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.

Automerge 2.0
See also, Autosurgeon (with a 0.3.0 release today), which is a higher level API on top of Automerge for Rust:
I'm building a mobile app with a server backend, and I was looking for resources to build them in an offline-first way (since unlike on the browser, people expect to use apps offline, if they can, such as fitness or habit trackers).
I found the concept of conflict-free relational data types (CRDTS) interesting as it allows you to have fully offline experiences while also having a conflict-free syncing experience. I was looking for some good libraries and came across automerge [0] and yrs [1], but both had some rough APIs as they're primarily low-level Rust libraries that are wrapped by higher-level TypeScript APIs.
Autosurgeon wraps the low-level API of automerge to make it much more ergonomic, closer to the TypeScript experience, but in Rust of course. You can for example use `struct`s which autosurgeon will serialize and deserialize automatically, which is not present in base automerge, which focuses more on string keys and arbitrary values.
I am planning on using this together with Flutter and flutter_rust_bridge [2] in order to use this same Rust library everywhere. In this case, the server just becomes another (albeit more privileged) client.

Autosurgeon 0.3.0, use conflict-free replicated data types (CRDTs) to build offline-first apps with an easy-to-use API based on Automerge

What do you recommend for conflict-free replicated data type (CRDT) support in Rust?
Yes, the plan is to use PostgreSQL. I had a discussion with one of the devs in this ticket about the strategy for this.

Some key-value storage engines in Rust
In any case, my current plan is to use Automerge for the data handling itself (so I can easily do collaboration), but that crate doesn't handle on-disk storage. For this I need another solution, and a K/V store is well suited for this task.

Official /r/rust "Who's Hiring" thread for job-seekers and job-offerers [Rust 1.66]
15 years working in software, Rust has been my favourite language for the last 2. Recently completed a contract to prototype a distributed Tailscale-inspired VPN built on Ink and Switch's CRDT project automerge-rs.

You might not need a CRDT (Conflict-free Replicated Data Type)
Complex topic. There's a very easy-to-use CRDT library for Rust (automerge), while there isn't much support for operational transforms (although Aper is new to me, I have to check it out).

Testing CRDTs in Rust, From Theory to Practice
I've been watching automerge-rs like a hawk, because they seem to be the only CRDT implementation where you don't need a Mathematics master to understand how to use it. They've been working on a rewrite for the last two years, hopefully they'll do a new release soon.

Show HN: SyncedStore CRDT – build multiplayer collaborative apps for React / Vue
https://github.com/automerge/automerge-rs
By the way despite that particular repo (@localfirst/state) last being touched 6 months ago, Herb Caudill definitely seems still active in this space (I believe he's been working on other parts of this more recently -- e.g. ideas about authentication), and I think automerge development itself is quite active right now leading up to a 1.0 release which seems fairly imminent, for which a lot of fundamental work has been done, also coordinating with automerge-rs.

SableDb – a key/value store that uses RocksDB and Redis API (written in Rust)
a few times, seems interesting. The author's also built a lot of other cool concurrency primitives for Rust as well.

Is Something Bugging You?
- Dropbox [3] uses a similar approach but they talk about it a bit more abstractly.
Sans-IO is more documented in Python [4], but str0m [5] and quinn-proto [6] are the best examples in Rust I’m aware of. Note that sans-IO is orthogonal to deterministic test frameworks, but it composes well with them.
With the disclaimer that my opinions are mine and mine alone, and don’t reflect the company I work at —— I do work at a rust shop that has utilized these techniques on some projects.
TigerBeetle is an amazing example and I’ve looked at it before! They are really the best example of this approach outside of FoundationDB I think.

Production grade databases in Rust
There is a valid argument to be made for threads over async in a large percentage of use cases where async is considered the default. If this is what you are referring to however, I don't think they ever referred to async as completely useless: https://github.com/spacejam/sled/issues/1123.

Best local database that works on all platforms including web?
Have you looked into other pure-Rust databases as well, such as sled or GlueSQL which has an SQL interface on top of sled? I wonder how those would compare to Persy.

Are there any embedded databases that have multiple-process support?
I'm not sure what you need. Are these of any use? https://github.com/meilisearch/heed https://github.com/spacejam/sled

Are there a demand for management system of embedded storage like RocksDB? I plan to build one in Rust as the language becoming a core of many popular databases but wonder if there’s a demand. Can’t find any similar project even in other languages.
There is also Sled but as I understand it that is being reworked to use the author's new DB core Marble

GreptimeDB: a new open source database designed for large-scale time-series data storage and processing, written in rust
There are some databases like sled/FlashDB designed to be embedded to other applications even bare metal microcontrollers. But I do doubt the potential bussiness value of a pure embedded database.

Ask HN: Serverless” key value store with transactions?
https://github.com/spacejam/sled
To add transaction support, you probably need a good understanding of how the memtable works in Log Structured Merge trees:
What are some alternatives?
