rusty-tags
A command line tool that creates ctags/etags for Rust cargo projects, dependencies, and the standard library.
What is rusty-tags?
rusty-tags is a command line tool that generates ctags or etags files for Rust projects managed with cargo. It solves the problem of navigating complex Rust codebases by creating tags for the main project, all dependencies, and optionally the Rust standard library, enabling quick jump-to-definition functionality in supported editors.
Rust developers using cargo for project management who want enhanced code navigation capabilities in their preferred text editors, particularly those using Vim or Emacs.
Developers choose rusty-tags because it provides a seamless, automated way to generate comprehensive tags for entire Rust dependency trees, with built-in support for the standard library and easy configuration for popular editors.
