When will you make support for Rust and Golang languages? Are there any plans to add these technologies? If so, when?

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum.

    Visual Studio Code already supports Rust and Golang languages.

    https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/overview

    However, if you are referring to Visual Studio IDE, you can check here to add support for Rust language in the IDE.

    https://users.rust-lang.org/t/announcing-rust-support-in-visual-studio-ide-not-vs-code/88434

    As for Golang, there is no official announcement yet. However, you can use Visual Studio Code to develop Golang applications.

    Hi @pendulum

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A! 

    Currently, the Rust language support can be available using the rust-analyzer.vs extension.

    About adding Golang language support in Visual Studio , it is still being under review. You can vote on that ticket and add your comment to track the process. 

    Thank you for helping us build a better Visual Studio! 

    Sincerely,

    Anna
