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.

- What is Rust's potential in game development?
-
Does anyone here work in gamedev with Rust as their primary language?
I work at Embark Studios on our creative platform. Our team is building everything in rust.
-
Rust tops StackOverflow Survey 2022 as the most loved language for the 7th year.
Tons of big companies are using it: Amazon, Discord, Cloudflare, etc. You can read about their success stories. As for game development, Veloren is a pretty complex game, and it's written entirely in Rust. Embark is betting on Rust for their game dev projects. ECS makes the dream work here, but an Actor framework would work too. You don't need DI. For example, in the web services I write using Actix, application state (stuff like clients for redis or http, db connection pool, etc.) is stored globally, and shared through the application state extractor. No dependency injection, but accessing that global state is just as convenient as if it was DI. If it's shared across workers, you put it behind a mutex/rwlock or use a concurrent data structure.
-
which concerns of the game dev industry does the committee NOT address ?
https://embark.dev/ is a major player in the rust ecosystem right now. They look like they are aiming for more of a startup feel rather than an indie one.
-
What are some Rust-using companies in Sweden?
We are at Embark! https://embark.dev/, https://embark.rs, https://embark.games.
-
Are there any remote non-crypto Rust jobs?
Is a remote-first culture, Rust-only team building our game platform from scratch on all levels and all types of code (gameplay, engine, generalists, backend, research/ml), and with a strong focus on open source.
-
What are the most important programs to learn/know to become a 3D environment artist for game development?
Tons of game studios are using Blender in production. And for environment creation 3dsMax is much more popular in games. 2 Blender examples: - Embark: https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/blender-tools - Ubisoft: https://github.com/ubisoft/mixer
Magic Enum C++
-
What C++ library do you wish existed but hasn’t been created yet?
I'm not sure this is quite what you're asking for, but this library has been super helpful to me in the past : https://github.com/Neargye/magic_enum
- Usable Magic Enums for C++
-
Fully Permissive License C++ Logger For Embedded System
Also, a shoutout to Magic Enum: https://github.com/Neargye/magic_enum
- Favorite Ways of Stringifying Enums
-
enum_name (yet another enum to/from string conversion utility >=C++11)
What does this have to offer over magic_enum?
-
quill v2.7.0 released - Asynchronous Low Latency C++ Logging Library
But it's a hack, and I prefer not to use hacks in production, because of their significant limitations:
-
Enums print numbers instead of words
You can either write a to string(view) function for your enum or use https://github.com/Neargye/magic_enum
-
Enums with methods
Why reinvent the wheel? magic_enum
-
Error: Boost bimap can't convert const CompatibleKey to Key&
Also if you want to convert enum members to string representation I suggest you just use magic_enum instead, much smaller dependency.
-
Macro to write enum and converter from and to string
Magic Enum provides that.
What are some alternatives?
