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.

Was Rust Worth It?
Instead of looking at the crates themselves, you might want to check your (or others') Rust application with https://github.com/rust-secure-code/cargo-geiger to get a sense of effective prevalence. I also dispute that the presence of unsafe somewhere in the dependency tree is an issue in itself, but that's a different discussion that many more had in other sub-threads.

Found a language in development called Vale which claims to be the safest AOT compiled language in the World (Claims to beSafer than Rust)
There's still plenty. Run cargo geiger on any of your projects and see for yourself.

Question Omnibus: Dependency Fingerprinting, Unsafe Rust, and Memory Safety
On point 2, the answer is cargo geiger, and judging how much memory safety you need for a given project.
- pliron: An extensible compiler IR framework, inspired by MLIR and written in safe Rust.

[Discussion] What crates would you like to see?
You can use cargo-geiger or cargo-crev to check for whether people you trusted (e.g. u/jonhoo ) trust this crate.
-
How do you choose what crate you will use?
The amount of unsafe code is also a factor. cargo geiger is a handy tool for measuring it.
-
Seems legit
We have cargo-geiger that does just that.

Rosenpass – formally verified post-quantum WireGuard
For that, I believe you need to use cargo-geiger[0] and audit the results.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (6/2023)!
cargo-geiger is a subcommand you can install which will check all the crates in your dependency graph for unsafe blocks and print out a report (which also shows if a crate has #![forbid(unsafe_code)] or not). You can then inspect those crates' sources to judge their use of unsafe for yourself. I don't think it has a "check" mode that simply errors if your dependency graph contains unsafe though, it's more about just collecting that information.

[CCS Proposal] Preliminary research on rewriting Monero node in Rust
wrt to memory safety, keep in mind that many rust crates use "unsafe" internally. There are tools available that can find these such as cargo-geiger. So I would suggest to avoid unsafe deps as much as possible. Since they cannot be avoided entirely, it is a good idea to keep a list of unsafe deps.

Learning Rust: A clean start
My first port of call was to google learn rust which lead me to "the book". The book is a first steps guide written by the rust community for newbies (or Rustlings as they're called) to gain a 'solid grasp of the language'.

Prodzilla: From Zero to Prod with Rust and Shuttle
Before Prodzilla, I’d read 'The Book' a couple of times, and had made my way through Rustlings, but hadn’t yet built a serious project in Rust.

Help me stop hating rust
To answer your last question;
Start with the Rust book.
https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/
Then do Rustlings until the syntax becomes muscle memory.
Then join the Discord and start doing little projects.
You won’t get up to the proficiency of other languages as quickly in Rust. It takes longer. For me it’s taking a lot longer, but I enjoy it.

Top 10 Rusty Repositories for you to start your Open Source Journey
Before diving into these repositories, familiarize yourself with Rust and its development ecosystem. The official Rust book is an excellent resource for developers at all levels. Each repository has documentation on how to contribute, covering code style, issue tracking, and pull requests.

Command Line Rust is a great book
This is my third Rust book after the official book and Rust in Action. The other two books are great, but they were too theoretical for me. I'm a slow learner and had much trouble grokking Rust's features and idiosyncrasies. When I was done with these books, I was lost and unsure of what I could do.

Nim
It's the same reason everything digital and downloadable isn't free: there's a cost to create it and there's a value to it.
For a language developer to charge for a book about that language, I think that's a completely valid way to make some money off of their work.
Even the Rust book, "The Rust Programming Language" is available freely online [0], but also as a print and ebook for sale via NoStarchPress [1].

Ask HN: How do you learn Rust in 2023?
I am looking at The Book (https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/), but hoped there was an amazing person on youtube.
Yeah, I'll build something, finally trying webassembly.
