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.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here! (31/2022)!
Take a look into math libraries, like glam, nalgebra, and cgmath. I've only used these through game engines, though, so I can't offer per-basis reviews/advice.

Any plans for built-in support of Vec2/Vec3/Vec4 in Rust?
But I am writing a Vulkan-based game engine and I use https://crates.io/crates/cgmath extensively. It has vector classes, all the math functions I need, and it even supports a version of swizzling if you activate the feature. Maybe this crate can do what you need?

I want to change my point of view by key input in glium.
There's also a good crate which you can use to quickly create the required matrices called cgmath: https://crates.io/crates/cgmath

Rendering large 3D tilemaps with a single draw call at 3000 FPS
One great thing about Rust is that the library ecosystem is surprisingly mature, especially considering how young the language is (1.0 was released in 2015). C# also has good libraries, but from my experience it's kinda fiddly to use most open source libraries with Unity, at least without modifications. Rust's ecosystem has some excellent libraries that help with game development, such as noise for procedural generation and cgmath for linear algebra.

Xkcd 2916: Machine
Ok, so this uses https://rapier.rs/ which is very cool
Rapier, alongside https://nalgebra.org/ (which it uses underneath) has seriously good documentation and some advanced features like cross-platform determinism (something made hard by the way floating point differs between platforms)

Bevy XPBD: A physics engine for the Bevy game engine
What are the pros and cons compared to something like Rapier? When should one use Bevy XPBD instead of Rapier, or vice versa?

What's everyone working on this week (22/2023)?
Still using Rust in a browser-based multiplayer party game I'm working on! I'm using Actix Web for the backend and rapier2d to handle my game's physics. I'm looking to make some more connections amongst the developer / gaming community through my game down the line.

Constructing a piston/muscle/gas strut in bevy_rapier3d?
I have noticed that Rapier 0.17 contains a RopeJoint struct, which constrains maximum distance between two dynamic bodies. It doesn't seem to have found its way into bevy_rapier3d yet so I haven't understood whether it supports (half of) my use case, and looking at the code (https://github.com/dimforge/rapier/blob/master/src/dynamics/joint/rope_joint.rs) I really cannot see how it is actually implemented and how I could extend it to also set a minimum distance, but this may be a place to start.

Next part of my platformer in bevy series
I was also frustrated with the kcc, so I opened a PR that fixes most of my issues: https://github.com/dimforge/rapier/pull/446

What libraries does Idris need to increase adoption?
Likewise, see the js bindings of Rapier.

Good resources for structuring a 2d physics engine in Rust?
Maybe check out how Rapier does it. Rapier is likely the most advanced physics engine in Rust. (Though Embark Studios is doing some crazy stuff with ML physics.)
