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.

We Replaced Firecracker with QEMU
There is no mention of cloud-hypervisor[1] (also in the rust-vmm ecosystem) in the article. It has the memory reclamation feature they require. It also support VFIO and virtiofs.

Hypervisor Development in Rust
https://github.com/tandasat/Hypervisor-101-in-Rust is there to help
https://github.com/cloud-hypervisor/cloud-hypervisor isn't educational necessarily but is one of the most technically progressive fastest developing highest funded vm projects ever, and there are oodles of tech talks on it. I am not qualified to make any specific recommendations, but there's tons of stuff here.

Firecracker internals: deep dive inside the technology powering AWS Lambda(2021)
> The goal of the Cloud Hypervisor project differs from the aforementioned projects in that it aims to be a general purpose VMM for Cloud Workloads and not limited to container/serverless or client workloads.
Firecracker is such a great piece of technology. I'm amazed that AWS actually open-sourced it. All kudos to them. We're using Firecracker at our company to allow API companies build interactive demos like this one we built for Prisma [1].

Cloud Hypervisor vs Hypervisors
Relatively new project 'Cloud Hypervisor' https://github.com/cloud-hypervisor/cloud-hypervisor seems to launch images faster.

I'm releasing cargo-sandbox
The Chrome OS hypervisor was then evolved/forked into Firecracker and Intel's Cloud Hypervisor, with the latter supporting both Linux and Windows. Perhaps Cloud Hypervisor would serve as a good backbone for sandboxing, with its Rust implementation and focus on security?

Virtink : un module complémentaire de virtualisation légère pour Kubernetes …
GitHub - cloud-hypervisor/cloud-hypervisor: A Virtual Machine Monitor for modern Cloud workloads. Features include CPU, memory and device hotplug, support for running Windows and Linux guests, device offload with vhost-user and a minimal compact footprint. Written in Rust with a strong focus on security.
- Cloud Hypervisor Is an Open Source Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM)

We clone a running VM in 2 seconds
Did you guys think about live migrations? https://github.com/cloud-hypervisor/cloud-hypervisor seems to support it and it shares a good amount of code with firecracker.

Show r/kubernetes: Virtink - Lightweight Virtualization Add-on for Kubernetes
Virtink is a Kubernetes add-on for running Cloud Hypervisor virtual machines. By using Cloud Hypervisor as the underlying hypervisor, Virtink enables a lightweight and secure way to run fully virtualized workloads in a canonical Kubernetes cluster.

LAN Mouse is a mouse and keyboard sharing software
You might take some inspiration (or some code) from https://github.com/htrefil/rkvm
I've used it and it works pretty well, is written in rust, and it has one big advantage - by emulating the keyboard and mouse at the linux evdev layer it avoids touching any of the desktop-specific apis. (It also has encryption, though over TCP so has issues with managing connections. I think your choice of UDP was a good one)

My personal experience: Plasma/X11 > Plasma/Wayland
It looks like RKVM is supposed to work well, but I can't figure out how to compile the Windows client.

KVM software currently working in Wayland
only one i know is https://github.com/htrefil/rkvm which either doesn't work or has so little documentation that you probably can't figure it out yourself
What are some alternatives?
firecracker - Secure and fast microVMs for serverless computing.
barrier - Open-source KVM software
kubevirt - Kubernetes Virtualization API and runtime in order to define and manage virtual machines.
enigo - Cross platform input simulation in Rust
kata-containers - Kata Containers is an open source project and community working to build a standard implementation of lightweight Virtual Machines (VMs) that feel and perform like containers, but provide the workload isolation and security advantages of VMs. https://katacontainers.io/
kbct - Keyboard keycode mapping utility for Linux supporting layered configuration
virt-manager - Desktop tool for managing virtual machines via libvirt
ktrl - A Supercharged Keyboard Programming Daemon ⌨️
rusty-hermit - Hermit for Rust. [Moved to: https://github.com/hermit-os/hermit-rs]
click-once - A small tiny little binary to fix undesired mouse double clicks in Windows, written in Rust. Minimal executable with little to no overhead.
