How much support does Microsoft give to the Rust Foundation (financial and otherwise)?
Does Visual Studio (not VS Code) support Rust programming?
Are there plans for an official Rust SDK for Azure? https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-rust
Why does Visual Studio need to support Rust when VS Code has amazing Rust support?
It's been ages since I last looked but IIRC Visual Studio is still the go-to and only real option for oldschool win32 programming (i.e. native windows, COM, etc.). I'm sure there are plugins and machinations to make VS Code competent at win32 too but for some companies and shops they're sticking to Visual Studio.
It looks like this official MS Rust library adds a lot of Win32 support: https://github.com/microsoft/windows-rs
It should work well with VS Code.
