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.

Müsli - An experimental binary serialization framework with more choice
Love seeing the work on modes! There's definitely a use for this in cryptography, where you might want to serialize things containing elliptic curve points, which can be serialized in both "compressed" form and "uncompressed" form. We make extensive use of this in our serialization framework in arkworks: https://github.com/arkworks-rs/algebra/tree/master/serialize

What application will make Rust its prime ?
Rust takes the cake in the blockchain space: Substrate, Cosmos (CosmWasm), and Solana. All of the zero knowledge cryptography libraries used for layer 2 solutions are written in Rust, compiling to Wasm (see arkworks, Risc0). Ethereum's next version of smart contracts will even use a restricted subset of Wasm ("Ewasm") instead of EVM.

Example of how of `disallowed_method` Clippy lint in Rust 1.54 can be quite handy
Is ark a prefix Embark is using for all their Rust crates, or is it a one-off name for your future crate? If so, it might collide with our naming convention in the arkworks ecosystem: arkworks.rs

Best way to enforce correctness of modular arithmetic?
You can take a look at our approach in the arkworks library: https://github.com/arkworks-rs/algebra/blob/920070c60d481a29fb3c262ef9579f34cbb053a6/ff/src/fields/macros.rs#L103

More than you've ever wanted to know about errors in Rust
I couldn't find it in the API guidelines either. From what I understand, the idea is that any trait bounds, which includes generic type parameter bounds and lifetime bound on a type (struct or enum) would be repeated back in the impl block
there is a nice discussion on this issue here: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/1689

New clippy lint: detecting `&mut` which could be `&` in function arguments
You should not blindly follow clippy lints. They are sometimes wrong. Another example https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/9782 .
- Let else will finally be formatted by rustfmt soon

My deduplication solution written in Rust beats everything else: casync, borg...
I often write () = f() to assert that f() is unit. Unfortunately clippy warns on such code ( https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/9048 ). There are very recent pull requests for this bug, so hopefully this bug will be fixed very soon. But meanwhile I invented this workaround: [()] = [f()] :)

Any open source projects willing to take in juniors?
Apart from running clippy on many projects being essential, clippy is also an exceptionally welcoming project, no matter your prior knowledge.

Any new Opensource projects in (rust) looking for contributors. I want to start my journey as an OSS contributor.
clippy is a great place to get started :) though it isn't exactly new.
-
I want to contribute in a big project
clippy is also pretty compiler-adjacent and unlike rust-analyzer uses rustc's internal APIs. Don't let the size of the code base scare you off! It's actually feasible for a newcomer to contribute even such a substantial change as a new lint, and we have issues labeled as "good first issue" that come with mentorship, so you don't need to go it alone.

rustc-plugin: A framework for writing plugins that integrate with the Rust compiler
Yes, you could use it to write a lint. Although you might find it easier to just fork Clippy and add your own lints to their existing framework.

Rust Tips and Tricks #PartOne
They are two of my favorite Rust tools. If you haven’t tried them yet, I highly recommend giving them a try. Clippy can detect various lints in your code and guide you towards writing more idiomatic code. To install Clippy, simply run rustup component add clippy, and to run it within your workspace, execute cargo clippy. For more details, visit Clippy’s GitHub repository.
