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.

ffizz: Build a Beautiful C API in Rust
The tooling for the first kind -- calling Rust from another language -- is a bit less developed, and tends to rely on code generation that doesn't necessarily produce a natural C API. cbindgen, uniffi, cxx, and Diplomat all take this course.

ICU4X 1.2: Now With Text Segmentation and More on Low-Resource Devices
I don't think that accurately describes what ICU4X does. It generates code directly in the language needed using Diplomat. Which currently supports JS/TS/Wasm, C, C++, and .NET, but we plan to support more (Dart is actively being worked on, there is a lot of interest in Java). Diplomat is designed to be relatively easy to write backends for: you have to write code that converts its internal IR to bindings code, so you mostly need to understand that internal IR and figure out how to idiomatically map it to other languages.

Multi-language library support: Is it possible?

Anyone interested in open-sourcing high-level memory-safe bindgen for Dart/Flutter <–> Rust?
I'm not that interested in a separate tool for this but it would be really cool to have a dart plugin as a part of Diplomat. Diplomat's not fully polished yet but it's totally okay to add new language backends to it. (Eventually I plan to restructure it so that it has a cleaner plugin interface, but for now "checked into tree" is fine for backends)

ffizz: Build a Beautiful C API in Rust
Rust supports two kinds of FFI: calling into Rust from another language; and calling into another language from Rust. Most of the thought and tooling that exists right now is organized around the second kind. For example, bindgen is a popular tool that generates useful Rust wrappers from a C or C++ header file.

Best practices in creating a Rust API for a C++ library? Seeking advice from those who've done it before.
I have looked into bindgen, but found that it would not be feasible due to OMPL not having a C API, just C++.
-
the graphics driver doesn't work on gentoo.
Yes! Are you running LLVM version 16.0.0 or newer, by any chance? I believe this is an issue with some builds of bindgen with newer versions of LLVM. See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-bindgen/issues/2488
-
Any sort of plugin engine with dynamic load ability and any limitations?
On native, you have to define a C API, probably using a header file. Even if both sides are implemented in Rust, they have to speak that C API (documentation).

How can I use rust libraries in C++
Bindgen has some functionality for direct talk to C++ https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-bindgen

Issue resolving dependencies when linking C libraries
I am trying to use rust-bindgen (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-bindgen) to link a static C library (say `libexample.a`) which is compiled in a separate project with CMake. The `libexample.a` depends on other libraries (for example `libcurl.a`) installed on the system.

I implemented a NASA image compression algorithm
It looks like the guy you're replying too was kind of an ass, but I do want to point out for anyone else reading that that's not actually that much of a technical limitation: rust code can natively call C code. The main thing you need is a translation of the C library's header file so rustc knows what C functions and structs exist, and that can be automatically generated with bindgen.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (5/2023)!
It's quite the different approach, but you could consider using bindgen instead.

Control hardware using c# or c++ API (dll)
Use bindgen or CXX to create Rust bindings for the C or C++ libraries.
