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.

Xkcd 2916: Machine
Ok, so this uses https://rapier.rs/ which is very cool
Rapier, alongside https://nalgebra.org/ (which it uses underneath) has seriously good documentation and some advanced features like cross-platform determinism (something made hard by the way floating point differs between platforms)

Geometric Algebra to Geometric Computing Software Developers
> Some GA libraries[1][2] define types for the different kind of objects (grades)
That's nice!
This reminds of me things like, linear algebra libraries that will type-check matrices so that a 2x2 matrix can't be added to a 2x3 matrix (but then you can have a dynamic matrix that will error only in runtime), like https://nalgebra.org/ and others.

Has anyone worked on a math library before?
Maybe start by looking at https://nalgebra.org/ to see what rust math libraries might look like
-
faer 0.8.0 release
And Nalgebra, while better, also seems to have slowed down on commits and responses to issues and PRs. I have a PR there for a relatively simple wrapper type for row vectors which was explicitly requested by a maintainer, which hasn't even gotten a comment since for two weeks.

Science-related crates that I should have a look at?
nalgebra is for linear algebra.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here! (31/2022)!
Take a look into math libraries, like glam, nalgebra, and cgmath. I've only used these through game engines, though, so I can't offer per-basis reviews/advice.

C++ is making me depressed / CUDA question
If you do not need GPU then I would recommend looking into Eigen in C++, nalgebra in Rust (with a BLAS in both cases for improved performance) or one of the above options (Julia / Python+JAX).

Bevy XPBD: A physics engine for the Bevy game engine
What are the pros and cons compared to something like Rapier? When should one use Bevy XPBD instead of Rapier, or vice versa?

What's everyone working on this week (22/2023)?
Still using Rust in a browser-based multiplayer party game I'm working on! I'm using Actix Web for the backend and rapier2d to handle my game's physics. I'm looking to make some more connections amongst the developer / gaming community through my game down the line.

Constructing a piston/muscle/gas strut in bevy_rapier3d?
I have noticed that Rapier 0.17 contains a RopeJoint struct, which constrains maximum distance between two dynamic bodies. It doesn't seem to have found its way into bevy_rapier3d yet so I haven't understood whether it supports (half of) my use case, and looking at the code (https://github.com/dimforge/rapier/blob/master/src/dynamics/joint/rope_joint.rs) I really cannot see how it is actually implemented and how I could extend it to also set a minimum distance, but this may be a place to start.

Next part of my platformer in bevy series
I was also frustrated with the kcc, so I opened a PR that fixes most of my issues: https://github.com/dimforge/rapier/pull/446

What libraries does Idris need to increase adoption?
Likewise, see the js bindings of Rapier.

Good resources for structuring a 2d physics engine in Rust?
Maybe check out how Rapier does it. Rapier is likely the most advanced physics engine in Rust. (Though Embark Studios is doing some crazy stuff with ML physics.)
