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.

ESP32 example project
The esp-template issue might be this one: https://github.com/esp-rs/rust/issues/158. Try with --release or updating to 1.68.0 with espup update. I'll take a look at the log as soon as I can, atm Im on the phone and is not that easy to scroll through :(

Are there any Rust forks out there?
Sure. Espressif maintains a fork which adds support for their microcontrollers.

Would it be possible to compile openssl-sys for esp32
I am trying to make a vaccine passport validation for my country using the ESP32 for my micro controller. I have gotten the std rust library to compile using (esp-rs)[https://github.com/esp-rs/rust], but the actual validation library that I use needs openssl which refuses to compile.

Are there situations where it's better to use C++?
Xtensa. They've got a fork of LLVM that supports it that they're working toward getting upstreamed. The community has a fork of rustc that uses it (and a quickstart crate) while we wait for it to get upstreamed.

Multi-use kernel written in Rust
It only works if you have an Xtensa compiler which takes hours to compile, here: Rust Xtensa (if you don't have it). The network driver is just a function that sets the name of the driver so the Esp32 does something other that blinking.
- Could IOTA transaction be started solely from the IoT capable device (like esp32)?

Contributing to Elixir Documentation: My Journey with PR #14501
While reading the Elixir documentation and exploring its ecosystem, I found an opportunity to improve the documentation about an important anti-pattern - non-assertive map access. This article shares my experience submitting PR #14501 and the valuable lessons I learned about effective documentation through collaboration with Elixir's core team.

ABEND dump #15
The first time I saw and used something similar was using doctests in Elixir 3 years ago, but cram tests are much more versatile. In dune, you can use whichever executable binary. You can make your documentation executable. How cool is that!?

Haskell: A Great Procedural Language
I was wrong about this. Case is a macro (a special-cased macro even, defined at https://github.com/elixir-lang/elixir/blob/4def31f8abea5fba4...), not a function. It works with pipes because in the AST it's a call, unlike in Haskell where case is its own thing.

How to use queue data structure in programming
Knowing this information, we can start writing our implementation of this data structure. The easiest way to implement this will be through another data structure, an array. To implement this, I will use Elixir, a dynamic, functional programming language that has absorbed the best programming patterns, and I like it a lot.
