Cargo comes with quite a lot of nifty things pre-packaged, like fmt, clippy and so on. But there are a lot of addons out there, and it is a bit hard to discover these, so I thought it would be interesting to hear what everybody is using. The things I have installed is:

  • cargo-outdated - Find outdated dependencies
  • cargo-udeps - Find unused dependencies
  • cargo-flamegraph - Performance analysis
  • cargo-about - I use it to list licenses

Of these, it is cargo-outdated I use frequently. So, what is your cargo addon you cannot live without.

    I’d like to add:

    • cargo-feature
    • cargo-watch
    • cargo-expand
    • cargo-show-asm

      cargo-feature

      cargo add can add and show features. The only thing its missing is removing of features.

      cargo-feature seems like a nice thing to have… will definitely try that.
