Hi! Can I build Rust with pants?
a
not yet really, we have a bunch of shell scripts to bootstrap our current rust engine to use in our python code. i am (or was) working on exactly this: https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/6891
it is blocked a little bit on https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/7171 to avoid redownloading cargo every single time, but i'm planning to work on both of those next week
#engine is our channel to discuss rust development in pants, typically on the pants rust engine but more than that
short answer no but it's not far off and the only blocker is available time

Cool, I’m looking forward to this!

what is your use case?

Currently this is just for private use
