RustRover 2024.1 Help

Create a new Cargo project

RustRover fully supports Cargo-based Rust projects. The IDE provides several default templates for new projects and takes project-level information from Cargo.toml files to load the existing ones.

Create a new Cargo project

  1. Launch RustRover.

    Do one of the following:

    • Click New Project on the Welcome screen.

    • Select File | New | Project from the main menu.

    • Click the Project widget in the main window header and select New Project.

      Create a new project using the Project widget
  2. In the left-hand pane, make sure Rust is selected.

  3. Specify the project location and name.

  4. Specify the location of the Rust toolchain and standard library.

    If the toolchain and standard library are installed, RustRover will detect them automatically. Otherwise, you will be suggested to download Rustup.

    Install Rustup from the New Project wizard
  5. Select the desired project template and click Create.
