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.
- Rust-Xtensa: Rust for Xtensa Processors. Built in Targets for the ESP32/ESP8266
-
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)?

How to Write a PHP Extension with Zig?
When writing code in a scripting language, sometimes you need that extra bit of performance (or maybe an async feature from Zig).

Bun - The One Tool for All Your JavaScript/Typescript Project's Needs?
NodeJS is by no means a slow runtime, it wouldn’t be so popular if it was. But compared to Bun, it’s slow. Bun was built from the ground up with speed in mind, using both JavascriptCore and Zig. The Bun team spent an enormous amount of time and energy trying to make Bun fast, including lots of profiling, benchmarking, and optimizations.

ntdll.dll!RtlUserThreadStart()
There are valid reasons to use APIs from NTDLL. Where I disagree with zig#1840 is the idea that it is always better to use NTDLL versions of API. Every other software ecosystem uses the standard Win32 APIs and diverging from that without a good reason seems like a good way to have unexpected behavior. One concrete example is most users and programmers expect Windows to redirect some file system paths when running on WOW64. But this is implemented in Kernel32, not ntdll.

MicroZig: Unified abstraction layer and HAL for Zig on several microcontrollers
ESP32 and STM32 support is very welcome!

Asynchronous Clean-Up (in Rust)
I have never used it directly, take what I say with a grain of salt.
As far as I know at least part of the idea was to eliminate the function coloring problem by letting the compiler do some nifty compile-time deductions. This had some issues (I don't know if this is still planned, it seems like the kind of thing that should not work in practice). Additionally, there were all sorts of hard technical issues with LLVM, debugging, etc.
I recommend checking the issue tracker, eg. https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/6025
I personally don't understand the domain well enough at all, but honestly, I feel like (if possible) Zig should try to double down on its allocator approach.
Instead of trying to use some compile-time deduction magic explicitly pass around an "async runtime/executor" struct which you explicitly have to interact with. Why not?

Show HN: Tokamak – A Dependency Injection-Centric Server-Side Framework for Zig
Yes, fundamentally. In Rust if you take a parameter of generic type T without any bounds, you cannot call anything on it except for things which are defined for all types. If you specify bounds, only things required by the bounds can be called (+ the ones for all types). Another difference is where you get an error when you try pass something which doesn't adhere to a certain trait. In Rust you will get an error at the call site, not at the place of use (except if you don't specify any bounds).
Zig is doing just fine without any trait mechanism and it simplifies the language a lot but it does come up from time to time. The usual solution is to just get type information via @typeInfo and error out if the type is something you're not expecting [0]. Not everybody is happy about it though [1] because, among other things, it makes it more difficult to discover what the required type actually is.
