alt Hacker NewsI've been experimenting with Qwen3 Coder Next and Copilot for a little Rust toy project and it's been trucking along. It does require a fair bit of hand-holding (or perhaps I just don't trust it to give it larger tasks), but it works alright.

Give 3.5 or 3.6 a shot. 3.5 has smaller models that you could leverage. If you can swing it, though, 3.6 27B is quite good.
