From asking around (totally unscientific, but I've been asking this question for a while now), it seems like most folks develop for stable but use nightly for incremental compilation, RLS, and/or clippy. The first two are on the path to stable in the next few releases, and the last one is starting to go in that direction too, but will take longer.

Yes, this is exactly how we do it: Our build systems all run stable, but developers use nightly for RLS and clippy.

We did have one developer who was excited about using Rocket (which he said was much better than the other Rust web frameworks he had tried), but we decided that the grief of building production code on unstable wasn't worth it.

(We're also holding off on directly using futures in any major way until the developer ergonomics and especially error messages get better.)

clippy for me, yes.
