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.

bitcode 0.4 release - binary serialization format
I was also under the false impression that bitwise encoding was slow. When I first implemented bitcode with bitvec I got performance 20x worse than bincode. After writing my own implementation I was able to get much better performance.

An optimized replacement of the infamous std::vector<🅱️ool>
interesting; i'll have to compare this to my rust counterpart. your numbers indicate some clever implementations i'd love to read

You need to stop idolizing programming languages.
Not to mention having a lackluster std which causes you to use nonstardard not so well documented crates and a 40K LoC library to do "bit-twiddling" (the lib, https://github.com/bitvecto-rs/bitvec the blog that says "twiddle bits" https://blog.adamchalmers.com/making-a-dns-client/ and for crying out loud the blogger also used the language the author mentioned and I quote "ergonomics AND speed AND correctness")
- bit-twiddling tricks. It's the perfect example of Rust's no-compromises "ergonomics AND speed AND correctness" ideals

An Armful of CHERIs: Memory Safety in the processor. Do we still need safe languages with CHERI?
https://github.com/bitvecto-rs/bitvec/issues/135 is a very funny read about how to perform inttoptr with provenance retention
-
bitvec 1.0.0 Released
Technically #135 gives me license to yank affected crates, but since the only exploit is "Miri crashes exactly one test out of the suite" it's not really worth it to be a stickler. Call it a truce
-
What are some creative/advanced uses of macro_rules?
My friend Nika wrote a macro that packs a sequence of 1, 0, … tokens into a correctly structured bit-buffer, adaptable over any register type or bit-ordering, at compile time. It's now basically this whole file
-
Where do I document a published crate?
if you are interested in a user manual, you can use mdbook as well. for an example, my bitvec project uses mdbook (book.toml) and a github action (.github/workflows/gh-pages.yml) to compile the guide and host it as a github pages website. it's slightly more complicated, and i'd like docs.rs to follow hexdoc.pm's example of hosting both api docs and prose, but until then this is a pretty reasonable solution.

Idiomatic Way to Validate Struct Field Values
the first one
-
When and how to use traits?
i would browse the standard library, tower, nom, or my own bitvec to see layout and trait/record separation. in particular, std::io and std::net may be of use: io::Read and io::Write are pervasive examples of implementing unixy file-descriptor-like behavior in the type system

Using GenAI to improve developer experience on AWS
Working in combination with CodeWhisperer in your IDE, you can send whole code sections to Amazon Q and ask for an explanation of what the selected code does. To show how this works, we open up the file.rs file cloned from this GitHub repository. This is part of an open source project to host documentation of crates for the Rust Programming Language, which is a language we are not familiar with.

TSDocs.dev: type docs for any JavaScript library
Looks like a great initiative – I wish there was a reliable TS/JS equivalent of https://docs.rs (even considering rustdoc's deficiencies[1]).
I went through this exercise recently and so far my experience with trying to produce documentation from a somewhat convoluted TS codebase[2] has been disappointing. I would claim it's a consequence of the library's public (user-facing) API substantially differing from how the actual implementation is structured.
Typedoc produces bad results for that codebase so sphinx-js, which I wanted to use, doesn't have much to work with. I ultimately documented things by hand, for now, the way the API is meant to be used by the user.
Compare:

How did I need to know about feature rwh_05 for winit?
Rust Search Extension adds a section on docs.rs menubar which lists the features of a crate in a nice and easy to access format.

Embassy on ESP: GPIO
📝 Note: At the time of writing this post, I couldn't really locate the init function docs.rs documentation. It didn't seem easily accessible through any of the current HAL implementation documentation. Nevertheless, I reached the signature of the function through the source here.

First Rust Package - Telegram Notification Framework (Feedback Appreciated)
Rust Crates are a Game-Changer 🎮:The ease of releasing a crate with `cargo publish` and the convenience of rolling out new versions amazed me. The auto-generated docs on Docs.rs. is an amazing tool, especially with docstring formatting. Doc tests serve as a two-fold tool for documenting the code and ensuring it's up-to-date.

Grimoire: Open-Source bookmark manager with extra features
I've found I manually type out certain subsets of URLs where possible[0], maybe that's subconsciously associated with my impression that Google Search results have gotten worse and worse over the years.
[0] https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/ and https://docs.rs/ come to mind.

Released my first crate ~20 hours ago; already downloaded 12 times. Who would know about it?
docs.rs also downloads you crate automatically to generate docs and I would guess lib.rs does something similar
- Docs.rs Is Down

Managed to land a junior role need help!
There are also a few key sites you'll want to keep in your back pocket at all times: - The Standard Library Documentation has complete documentation for every std library function in Rust - crates.io is a repository for all third-party packages, and docs.rs has human-readable documentation for the overwhelming majority of them - The Rust Cookbook has some code examples for common tasks you may need to perform - Make sure you are using clippy, which is available through Rustup and can be run with cargo clippy as a replacement to cargo check, it adds additional lints for your Rust code and is very helpful for teaching many of the best practices

How do you like code documentation inline in the source code vs. as separate guides, or how would you do it?
OTOH, source-code-generated-docs normalize how code docs are, like the rust docs.rs paradigm, so it sort of forces or encourages package creators/maintainers to write docs.
What are some alternatives?
nom - Rust parser combinator framework
crates.io - The Rust package registry
rfcs - RFCs for changes to Rust
serenity - A Rust library for the Discord API.
time - The most used Rust library for date and time handling.
tui-input - TUI input library supporting multiple backends, tui-rs and ratatui
byteorder - Rust library for reading/writing numbers in big-endian and little-endian.
config-rs - ⚙️ Layered configuration system for Rust applications (with strong support for 12-factor applications).
tower - async fn(Request) -> Result<Response, Error>
bevy - A refreshingly simple data-driven game engine built in Rust
hardcaml - Hardcaml is an OCaml library for designing hardware.
awesome-bevy - A collection of Bevy assets, plugins, learning resources, and apps made by the community
