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.

What are you rewriting in rust?
But I'd suggest joining an existing project instead. This week in Rust has a call for participation section each week. There are also some exciting rewrites like arti, gitoxide, fish, and a steady stream of projects announced in this sub.
- [Gitoxide in April] A first step towards `gix status` and `.gitattributes` matching
- [Gitoxide in March]: `cargo` shallow clones PR and `gitoxide` in `cargo` nightly
-
What’s an actual use case for Rust
There's a re-implementation of git called gitoxide
- [Gitoxide in February]: `git-repository` is now `gix`, and statically known git-config keys

The Git source code audit, viewed as a Rust programmer
Gitoxide is useful in other Rust programs that need git integration, e.g. Cargo[1] or Helix[2].
I don't know how far he intends to take it, but the author of gitoxide (which is just a library, like libgit2) uses it to power a git CLI called gix. As of October it looks like it can do fetches and clones: https://github.com/Byron/gitoxide/discussions/623 .
Since the git CLI is subcommand-based, it wouldn't be too hard to provide replacements for individual git subcommands one at a time.
It'll be interesting to see where the gitoxide[1] project goes, being a rust implementation of git

The most creative, funny, clever, ridiculous, ... library names!
gitoxide, because, well, everything around rust is kind-of low-hanging fruit of puns to make

What’s everyone working on this week (1/2023)?
After having used the gitoxide lib in bacon last week so that ignored files don't trigger jobs on change, I'll try to see whether I can replace git2 with gitoxide in a few other applications. Gitoxide lib is still a little rough in parts but I really like when I can replace a native lib with a pure Rust one.

Clean mount lists in Linux
Also `dua`[0] is a great `du` replacement which is must faster on modern NVMe drives. Also has an interactive mode `dua i` which I'd frame as a `ncdu` replacement.
I also like https://github.com/Byron/dua-cli, does disk usage like du but also has an interactive mode which makes finding and freeing up space a breeze.

Erdtree v1.4.1 - the love child of `tree` and `du`, now with support for a configuration file to override defaults and more
Yeah erdtree won't scratch that itch if you prefer interactive apps. I personally wanted something to just give me quick visual info without spawning an entire terminal UI and learning its quirks. But if you're an ncdu person and are in the mood for a modern alternative I'd recommend checking out Dua

erdtree v1.2.0, a modern multi-threaded alternative to `du` and `tree` now with support for globbing, icons, and more
If it absolutely must be written in Rust, there's always dua.
I wrote filesize to help with the former, and this for the latter - though it unfortunately needs nightly on Windows for the perpetually-unstable windows_by_handle feature.
Thank you! And totally understandable. erdtree won't scratch that itch for folks who have a penchant for interactive terminal apps. As I mentioned in another thread I've gotten a lot of mileage out of the original tree program so I wanted to keep the spirit of the thing. If you want a more modern version of ncdu perhaps you might like dua!

Ncdu – NCurses Disk Usage
If you like ncdu, you might also like dua[0]. You can run `dua i` to get an interface similar to ncdu, and can also run `dua` to list file sizes in the current directory, similar to `du`. Or `dua filename` to get the size of a given file.

I wrote a "12 favourite terminal tools" list-article, what did I left out that should be absolutely included?
Another one I used for years until I found dua-cli. It can be run as a TUI with dua -i for a ncdu like interface.
What are some alternatives?
ncdu - inofficial fork of "NCurses Disk Usage"
dust - A more intuitive version of du in rust
EdenSCM - A Scalable, User-Friendly Source Control System. [Moved to: https://github.com/facebook/sapling]
ht - Friendly and fast tool for sending HTTP requests
Symphonia - Pure Rust multimedia format demuxing, tag reading, and audio decoding library
freenet-core - Declare your digital independence
delta - A syntax-highlighting pager for git, diff, and grep output
CompactGUI - Transparently compress active games and programs using Windows 10/11 APIs [Moved to: https://github.com/IridiumIO/CompactGUI]
cloneit - A cli tool to download specific GitHub directories or files
fff - 📁 A simple file manager written in bash.
exa - A modern replacement for ‘ls’.
btop - A monitor of resources
