The project leadership certifies that the APIs in this release are "Eclipse Quality".
Corrosion uses Rust Language Server with LSP4E and Rust TextMate grammar with TM4E to provide a rich editor for Rust files; and uses CDT to provide debugger for Rust programs in the Eclipse IDE.
It integrates well with the Eclipse IDE, does not overlap with any other project (on the contrary, it adds only a small bit of configuration over other projects that provide most of the solutions).
Corrosion is the main piece of the "Eclipse IDE for Rust developers" EPP package.
It is not extensible (no extension points, all packages marked as internal) as there is no identified need for extensibility identified so far.
For these reasons, Corrosion is a project that doesn't require much maintenance ot remain usable and profitable.
