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.

Going beyond build.rs: introducing cargo-px
If you want to automate the creation of certain code that will be nested under the src directory, and committed into source control, there are a variety of ways to do that. One option is to create a sub-crate in your project that does the code-gen and you can run it as needed. The ash project is an example of this.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (16/2023)!
There is also [Vulkano](https://github.com/vulkano-rs/vulkano). It has a safe high level api and lower level layers, all the way down to [ash](https://github.com/ash-rs/ash) which is more or less raw vulkan. It's more explicit and verbose than [wgpu](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu) though, so maybe try wgpu first and see how you like it.

A new picture of my ray tracing voxel engine (Vulkan/RTX/Rust)
Yes. I use Ash bindings for Vulkan and raw GLSL for shaders. I tried to use spirv-std for shaders—it was really great to have the benefits of Rust (structs, enums, strict type assertions, etc.)—until I needed to use buffer references. Unfortunaly, it is not yet implemented.

go-vk - A new Go language binding for Vulkan
This is great, of all the vulkan go bindings I have been waiting for one that uses vk.xml to generate the bindings, because it's the only viable way to keep the bindings up-to-date. (fyi the popular [ash-rs](https://github.com/ash-rs/ash) is created the same-way).

undefined symbol: wlEglCreateSurfaceExport
Hi, I am having an issue on pop-os wayland where when I run a vulkan application I get an error symbol lookup error: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnvidia-vulkan-producer.so: undefined symbol: wlEglCreateSurfaceExport I have tested this with https://github.com/ash-rs/ash running the triangle example.

State of GPGPU in 2022
Nice and simple. Its quite portable too. But simplicity and ease of use come with some limitations. Ash is much more complex but can extract every bit of power from your card if needed. Wgpu-rs github comes with many examples and you can find a really nice tutorial here

How to render text with rust?
Glium and ash provide low level access to different common graphics api's. I'm sure there's a good directx-11/12 bindings as well but I'm unfamiliar with what people use.

I don't understand how dependencies work
I am trying to follow to this tutorial on glium and I can't even get a window to show up because of what I assume to be a lack of comprehension on my end about how dependencies work.

Questions about Glium framework
The book is a great place to look at https://github.com/glium/glium/tree/master/book And glium itself is a bit outdated might be good to look at alternatives like glow

[Media] Visualizing scientific data in rust
Hi rustaceans! I glued this prototype together with vtkio and glium. There are more features that are unsupported than supported at this point, but the code is here if you want to check it out: https://github.com/JeffIrwin/skillet

[GLIUM] - how to pass structs as uniforms to shaders
https://github.com/glium/glium/issues/941 is the relevant Glium bug/feature request. Long story short, structs as uniforms aren't supported by Glium's current design, it looks like.

How to abstract OpenGL for future use?
I can recommend https://github.com/glium/glium as a good, safe abstraction. There was a time when I wanted to learn shaders and write complex pipelines with several stages, this library allowed me to learn about the important objects and their responsibilities without having to program the very verbose chunks of code to initialize. I learned the following:

Where to find resources to learn OpenGL with Rust ?
Glium is a Rust-y OpenGL wrapper, and its repository contains a discussion that should give you an idea whether this is what you want to use, as well as some tutorial.

Workaround for counter that goes out of scope
With a gluim window open, I want to count the number of user clicks and retain the number after the window is closed. In order to keep the program running after the window is closed, I had to change event_loop.run to event_loop.run_return and I think that means all variables will be moved into the closure and my counter goes out of scope.
