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.

- Common Rust Lifetime Misconceptions
-
What are some good resources for experienced programmers new to Rust to learn about lifetimes?
Hands down the best resource (after you've had sufficient experience with Rust, especially so) - https://github.com/pretzelhammer/rust-blog/blob/master/posts/common-rust-lifetime-misconceptions.md
-
How can a parameter type `T` be not long living enough?
I really really recommend reading this to understand lifetimes and generics in Rust better.
- What learning resource has had the greatest impact in elevating your understanding and knowledge of Rust?
- I do not understand why Sized bound prevents a trait from being used as a trait object.

Lifetime annotations: why doesn't Rust?
It's already now that the elided lifetimes are not always correct, as pointed out in Common Rust Lifetime Misconceptions (No 5) by pretzelhammer.

Resources on Lifetimes
Probably a bit more advanced than what you asked about, but still possibly useful: Common Rust Lifetime Misconceptions by /u/pretzelhammer.

Borrow checker puzzles
This helped me a lot understanding Rust ownership rules and lifetimes: https://github.com/pretzelhammer/rust-blog/blob/master/posts/common-rust-lifetime-misconceptions.md

The Linux Kernel Prepares for Rust 1.77 Upgrade
> If you are equally picky and constrain yourself to parts of the ecosystem which care about binary size, you still have more options and can avoid size issues.
What's an example of this for, say, libcurl? On my system it has a tiny number of recursive dependencies, around a dozen. [0] Furthermore if I want to write a C program that uses libcurl I have to download zero bytes of data ... because it's a shared library that is already installed on my system, since so many programs already use it.
I don't really know the appropriate comparison for Rust. reqwest seems roughly comparable, but it's an HTTP client library, and not a general purpose network client like curl. Obviously curl can do a lot more. Even the list of direct dependencies for reqwest is quite long [1], and it's built on top of another http library [2] that has its own long list of dependencies, a list that includes tokio, no small library itself.
In terms of final binary size, the installed size of the curl package on my system, which includes both the command line tool and development dependencies for libcurl, is 1875.03 KiB.
[0] I'm excluding the dependency on the ca-certificates package, since this only provides the certificate chain for TLS and lots of programs rely on it.

ReductStore 1.6.0 has been released with new license and client SDK for Rust
ReductStore was rewritten from C++ to Rust a few months ago. We are delighted to be part of the Rust community and have taken a new step towards Rust with the Client SDK. The SDK is powered by reqwest and enables asynchronous integration of the database into Rust applications:

Rust dependency woes
From what I could turn up when googling the specific error lines (here), it has something to do with the crate mio not having support for WASM, but I don’t understand what’s being said on this thread.

Using Auth0 with Tauri
You can use the tauri-plugin-deep-link crate to register your app as a protocol handler. After you get your code, you can exchange it for an auth token in the same manner as the Electron guide, but for Rust you can use reqwest for the HTTP call.

Authentication system using rust (actix-web) and sveltekit - Automated testing
When starting out, we made some design decisions at the backend. The decision will allow us to independently test the service without interfering with the real application using a term called integration testing. We'll utilize two "dev" packages: reqwest and fake. Dev dependencies only get introduced into your application in development or during testing. In production, they are not included:

How can I save a blob:<url> to my hard disk? Im currently using Rust to scrape a website, however I dont even know if that is possible
It's possible, you will want to use crates like https://docs.rs/reqwest/ to download the page and https://docs.rs/scraper/ to extract elements from the page.

Becoming Rustacean:Awesome Free Online Resources to Learn Rust Programming
Rust allows me to mainly only run the application to confirm things work from a business perspective.
For people starting out building stuff in rust - understand that there is a distinction of async code and libraries and can lead to confusing compiler errors if you don't realize there is a distinction. It's simple in hindsight but did cause me to waste hours barking up the wrong trees at first. Other wise just learn about `match` and Result/Option types asap, they're fundamental.
https://github.com/http-rs/tide tide is great to create an http server / routes
https://github.com/djc/askama I use this to template out HTML and it checks all my boxes, dynamic data, passing in functions, control flow.
https://github.com/launchbadge/sqlx sql interface for a variety of backend, async safe.
https://github.com/seanmonstar/reqwest http client to make requests
Rust is amazing, don't let the initial few speed bumps discourage you - building real things with rust is no more challenging today than any other modern language stack.
