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.

Maestro: A Linux-compatible kernel in Rust
One of the inspirations for Rust, as I recall, was Cyclone: https://cyclone.thelanguage.org/
Which was/is a "safe" dialect of C; basically C extended with a bunch of the stuff that made it into Rust (algebraic datatypes, pattern matching, etc.) Though its model of safety is not the borrow checker model that Rust has.
Always felt to me like something like Cyclone would be the natural direction for OS development to head in, as it fits better with existing codebases and skillsets.
In any case, I'm happy to see this stuff happening in Rust.

C for All
It sounds like they re-invented Cyclone.

Is it possible to have a superset of the C programming languages standard that is as safe as Rust?
Looks like it was a research project and is now abandoned: http://cyclone.thelanguage.org

Need to learn FAST... Any recommendations for a free interactive rust course?
The borrow checker is Rust's secret sauce. It's the one thing no other language has. (Except Cyclone I think, which is an unmaintained research language.)
- What do you think about a C transpiler?

Is my method of programming wrong?
Also, lifetimes are not the mechanism by which Rust ensures safety - it's a necessary side-effect of the approach that Rust has taken, and this has nothing to do with the issues that "plague" other languages. Region-based memory management techniques are neither new nor really innovative. https://cyclone.thelanguage.org/, which directly inspired Rust, had them, and the authors gave up working on it because the ergonomics were terrible, as is the case with Rust. Lifetimes are needed for the Rust compiler to reason about what it can reasonably allow at compile time, but it, along with the Borrow Checker (which provides the actual safety net) ensures that whole swathes of valid programs are disallowed because the Rust compiler is not smart enough (and probably never will be) to check that these programs are valid.

Making a Wayland Compositor and WM using Rust
Maybe take a look at cosmic-comp it is currently in development by System76 for their own Cosmic DE. Smithay also has Anvil and Smallvil contained in it's repository, both are example implementations of a compositor using Smithay.

Is the new Cosmic DE going to improve stability, performance and especially BATTERY on pop OS?
COSMIC DE isn't a singular thing, it's a project of several smaller projects being built on top of each other, like the cosmic-text project that'll be used for font rendering and this new cosmic-comp UI compositor project.

Rust in industry
we have a lot of Rust projects of different scopes, but I am mostly working on cosmic-comp, a wayland compositor for our new upcoming Linux Desktop Environment. All Open-Source: https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-comp

Will the Pop_OS Cosmic Desktop environment support Wayland?
Thanks for the reply /u/mmstick. Also, would you know what causes this issue: https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-comp/issues/28 I keep running into it when trying to compile cosmic-epoch

COSMIC Panel First Look
We hired the talent behind smithay, and cosmic-comp is based on it, which has been developed to the point where we have an early prototype with some functioning wayland-shell applets.
