Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Building the DirectX shader compiler better than Microsoft?
> We may support DXBC generation in Clang in the future (we mentioned that in the original proposal to LLVM). That work is unlikely to begin for a few years as our focus will be on supporting DXIL and SPIR-V generation first.
I appreciate this quote[0] from the microsoft camp. Setting clear expectations that something will not be done is a nice bit of fresh air.

Vcc โ The Vulkan Clang Compiler
There's no need for transpilers these days, you can just compile HLSL to SPIR-V bytecode with dxc.

Shader Compilation
Use DXC and only HLSL for your main shader editing.

Apple's Game Porting Toolkit seems to have a D3DMetal.framework with full implementations of DirectX 12 to 9 on Metal
You can see libdxilconv in there, DXIL is the DirectX Intermediate Representation, documented in the open source shader compiler from Microsoft.

Proper way to access a read-only texture that has no sampler from an hlsl compute shader?
BTW, this problem can be reproduced as described below: - clone https://github.com/SaschaWillems/Vulkan.git - build the project and run it with arguments : -v - s hlsl to enable the validation layer and to use hlsl code - run ComputeShader project. The following validation error "Type mismatch on descriptor slot ..." will be shown in the console. - to fix it, as suggested above, you can replace the 3rd line of emboss.comp, sharpen.comp, and edgedetect.comp from: Texture2D inputImage : register(t0); //Creates validation errors to RWTexture2D inputImage : register(u0); //no validation errors (you'll then need to recompile the shaders to spv with a proper hlsl compiler such as Microsoft dxc)

Start project on Metal, port to DX11?
EDIT: There is also naga but it does not take HLSL as input: https://github.com/gfx-rs/naga but you can use DirectXShaderCompiler to compile to SpirV, then use naga to compile to Metal.

Using WebGPU as a graphics API for native C++ applications
๐คจ For a "refusal to acknowledge it", they do appear to have a rather sizeable document mapping between HLSL and SPIR-V? https://github.com/microsoft/DirectXShaderCompiler/blob/main/docs/SPIR-V.rst

-
Is SPIRV-Cross a valid option to target Metal from HSSL?
I am starting work on a compute-driven rendering engine, and it seems that the best way to go around it will be to write code in HSSL, and then use DirectXShaderCompiler to generate SPIR-V, and SPIRV-Cross to then generate MSL. And while DXSC's repo has a page on incompatibilities, no such resource seems to exist for SPIRV-Cross targeting Metal.

3 years of fulltime Rust game development, and why we're leaving Rust behind
I'd say Rust does have that big ticket ecosystem push. Microsoft has been embracing Rust lately, with things like official Windows bindings [1].
The bigger problem is just inertia: large game engines are enormous.

Ask HN: What is the best way to build a desktop app in Windows in 2023?
It's a shame that, unlike with Win32, using WinUI places pretty harsh restrictions on which programming languages and environments you can use. Only C# and C++ are supported, the latter only with Microsoft compilers. For everything else, including Rust[1], Python and MinGW C/C++, there is no answer for OP's question, and the effect of this on the visual consistency of the Windows desktop is obvious - there is none. Every third-party app uses a different toolkit with a different look and feel, because the library providing the standard look and feel simply isn't available to the majority of developers.

What in Rust is equivalent to C++ DLLs (shared libraries), or what do I need to do to support extensions in my app?
On Windows you'd need to call the LoadLibraryEx method. You'd also need a crate to call Win32 functions, I suggest windows-rs.

Microsoft is to enable Rust use for Windows 11 kernel
windows-rs, Microsoft's crate wrapping the Windows API, already includes the WDK, the special sdk for creating kernel code.
-
Which GUI toolkit for Rust today.. few questions...
On windows, I'll probably use https://github.com/gabdube/native-windows-gui or https://github.com/microsoft/windows-rs both of them seem pretty solid.
-
Which crate for listing / moving Windows 11 windows ?
*nod* It's an official Microsoft thing generated from official Microsoft API definition files. (The repo is at microsoft/windows-rs on GitHub.)

Kernel Headers for Windows could soon make it into windows-rs
Microsoft offers official "bindings" to Win32 APIs through win32metadata. However, until recently, it did not include metadata for kernel-level functions or WDK. In early 2021, an issue was raised through windows-rs regarding this limitation, but progress was slow until now. Microsoft has finally released official metadata for WDK, which can be found on the wdkmetadata repository. The latest comment on the issue thread can be found here:

Is the Rust ecosystem capable of making a cross-platform mobile game with p2p Bluetooth yet?
Is something wrong with https://github.com/deviceplug/btleplug or you haven't found it? You could also use bindings to platform libraries like https://github.com/microsoft/windows-rs and https://github.com/rust-mobile/ndk if btleplug doesn't have something fundamental to you.
