rust-game-ports VS realworld

Regarding 2D development, you may want to have a look at the Rust Game Ports project, in order to have a hands-on understanding of how development with the Rust game engine actually is.

rust-game-ports is now officially supported by the Rust GameDev WG. By having this repo on neutral ground, we want to invite the Rust gamedev community to contribute additional game examples to this bundle, so we may collectively expand our comparison-matrix of similar/same games made in different engines. A bit like the realworld app taken one step further.

1 final announcement is I am taking the 2019 tutorial from u/thebracket and porting it to bevy (Bevy GitHub). I really enjoy working in bevy so this is a fun side project. I have been in the talks with 64kramsystem and adding the port to the Rust Game Dev game ports repo as an example to follow. I might make a book out of it, I have not decided yet. Fun stuff in the works!

In order to do that, I needed a solid way to bridge the gap between Bracket-lib and Bevy. 64kramsystems has done an amazing job of porting Hands-on Rust to Bevy - it's really great! It still uses bracket-lib for the rendering, but shows you how you can use Bevy as just the ECS. I decided to go a step further, and get bracket-lib running as a first-class Bevy citizen. Thus, bracket-bevy was born.

In light of all this, it became exceedingly clear that someone else needed to step in and help. Why not me? Well, it can be me. And, after 3 months of development, I am happy to announce (again) dwayne/elm-conduit (demo), an open-source Elm SPA for RealWorld's Medium.com clone.

It's just for web app (a Todo app). Your GIS AND CLI ideas are interesting, I haven't seen anything similar to realworld for those.

So what would be a better benchmark? Perhaps a "standard" "real world" app, like https://github.com/gothinkster/realworld

Or something simpler?

RealWorld example app is a full-stack application called "Conduit" that consists of a backend that serves JSON API and a frontend UI. There are numerous implementations for different languages and frameworks, but in this tutorial you will be using the Spring backend and the React frontend.

Github has millions of projects, some large fraction with more than 100 stars, so it doesn't seem like you are searching very hard. But more importantly, why "100 stars"? Stars are meaningless and arbitrary. Many developers use stars like bookmarks. I just did a quick search and noticed a project like realworld (just a demo for learning, 65 contributors) has have more stars than Bitcoin (900+ developers, perhaps you have heard of it?)

I feel you, context API sometimes overcomplicates everything. Let me introduce to you RealWorld. It is a great project that uses composition to make its structure scalable. It is actually a codebase that implements various fragments of a larger scale project such as Medium or Twitter. Check it out here: https://github.com/gothinkster/realworld. I hope this helps!
