The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

Zoom can now (as of version 5.11.0) share screen on Wayland
ASHPD Demo is a great app that demonstrates what kinds of things that can be handled by the Freedesktop.org Portals system. It's available as a Flatpak on Flathub.

ASHPD 0.2 release, a XDG DBus portals wrapper in Rust
Detailed release notes can be found at https://github.com/bilelmoussaoui/ashpd/releases/tag/0.2.0

zbus 2.0 (Super easy! Barely an inconvenience) is out!
For reference, the client code can be found at https://github.com/bilelmoussaoui/ashpd & the server one at https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Rust/search-provider. When we ported the later from dbus-rs lately, we noticed it is way faster (with a debug build!) then a similar code with dbus-rs

Rust DBus service with state managed by async code advice?
From what I gather, zbus seems to be by far the best at the moment, it is what it is used by https://github.com/bilelmoussaoui/ashpd for example.

Compiler Optimization Learning Suggestions
Secondly, I have learned about LLVM, and I have learned about the Inkwell library on Rust (It's a New Kind of Wrapper for Exposing LLVM (Safely)). Has anyone used this library before? Is this a good practice? Is it suitable for my compiler? Can I write some optimization passes of my own using this library?

Finding LLVM location for use with the inkwell Rust crate
I am trying to use the inkwell Rust crate for working with LLVM. In Cargo.toml, I have specified the LLVM version using features = ["llvm15-0"]

How Rust transforms into Machine Code.
inkwell is a great llvm binding for rust and it has an implementation of kaleidoscope

Need help improving API for crate relying on Inkwell (Self-referential struct alternative)
I'm working on a compiler that uses the LLVM wrapper Inkwell for compilation. In order to compile something in inkwell, unless I'm missing something (which I very well might be), you need two structs:

How do I instrument LLVM IR for a Rust program?
Haha small world. I think we go to the same university and I took the same or similar course a few years ago. If somebody hasn't done the work for you, you may have to do some instrumentation yourself depending on what you want to track IMO https://github.com/TheDan64/inkwell is the best LLVM wrapper for Rustland (Python's llvmlite is a bit easier to use though)

How good is LLVM in other languages other than C++? (In my case I'm interested in using Rust)
I'm currently using the Inkwell bindings for Rust, which I've found actually pretty nice. In terms of generating LLVM IR, the C bindings (which is what Inkwell uses internally) can do anything you want them to (definitely not limited to trivial languages as someone else here said.) I'm even using the LLVM garbage collection infrastructure, with no problems (well, no problems in generating it; the LLVM GC infrastructure works pretty well but is sparsely documented, so actually writing a GC is fairly difficult, but it's doable). The C bindings are actually more stable than the C++ bindings (!), although not quite as stable as the textual IR format; but without the bindings you would have to write code to generate the IR yourself, the compiler would be slower as it must be emitted as text and then reparsed in a different process, and you would have less control over optimization.

Are there any repos of tutorials on writing a compiler in Rust?

LLVM Infrastructure and Rust
As we reviewed in this article LLVM IR has many use-cases and allows us to analyze and optimize source code through its passes. Knowing IR language itself will help us to write our passes and build projects around it for debugging, testing, optimizing. Currently, LLVM IR doesn't have Rust API. It's mainly used through the C++ library. However, some user-created repos are available on crates.io. There is a Rust binding to LLVM's C API - llvm-sys and two other, more Rusty APIs that are using LLVM: inkwell and llvm-ir. And finally, if you want to learn how to write a LLVM pass you should start here.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing ashpd and inkwell you can also consider the following projects:
dbus-rs - D-Bus binding for the Rust language
llvm-sys.rs
libportal - libportal - Flatpak portal library
rust-langdev - Language development libraries for Rust
rusqlite - Ergonomic bindings to SQLite for Rust
llvm-ir - LLVM IR in natural Rust data structures
handlr - A better xdg-utils
langs-in-rust - A list of programming languages implemented in Rust, for inspiration.
wgpu-rs - Rust bindings to wgpu native library
starlark-rust - A Rust implementation of the Starlark language
flatpak-external-data-checker - A tool for checking if the external data used in Flatpak manifests is still up to date
not-yet-awesome-rust - A curated list of Rust code and resources that do NOT exist yet, but would be beneficial to the Rust community.
