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.

GPU Programming: When, Why and How?
There is no on-going work to support Metal apart from the work done by Miles. There's an old issue about it: https://github.com/diku-dk/futhark/issues/853#issuecomment-5...
We actually have a long-standing issue regarding WebGPU[0]. Long story short, we want to support it, and Athas did some exploratory work a couple of years ago and decided that WebGPU wasn't mature enough yet. We already have a WebAssembly backend, so as soon as it is possible to access WebGPU from WebAssembly it should be relatively straightforward.

Is Parallel Programming Hard, and, If So, What Can You Do About It? v2023.06.11a
Functional programming can be a great way to handle parallel programming in a sane way. See the Futhark language [1], for example, that accepts high-level constructs like map and convert them to the appropriate machine code, either on the CPU or the GPU.
-
Is there a programming language that will blow my mind?
Futhark - use a functional language to program the gpu
-
Does This Language Exist?
You might want to look into Futhark, although it's mainly designed for writing GPU code.

Learn WebGPU
I recently became aware of a high-level language called Futhark [1] that fits well in that space. It is statically-typed and functional.
Maybe some other array languages work in the GPU as well, I don't know.

Vcc โ The Vulkan Clang Compiler
Sounds cool, but this requires yet another language to learn[0]. As someone who only has limited knowledge in this space, could someone tell me how comparable is the compute functionality of rust-gpu[1], where I can just write rust?

Candle: Torch Replacement in Rust
I don't do anything related to data science, but I feel like doing it in Rust would be nice.
You get operator overloading, so you can have ergonomic matrix operations that are typed also. Processing data on the CPU is fast, and crates like https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/rust-gpu make it very ergonomic to leverage the GPU.
I like this library for creating typed coordinate spaces for graphics programming (https://github.com/servo/euclid), I imagine something similar could be done to create refined types for matrices so you don't do matrix multiplication matrices of invalid sizes

What's the coolest Rust project you've seen that made you go, 'Wow, I didn't know Rust could do that!'?
Do you mean rust-gpu?

And https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/rust-gpu/tree/main/examples with the wgpu runner (here it runs the compute shader)
-
What is Rust's potential in game development?
I don't know how major they are considered, but Embark Studios is doing quite a bit of Rust in the open source space, most notably (IMO) rust-gpu and kajiya
-
[rust-gpu] How do I run/build my own shaders locally?
Long story short, I watched this video about shader programs, and got inspired to try writing shader programs in Rust. I came across rust-gpu which seems to fit the bill. My problem is that I don't really understand its documentation for this particular part.
The examples in the rust-gpu repository are a good place to start

Introducing posh: Type-Safe Graphics Programming in Rust
Could this approach work for compute shaders (GPGPU) as well? So far, I think https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/rust-gpu is the state of the art in that area, but it adds a specific Rust compiler backend for generating SPIR-V rather than leaving that up to the driver. That seems more complicated than it needs to be... but maybe it has advantages too? Thoughts?

Looking for high level GPU computing crate

Whatโs everyone working on this week (19/2023)?
My focus this week has been on planning and assisting with architecture changes that help us fully integrate the node graph compositing engine we built over the past year. Upcoming tech we're working towards includes full utilization of the node graph to power all our layers; adopting WebGPU (now out in Chrome) into our editor using WGPU and rust-gpu; setting up a Tauri build and deployment; and building a backend web service to handle user accounts for document storage, hosting rustc to compile custom graphics effect nodes written by users in Rust, and Stable Diffusion image generation on AWS EC2 GPU instances.
