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.

Stabilizing async fn in traits in 2023 | Inside Rust Blog
But maybe check out the discussion here https://github.com/async-rs/async-std/pull/631 or something (the blog post was linked on the end of it)

Anyone using io_uring?
Have a look at these: https://github.com/async-rs/async-std/tree/main/examples

Any plans for built-in support of Vec2/Vec3/Vec4 in Rust?
In fact, there are a lot of crates in Rust where in other programming languages, it would be included in the standard library. Examples are regex, random number generators, additional iterator methods, macros for other collections, num traits, loggers, HTTP libraries, error handling, async runtimes, serialization and deserialization, date and time, and many more.

18 factors powering the Rust revolution, Part 2 of 3
Two major projects (non std lib but extremely commonly used) stand out in the area of async programming: Async std and Tokio - no doubt familiar to anyone that has turned an eye towards Rust for a second too long. Async architecture in general is likely very familiar to JavaScript programmers but in Rust there are some extra considerations (like ownership of the data that is thrown into an async function). Tokio is fast becoming a heavily supported and road tested async framework, with a thread scheduling runtime "baked in" that has learned from the history of Go, Erlang, and Java thread schedulers.

What are the side-effects of using different runtimes in the same codebase?
Ah... https://github.com/tokio-rs/tokio and https://github.com/async-rs/async-std ?

Hey Rustaceans! Got an easy question? Ask here (51/2021)!
async-std: Basically a Tokio alternative with a few different design decisions.

Why asynchronous Rust doesn't work
Go's solution is for the scheduler to notice after a while when a goroutine has blocked execution and to shift goroutines waiting their turn to another thread. async-std pondered a similar approach with tasks, but it proved controversial and was never merged.

Building static Rust binaries for Linux
This indicates curl, zlib, openssl, and libnghttp2 as well as a bunch of WASM-related things are being dynamically linked into my executable. To resolve this, I looked at the build features exposed by surf and found that it selects the "curl_client" feature by default, which can be turned off and replaced with "h1-client-rustls" which uses an HTTP client backed by rustls and async-std and no dynamically linked libraries. Enabling this build feature removed all -sys dependencies from androidx-release-watcher, allowing me to build static executables of it.

Rust async is colored, and that’s not a big deal
And also, the actual PR never got merged.

Rust's async isn't f#@king colored!
Async in rust needs a runtime (aka executor) to run. You can maybe get a better description from the rust docs. As an example, Tokio attempts to provide an interface for a developer that is minimal change to the more common blocking code. So you'd end up putting #[tokio::main] above your main function to spin up the executor and most of the rest of the code is similar to a non-async version with a few sprinkles of .await, which you can see in the hello world for tokio. In contrast, async-std provides a more hands-on/low-level approach. If you are unlucky enough to have libraries that choose different stacks to work on, you'll possibly (probably?) have to handle both.

What's the canonical way of doing it in rust?
Was playing around with mio (https://github.com/tokio-rs/mio) (not that mio itself is very important here!) and was trying to implement a simple something that I've done in java before: a Reactor that you can register ReactorClients with that will get callback whenever there are events on the corresponding socket etc.

RFC: A non-blocking networking library for Rust
How does it compare to mio?
-
How does the Rust mio crate implement deregistering connections?
TcpStream gets its wake behavior by delegating to the fd wakers. The Unix wakers have a few implementations, for different platforms. On Linux and Android, epoll is used.
-
Looking for Tokio's event loop source code
The real implementation details of the I/O event queue is done in mio as u/hniksic pointed out, but that's more comparable with libuv which is certainly a huge part of the Node runtime. mio and libuv have a lot of similarities (at least they used to).

Python multi-level break and continue
My example was "twice by one developer", not "twice across all indexed repos."
A spot check shows that quite a few in your link are used specifically to ensure correct handling of Rust multi-level breaks work syntax, like https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-analyzer/blob/master/crate... , https://github.com/rust-lang/rustfmt/blob/master/tests/sourc... , https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/src/tools/rust... , https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/src/tools/rust... and likely more.
Another is a translation of BASIC code to Rust, using break as a form of goto. https://github.com/coding-horror/basic-computer-games/blob/e...
The example at https://github.com/tokio-rs/mio/blob/master/tests/tcp.rs is a nice one
// Wait for our TCP stream to connect

Crates to help with event-loop type pattern?
In my program, I have about 6 different components that follow the pattern below. Basically, the components run a thread while polling on crossbeam channels, file descriptors or sockets. For polling, I am using Mio (https://github.com/tokio-rs/mio).

Ask HN: Has any Rust developer moved to embedded device programming?
On the code side it's pretty much the same as C++. You have a module that defines an interface and per-platform implementations that are included depending on a "configuration conditional checks" #[cfg(target_os = "linux")] macro.

What is the point of async and await?
Indeed! In practice it's done through the polling operation: instead of a separate poll for op1 and op2, the program essentially tells the OS "wake me when either op1 or op2 is ready" (through the epoll syscall on Linux). The mio crate implements this, and the example on the readme is basically the same loop, but written with this polling strategy in mind.
