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.

Oxlint – written in Rust – 50-100 Times Faster than ESLint
If I understand it right, we have 3 large projects that aim to replace most of JS tools on their own: Bun[0], Oxc[1] and Biome[2]. Bun's package manager is great, Biome formatter recently reached 96% compatibility with Prettier, and now Oxlint is apparently good enough to replace ESLint at Shopify. Exciting times ahead.
But it's giving the impression that these projects perhaps could be better off collaborating instead of each of them aiming to eat the world on their own?

Ask HN: Who wants to be hired? (December 2023)
Email: [email protected]
Hi, I'm u9g. I'm looking for an internship for either this winter (in a few weeks) or a summer internship!
Some things I've done:
I integrated a [query engine for lints](https://github.com/obi1kenobi/trustfall) (and contributed optimizations) into [OXC](https://github.com/oxc-project/oxc) (a new Rust-based Javascript Linter).
I wrote [several](https://github.com/u9g/money-lens) [toy](https://github.com/u9g/quickquestion/tree/main/extension) languages and syntax highlighting for them.
I also wrote a [js-to-scheme transpiler](https://github.com/u9g/js2scheme/blob/main/example.js).
Happy to work on things compiler or database oriented, but also happy to learn something new!

I'm fed up with it, so I'm writing a browser
Would you consider using some libraries in your project? There are lots of good ones in the Rust ecosystem, and many of them are not part of any existing browsers.
For example:
- https://github.com/servo/html5ever (HTML parsing - note: this is used in Servo)
- https://github.com/parcel-bundler/lightningcss (CSS parsing)
- https://github.com/DioxusLabs/taffy (web layout)
- https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-text (text layout and rendering)
Obviously you should be free to work on whatever you like, but just as a benchmark on the scope of your project: I spent ~6 months implementing just the CSS Grid algorithm in Taffy last year. An entire browser from literal scratch is probably a 10 year project for one person.

We're building a browser when it's supposed to be impossible
Libraries for a lot of this stuff exist (albeit in many cases not very mature yet):
- https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-text does text layout (which Taffy explicitly considers out of scope)
- https://github.com/AccessKit/accesskit does accessibility
- https://github.com/servo/rust-cssparser does value-agnostic CSS parsing (it will parse the general syntax but leaves value parsing up to the user, meaning you can easily add support for whatever properties you what). Libraries like https://github.com/parcel-bundler/lightningcss implement parsing for the standard css properties.
- There are crates like https://github.com/BurntSushi/bstr and https://docs.rs/wtf8/latest/wtf8/ for working with non-unicode text
We are planning to add a C API to Taffy, but tbh I feel like C is not very good for this kind of modularised approach. You really want to be able to expose complex APIs with enforced type safety and this isn't possible with C.

On Using Rust in Parcel and Vitest
You can do it - that's actually exactly what my project is doing. I have a single repository with a Rust project, that builds the .wasm file (+ .d.ts + .js) using wasm-pack, and a Node.js project, that uses this .wasm file. There's no problem in packing that and exposing as a npm package. See parcel-bundler/lightningcss for a full blown example (it's not using wasm-pack but builds the Rust project directly).
