Our great sponsors
The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

A system Steam should add
I do have education and real experience in the field. See, for example, my recent work on the rather arcane subject of Rust↔Java FFI. You don't get to pull rank with me, son. I know quite well what CreateFile does. (Fun fact: it creates a file handle, i.e. opens a file, and may or may not create the file itself.)

Having trouble understanding JNI
I've been playing around with jni-rs, I'm eventually planning on developing an app with Java gui and Rust backend. However I'm having some trouble advancing past HelloWorld lol. For example, here's some simple code that doesn't work and I really can't figure out why:
-
Portability of Rust in 2021
- JNI - how well does https://github.com/jni-rs/jni-rs work? Assuming that Firefox runs on Android and uses Rust this should be reasonable to work with?

Project Ideas
Even so, staying relatively close to the Java focus of the class might be a good idea, since it will help prepare you for the AP exam. One idea would be using jni-rs to build Java bindings for a useful Rust library. Interesting candidates might be io-uring, lockfree, or even pyo3, if you wanted to try your hand at integrating Java and Python.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing perl-xs and jni-rs you can also consider the following projects:
mi-rust - Helpers to build Perl extensions written in Rust.
j4rs - Java for Rust
java-rust-example - Embedding Rust in Java
RustJNI - Run Java code from Rust!
rucaja
cbindgen - A project for generating C bindings from Rust code
Buzzard - 🦀 Learning Rust by Examples.
rust-jni-sys
rFmt
rust-jdbc - Rust-JDBC bindings
onnx-tensorflow - Tensorflow Backend for ONNX
onnxruntime - ONNX Runtime: cross-platform, high performance ML inferencing and training accelerator
