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.

Any sort of plugin engine with dynamic load ability and any limitations?
Shameless plug - you may want to check out cglue, which lets you mix and match rust versions, and even implement plugins in other languages like C++: https://github.com/h33p/cglue

Plugins in Rust: Wrapping Up
I honestly wouldn't say that much has changed during this year. I do see some progress on new libraries like xlang_abi, safer_ffi or cglue, but it's still too early to know, and existing ones like abi_stable move quite slowly.

Exploring System76's New Rust Based Desktop Environment
Importing Rust is the same process as you'd use to import a C library, but there's a lot of people actively invested in this area so there's likely already automated tooling of some sort. Google uses https://cxx.rs for automating C++ bindings to Rust libraries, and lately there's been experiments like cglue to automate C bindings.

CGlue 0.2.4 Is Out For Easier Trait ABI Safety
I'm proud to announce one final CGlue release for this year, the highlight being ability to use layout_checks feature on non-git builds!

CGlue 0.2 is out! Dynamically loadable traits in Rust, C and C++
I have just added pre-generated headers, they are now on the repo. Yup, certainly not the cleanest, some whitespaces need fixing, but it wasn't the highest priority as it didn't affect functionality.

What are the options of distributing a closed-source library in Rust?
Depending on how big your API surface is (and how trait heavy it is), you may want to look into [shameless_plug] automatically generating it with cglue. That's what we did for memflow. [/shameless_plug] It's goals are not much different from abi_stable (in fact, rather a small subset of it focused on traits), but does create C-compatible code.

Plugins in Rust: Diving into Dynamic Loading | nullderef.com
It seems like we are trying to solve roughly the same problems when it comes to loading plugins and keeping it all ABI safe. Might be worth checking out CGlue (full disclosure: it's my project). While I do not have async trait support, it would be a really interesting challenge to tackle. The ultimate goal for the project is to be a dead simple code generator that would even allow to write plugins in C/C++, and I currently have sweeping changes underway to get it there.

Create a Custom GitHub Action in Rust
If you haven't dipped your touch-typing fingers into Rust yet, you really owe it to yourself. Rust is a modern programming language with features that make it suitable not only for systems programming -- its original purpose, but just about any other environment, too; there are frameworks that let your build web services, web applications including user interfaces, software for embedded devices, machine learning solutions, and of course, command-line tools. Since a custom GitHub Action is essentially a command-line tool that interacts with the system through files and environment variables, Rust is perfectly suited for that as well.

Why Does Windows Use Backslash as Path Separator?
Here's an example of someone citing a disagreement between CRT and shell32:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/44650
This in addition to the Rust CVE mentioned elsewhere in the thread which was rooted in this issue:
https://blog.rust-lang.org/2024/04/09/cve-2024-24576.html
Here are some quick programs to test contrasting approaches. I don't have examples of inputs where they parse differently on hand right now, but I know they exist. This was also a problem that was frequently discussed internally when I worked at MSFT.

I hate Rust (programming language)
> instead of choosing a certain numbered version of the random library (if I remember correctly) I let cargo download the latest version which had a completely different API.
Yeah, they didn't follow the instructions and got burned. I still think that multiple things went wrong simultaneously for that experience. I wonder if more prevalent uses of `#[doc(alias = "name")]` being leveraged by https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120730 (which now that I check only accounts for methods and not functions, I should get on that!) so that when changing APIs around people at least get a slightly better experience.

Show HN: Fancy-ANSI – Small JavaScript library for converting ANSI to HTML
Recently did something similar in Rust but for generating SVGs. We've adopted it for snapshot testing of cargo and rustc's output. Don't have a good PR handy for showing Github's rendering of changes in the SVG (text, side-by-side, swiping) but https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/121877/files has newly added SVGs.
To see what is supported, see the screenshot in the docs: https://docs.rs/anstyle-svg/latest/anstyle_svg/
