About this playground

The Rust playground gives you a Linux machine with the Rust toolchain (cargo, rustfmt and clippy), and VS Code in your browser with rust-analyzer. Create a crate, run clippy, write tests and build a release. You have root access, and the machine is deleted when the session ends.

Frequently asked questions

Is there an online Rust playground with a real terminal?

Yes. With a free account you open a machine with the Rust toolchain and VS Code in your browser, so you work on a whole crate, not one file. Sessions last 60 minutes.

Are clippy and rustfmt included?

Yes, along with rust-analyzer in VS Code for completion and errors as you type.

Do I need rustup on my computer?

No. The toolchain runs on the machine you open; all you need is a browser.

Is my code saved?

No. The machine is deleted when the session ends. Push your work to a Git repository before the time runs out.
