor that comes with support for Rust out-of-the-box. It deserves a special mention because it itself is written in Rust. It is fairly minimalist, offering limited support for extensions (only themes, grammars and language servers can be extended). But the advantage is that it requires no setup, it understands and can work on Rust projects with no configuration.

If you just want an editor that you can use to write Rust code, and you only need features that rust-analyzer comes with out of the box, then it is a good choice. It is also open-source.

Notes

Notably, the team behind Zed runs a blog documenting their experience building a cross-platform code editor in Rust, with deep dives into challenges they have faced in doing so and how they managed to tackle them. A lot of the articles there are good reading for anyone who is interested in Rust, cross-platform development, real-world asynchronous applications and the like.
