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.

- How does webgpu planning to use webgl shaders?
-
I want to talk about WebGPU
That wouldn't have been all that different from WGSL though, the most important thing is that whatever WebGPU uses for its shaders can be translated to and from SPRIV (and WGSL does that too (e.g. via https://dawn.googlesource.com/tint and https://github.com/gfx-rs/naga).
-
Survey: How have shader compilation messages been for you?
Hey all, wanted to put this link in here, where I'm proposing changing the API for errors in naga, so Naga can take ownership of error presentation and actually Make Shader Compilation Messages Comfy™: https://github.com/gfx-rs/naga/issues/2317
-
Start project on Metal, port to DX11?
EDIT: There is also naga but it does not take HLSL as input: https://github.com/gfx-rs/naga but you can use DirectXShaderCompiler to compile to SpirV, then use naga to compile to Metal.

Chrome ships WebGPU (available by default in Chrome 113)
And it seems that naga https://github.com/gfx-rs/naga Already has a working front/backend for wgsl.

Ray query example in Blade
This is basically Ray Tracing support in Blade. So far, only ray queries are supported. Unlike prior work on ray tracing in Rust, this is original due to all shader code being WGSL, see the Naga PR.
-
Does WGSL work well with vulkan?
There's a compiler that can translate from WGSL to SPIR-V called naga. Having such a compiler is essential, since WebGPU is planned to use WGSL and browsers are expected to implement rendering via Vulkan (and probably Metal and DX12).
-
Glsl transpiler, interpreter?
Not sure about on the CPU, but naga is a shading language transpiler you can write custom front/backends for.
-
Any guides/documentation on the WGSL shading language?
The spec docs are actually pretty useful https://www.w3.org/TR/WGSL/ besides that I was using naga's tests for reference https://github.com/gfx-rs/naga/tree/master/tests
-
How are Vulkan, CUDA, Triton and all other things connected?
For cross-platform support look at WebGPU and Vulkan (e.g,: [0] [1]. Essentially, you would need to write the func in WGSL or GLSL, HLSL or MSL. Each of these can be cross-compiled to SPIR-V (what Vulkan needs) with cross-compilers such as spirv-cross and naga.

Vcc – 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?

How a Nerdsnipe Led to a Fast Implementation of Game of Life
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?
The examples in the rust-gpu repository are a good place to start

Posh: Type-Safe Graphics Programming in Rust
There's another project that's similar that's being used by an actual game company: https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/rust-gpu
They see specific advantages here that would outweigh that negative. It's not my space (I play games, but know next to nothing about graphics programming), but there's at least one argument in the other direction.
-
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
https://github.com/embarkstudios/rust-gpu Allows you to create shaders (kernals) in Rust.

With what languages are video games like League of Legends (most likely) programmed?
Also Embark Studios (formers DICE people) is doing a lot of work with Rust, all open source like Rust GPU https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/rust-gpu
