1Enhanced navigation for axum and reqwest

RustRover 2026.2 introduces endpoint discovery and route-handler navigation for axum-based projects. URL resolution and client call generation are now easier with route references and inlay hints that make endpoint relationships visible at a glance.

2Ferrocene toolchain support

Ferrocene users can now benefit from RustRover's code completion, analysis and inspection features. The IDE supports criticalup-managed Ferrocene toolchains and provides setup guidance to simplify configuration.

3Revolution in macro development

The new interactive declarative macro tester lets you see how your macro inputs expand directly in the IDE. Understanding and fixing matching errors during macro development becomes significantly easier with real-time input-output visualization.

4Productivity enhancements

Run Criterion benchmarks from the IDE, enjoy smarter import cleanup, and leverage local variable completion in struct literals. With .env file support, your development workflow becomes more streamlined and efficient.

5Improved split mode experience

Remote developers get a smoother editing experience in split mode with optimized performance for typing and code changes. The improvements bring the feel closer to working in a standard local IDE environment.

6AI-powered development

Agent skills manager enables AI assistants to automatically learn project context. Integrate third-party AI providers and use GitHub Copilot support. Code completion suggestions are now smarter and more context-aware than ever.
