 The main interface to rust-analyzer is the

-install lsp server, use `cargo xtask install --server`, which is a shorthand for `cargo
-install --package ra_lsp_server`. The binary is named `ra_lsp_server`, you
-should be able to use it with any LSP-compatible editor. We use custom
-extensions to LSP, so special client-side support is required to take full
-advantage of rust-analyzer. This repository contains support code for VS Code
