Today we're releasing [Rust 1.5 stable][install]. This post gives the
8+
highlights, and you can find the full details in the
9+
[release notes][notes].

### What's in 1.5 stable
15+
16+
The biggest news with Rust 1.5 is the introduction of `cargo install`,
17+
a new subcommand that installs Cargo application packages on the local
18+
system. This tool offers a painless way to distribute Rust applications.
19+
20+
The community is already taking advantage of `cargo install` to
21+
install applications like
22+
[rustfmt](https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/rustfmt), the
23+
work-in-progress code formatting tool for Rust. Moreover, `cargo install`
24+
can also be used to install new subcommands for Cargo itself. Many of
25+
these are collected in the
26+
[Cargo extras](https://github.com/kbknapp/cargo-extras) package:
27+
28+
* `cargo check`: statically check a project, but don't build a binary.
29+
* `cargo edit`: add or remove dependencies for a project through the command line.
30+
* `cargo graph`: build dependency graphs for a project using GraphViz.
31+
* `cargo watch`: automatically re-run a Cargo command when the project changes.
32+
33+
In addition to these tooling changes, Rust 1.5 sees a large number of
34+
library API stabilizations, especially around the interaction of paths
35+
and the file system.
36+
37+
Finally, there were a few improvements to compile times, and crate
38+
metadata shrunk
39+
[by about 20%](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/28521).
