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.

Two handy GDB breakpoint tricks
Visual Studio has a related annoying habit when navigating the call stack (the caller's scope is considered closed if the callee is syntactically its tail) so I wonder whether this workaround would be useful for it as well.
See also this comment in the Unreal Engine code about putting a nop in before as well: https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine/blob/26677ca1b3c97...
// Q: Why is there a __nop() before __debugbreak()?

Sane C++ Libraries
> you can still use it with smart pointers provided by any other library
Is the point of having a kitchen-sink library like this not that you dont have to reach for a 3rdparty library for things that you need 'all the time'?
Certainly, not everyone needs it.
...but, not everyone needs threads either. Not everyone needs an http server; and yet, if you have an application framework that provides them, when you do need them, it saves you reaching for yet-another-dependency.
Was that no the point from the beginning?
unique_ptr is a fundamental primitive for many, as you see from some other frameworks (1), and implementation is not always either a) trivial, or b) as simple as 'just use std::unique_ptr'.
This does seem like a very opinionated decision with reasonably unclear justification.

Unreal Engine 5.3
It is not publicly available. If you click on this link you get a 404 page: https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine You actually have to go and subscribe, agree to their terms, and then you get to view the source code. It happens to be free, but it is by no means "public".

I always have bad timing, was literally just about to try out v5.2
https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine/tree/5.2.0-preview-2 For anyone wondering

Depending on the order multiple movies in "Startup movies" cause game to crash.. UE5.1
Like I said before, you have the fixed code here (commit: 23937975).

How to create a moddable game?
Before you can access the repository at https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine, you must: be an Unreal Engine subscriber. have a GitHub account. have associated your GitHub account with your Unreal Engine account as described on the UE4 on GitHub page.

W.I.P on my Open-World time traveling game. Experimented with Lumen + Nanite and found a way to maximize performance!
What you need to do is follow this link and diff my file with Epic's file. You can grab settings that I have from mine and plop them into a custom one for yours. Just be mindful if you're developing in VR for what settings you bring over.

As a Unity user, watching Unreal Engine at GDC 2023 made me sad and jealous
Originally it was going to be NetworkPrediction (need to be signed into a github account with Unreal Engine access for that link to work), but since David Ratti left Epic that died and they stopped working on it. (I didn't know it was dead, that was the CMC replacement I was referring to)

This unironically happened at my work today. We'll *definitely* be fitting that one into the next sprint...
Found this while looking through UE commits

Müsli - An experimental binary serialization framework with more choice
And before you ask: This only provides partial zero-copy support in strings and byte arrays like serde. But it's not like rkyv which constructs validated references into the data.

A new major version of jql has been released
Regarding JSON, what kind of other implementation do you have in mind? I've seen e.g. `rkyv` which looks really neat (https://github.com/rkyv/rkyv/issues/85). So far `serde_json` is providing a clean surface API but maybe there's best solution?

My negative views on Rust
Thank you for your concern. I've done plenty of projects that go beyond a "Hello World" such as a GPU accelerated password cracker. I am starting soon a C++/Rust job. I already contributed to codebases I didn't write.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here! (37/2022)!
rkyv is awesome because it supports full zero-copy deserialization. You can serialize your HashMap to a file. Later you can directly use the HashMap from the file without creating and populating a new HashMap in memory (rkyv directly indexes into the raw bytes). For even faster access times you can even mmap the file.

Bizarre memory leak caused by tokio runtime
I had the same problem when trying to deserialize a big struct with rkyv: see rkyv#277.

Advice for the next dozen Rust GUIs
Any chance of working with zero-copy deserialization frameworks? like https://github.com/rkyv/rkyv or capnproto

Pijul 1.0 Beta
Hi, you seem to know a bit about Sanakirja!
It stores 4kb blobs, right? Does Pijul first parses the data (copying it to other allocations), or uses the data as is? I mean, there are some libraries like cap'n'proto[0] and rkyv[1] that can directly use the file contents as an in-memory data structure, I was wondering if Pijul did anything like that.
I mean, is this btree page [2] stored exactly like this on disk, and does Pijul exploits that to avoid further copying data?
(I guess there's a trouble with compression there: to decompress you really need to write in another buffer)
Also, is the I/O done with something that prevent userspace copies like mmap or io_uring, or does it eventually calls read() to copy the data to its own buffer?
I want to build something like Sanakirja, but with those features, so I'm wondering if there's any overlap.

Is there a library like Serde but which makes it easy to mutate serialized data stored in a [u8] or Vec<u8>?
I think https://github.com/rkyv/rkyv does this. Also capnproto like was mentioned here, and perhaps https://docs.rs/zerocopy/0.6.1/zerocopy/index.html too

rkyv 0.7: Endian-agnostic types, `no_std` validation, performance improvements, github sponsors and more!
It's been two months since the last major rkyv release, and three months since the last major feature release. After all that time, I'm proud to announce that rkyv 0.7 is finally out!

rkyv 0.5: Comparison derives, serialize bounds, and the future
After roughly two months of work, rkyv 0.5 is finally out!
