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.

Need a new args parser
That's because the maintainer does not consider it an issue but an implementation detail: https://github.com/RazrFalcon/pico-args/issues/15
-
An alternative to clap but with a stable API?
Maybe pico-args then?
-
Immediately off the top of your head what is the best Rust CLI library.
If I forget to get around to it, would you mind poking RazrFalcon/pico-args about adding it to the comparison chart? I really like using that thing as something I can link people to with just a quick explanation of that particular trade-off.

Best CLI arg parser for use in Rust to port from Perl with Getopt::Long?
If fewer dependencies is better, you can't get much fewer than pico-args, which has zero dependencies.
- What is the current proper way to get command line args ?

Creating an Argparse library [feedback would be appreciated]
You might also want to check out pico-args, Gumdrop, and lexopt to see if any of them meet your needs.

Can we please stop downvoting people who dislike Rust?
For example, The Rust compiler isn't slow; we are. and pico-args: Alternatives.

New:`cargo-fuzzcheck` 0.5.0 and a series of decent, fast-to-compile crates to replace `syn`, `quote`, `serde-json`, and `toml-rs`
For example, I'd love to go from StructOpt to Gumdrop for parsing command-line arguments and cut my compile times and output size by an order of magnitude, but Gumdrop uses String internally, which means it'll panic if it encounters a Windows path with un-paired surrogates or a mojibake'd posix path... some of which I actually have.

We Don't Need a Stable ABI
Can confirm, https://github.com/rust-fuzz/auto-fuzz-test was hard write to write (and still isn't production ready) precisely because the compiler doesn't expose type information.

Win32 API fuzzer, to help develop Wine
This is super interesting! I've tried auto-generating fuzzing harnesses for arbitrary Rust functions as well: https://github.com/rust-fuzz/auto-fuzz-test
-
The `arbitrary` crate is approaching 1.0!
We've been leaning on this crate heavily in https://github.com/rust-fuzz/auto-fuzz-test, and it's really nice to see support for borrowed types materialize!
-
New:`cargo-fuzzcheck` 0.5.0 and a series of decent, fast-to-compile crates to replace `syn`, `quote`, `serde-json`, and `toml-rs`
Interesting! We'll need to try it with https://github.com/rust-fuzz/auto-fuzz-test, since we're getting mysterious segfaults from our cargo-fuzz/libfuzzer backend right now.

Unsafe Rust: How and when (not) to use it - LogRocket Blog
Specifically, I tried leading a fuzzing effort via https://github.com/rust-fuzz/auto-fuzz-test, but right now it's not quite production-ready. We have good progress in proc_macro branch, but that's geared towards crates, and it's not entirely clear how to apply that to the standard library.
