Pants

I'm curious about rust support for pants2, are there any plans an adding/expanding it? I saw <https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/18842> is there an info page about the current state of rust in pants?

I don't know if there is an official update on it on the website, even though we have a page for it - but Tom's got your back.

I haven't yet had a chance to play around with it - but I have a small, fun, project where I'll be testing it out shortly - so I'm super pumped :slightly_smiling_face:

As SJ said, I'm building a plugin for it outside the main repo to keep it separate from the Pants release process.

Does the basic building/packaging/linting, testing albeit a bit inefficiently due to Cargo being quite greedy when rebuilding. Not yet on PyPi so you'd have to depend on it from GH (per second repo), but my aim is to put it on PyPi ~soon. Happy to take PRs and feature requests :-)

And I'm sure Tom's also happy to have other people play around with it in their repos :slightly_smiling_face:
