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.

Cryptoflow: Building a secure and scalable system with Axum and SvelteKit - Part 0
I used cargo-watch here so that every time my source changes, the server will automatically restart and re-serve the updated code.

Use just to manage Rust project commands

Functional Programming 1
Rust: RPDS https://docs.rs/rpds/latest/rpds/ and Im https://docs.rs/im/latest/im/
Rust isn’t great for letting you do FP things like other languages, but it does have the best type system imho which makes it the leading functional programming language right now imho. If you’re not using too many specialized python packages then I recommend using Rust instead, even for toy demos, as you can be more confident your code works without needing to run it and wait for a crash like you would in debugging python, and the tests also run faster in rust due to the incremental compilation. Use cargo-watch and you can retest your code every time you save your work.
https://github.com/watchexec/cargo-watch
I usually write a make command to cargo watch and rerun each test file : code file pair independently so then you won’t rerun your tests in other modules when you change the one you work on (faster but might miss stuff if you change API contracts which touch other parts of your codebase)

Are there any continuous testing tools with real-time line-by-line IDE feedback for Rust?
you can use cargo-watch to real time run tests on save in your attached vs code console session which is about as close to what you're asking as I think exists for rust
-
Why does the "crate" nomenclature include both "binary" and "library"?
Note that cargo, by virtue of being a package manager for a programming language, is primarily going to be dealing with library packages. That's not because it can't manage executables (see cargo-watch for a particularly useful example), it's just that it's less common.

cargo-watch hangs on reload
Unless there's a new issue, I think this is what was here: https://github.com/watchexec/cargo-watch/issues/249
- Cargo Watch 8.3.0
- Cargo Watch v8.2.0

Creating Rest APIs with Rust
A feature that I look for whenever possible in my development environment is Hot Reload, with it, every time a file is changed and saved the application restarts, so the cycle of writing-evaluating-refactoring code becomes extremely fast, for Rust, we have cargo watch, I suggest taking a look at the documentation for more details.

Mozilla sccache: cache with cloud storage
Worth noting that the first commit in sccache git repository was in 2014 (https://github.com/mozilla/sccache/commit/115016e0a83b290dc2...). So I suppose that what "happened" happened waay back.
- Welcome to Apache OpenDAL

Target file are very huge and running out of storage on mac.
If you have lots of shared dependencies, maybe try sccache?

S3 Express Is All You Need
I'm going to set up sccache [0] to use it tomorrow. We use MSVC, so EFS is off the cards.

Serde has started shipping precompiled binaries with no way to opt out
I think the primary benefit of pre-built procmacros will be for build servers which don't use a persistent cache (like sccache), since they have to compile all dependencies every time. But IMO improved support for persistent caches would be a better investment compared to adding support for pre-built procmacros.

Distcc: A fast, free distributed C/C++ compiler
https://github.com/mozilla/sccache is another option which addresses the use cases of both icecream and ccache (and also supports Rust, and cloud storage of artifacts, if those are useful for you)

How to fix Rust Coding LARGE files????
That being said a compilation cache, eg the de-facto standard for Rust: sccache (https://github.com/mozilla/sccache) will help to compile and store some of the build artifacts centralized - still for each crate version + build profile (RUSTFLAGS) combination.

On the verge of giving up learning Haskell because of the terrible tooling.
That's definitely not my experience. Never had any issue running Rust on Windows. You just download and run rustup-init.exe, then updating is simply a matter of rustup update. Documentation generation is built in (cargo doc) and just a case of annotating code with triple-/ markdown comments and then running that command. sccache works fine for me (just need to set RUSTC_WRAPPER=/path/to/sccache). And the error messages from rustc are by far the best of any compiler I've used. Not sure how they're unhelpful, they tend to explain step-by-step what the problem is and how to fix it.
What are some alternatives?
