+=== VS Code or VSCodium in Flatpak
+
+Setting up `rust-analyzer` with a Flatpak version of Code is not trivial because of the Flatpak sandbox.
+While the sandbox can be disabled for some directories, `/usr/bin` will always be mounted under `/run/host/usr/bin`.
+This prevents access to the system's C compiler, a system-wide installation of Rust, or any other libraries you might want to link to.
+Some compilers and libraries can be acquired as Flatpak SDKs, such as `org.freedesktop.Sdk.Extension.rust-stable` or `org.freedesktop.Sdk.Extension.llvm15`.
+
+If you use a Flatpak SDK for Rust, there should be no extra steps necessary.
+
+If you want to use Flatpak in combination with `rustup`, the following steps might help:
+
+ - both Rust and `rustup` have to be installed using https://rustup.rs. Distro packages _will not_ work.
+ - you need to launch Code, open a terminal and run `echo $PATH`
+ - using https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.github.tchx84.Flatseal[Flatseal], you must add an environment variable called `PATH`.
+   Set its value to the output from above, appending `:~/.cargo/bin`, where `~` is the path to your home directory.
+   You must replace `~`, as it won't be expanded otherwise.
+ - while Flatseal is open, you must enable access to "All user files"
+
+A C compiler should already be available via `org.freedesktop.Sdk`.
+Any other tools or libraries you will need to acquire  from Flatpak.

 Support for Rust development in the Visual Studio IDE is enabled by the link:https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=kitamstudios.RustAnalyzer[rust-analyzer] package. Either click on the download link or install from IDE's extension manager.
 For now link:https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/[Visual Studio 2022] is required. All editions are supported viz. Community, Professional & Enterprise.
 The package aims to provide 0-friction installation and therefore comes loaded with most things required including rust-analyzer binary. If anything it needs is missing, appropriate errors / warnings will guide the user. E.g. cargo.exe needs to be in path and the package will tell you as much.
 This package is under rapid active development. So if you encounter any issues please file it at link:https://github.com/kitamstudios/rust-analyzer/[rust-analyzer.vs].
