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.

Rust – Are We Game Yet?
These are issues that I'm aware of that are "tracking" the status of Rust on console:
* <https://github.com/rust-gamedev/wg/issues/90>
* <https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/rust-ecosystem/issues/18>
I say scare quote tracking because due to the nature of console NDAs it's unlikely you'll see much if any useful details in an open public forum.
The issues aren't dissimilar to those facing Godot (although it has the benefit it's able to use existing C++ compilers) and the project has previously outlined some of the issues involved:
* <https://docs.godotengine.org/en/4.0/tutorials/platform/conso...>
* <https://godotengine.org/article/godot-consoles-all-you-need-...>
The current "solution" seems to be console-related development activity occurring via the recently established W4 Games (https://w4games.com/2023/02/28/godot-support-for-consoles-is...) but that's obviously never going to be openly developed without console platform approval (same as any other game engine).
- Useful Clippy lint rules outside of defaults?
- More use of Rust is inevitable in open source software

What's the advantages of Rust over C/C++ today ? Is it possible to create the best 3d engine in Rust or a AAA game like Elden Ring, FF7 remake, GTA etc with it ? If it's possible why it asn't been done yet ?
Some companies are betting on Rust, like Embark Studio (though I'm not sure their next big game, ARC Raiders, is actually fully based on Rust... but it will come !)

Why haven't the community created an open-source version of this game?

Unlikely to ever be as supported as what Epic themselves maintain though. Same for Godot. If you want to use something that will for sure support Rust, you better use a Rust project for the games.

In which circumstances is C++ better than Rust?
- Unreal https://github.com/MaikKlein/unreal-rust and if you look inside the FFI part (called workspace in Rust) at what libs it uses https://github.com/MaikKlein/unreal-rust/blob/main/unreal-ffi/Cargo.toml is cbindgen which is a FFI generator tool

and my career ended before it could start
You’re probably right that Epic sure as hell won’t rewrite the whole engine… but devs ARE making support and have been for a while: https://github.com/MaikKlein/unreal-rust

Do you feel it's a waste of time programming in C++/Rust for 3d graphics or game programming in 2022 ? Every others fields of programming seem to pay more like JS/React webdev ?
If you like Rust there are (immature) bindings for Unreal and Godot. Or you might like to use a pure Rust engine like Bevy, Fyrox etc.
What are some alternatives?
downlords-faf-client - Official client for Forged Alliance Forever
bevy - A refreshingly simple data-driven game engine built in Rust
gdextension - Rust bindings for Godot 4 [Moved to: https://github.com/godot-rust/gdext]
rustc-perf - Website for graphing performance of rustc
rx - 👾 Modern and minimalist pixel editor
wg - Coordination repository of the Game Development Working Group
slint - Slint is a declarative GUI toolkit to build native user interfaces for Rust, C++, or JavaScript apps.
sqlite3-ocaml - OCaml bindings to the SQLite3 database
oxidator - RTS game/engine in Rust and WebGPU
JoltPhysics - A multi core friendly rigid body physics and collision detection library, written in C++, suitable for games and VR applications.
