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.

Where do I start for creating a windowed app in pure rust?
If you find dealing with the Obj-C bindings a bit daunting (I would), I'd recommend you use the objc crate. That will like you dive into the details of creating and updating Mac windows without having to figure out how to call Objective C from Rust.

Calling Apple built-in (Swift) APIs from Rust
There is https://github.com/SSheldon/rust-objc which is abandoned.

How to capture the contents of applications' windows and display them in real-time
On macOS, per-window capture is actually exceedingly easy and officially supported by Apple, either including window shadows or not. I'm not aware of any crate for doing it cross-platform, but the way to do it on macOS is documented all over the Internet and the bindings you need are in the objc and core-graphics crates.

GPU computing on Apple Silicon
That looks like Objective C, not C. You can call Objective C methods from Rust via the objc crate.

Hello World in Go From Rust
Golang uses cgo to communicate with external C libraries and Rust uses FFI (Foreign function interfaces) to export C functions. Additionally, a library for automatically generating bindings can be used to generate the header files (.h). In our case, we'll only be exporting two C functions, so using cbindgen is overkill but we'll use it regardless because why not? Firstly, we'll write the rust functions we want to export. We'll start by creating a new rust library:

Nim v2.0 Released
As a 2-step approach, you could also probably use https://github.com/mozilla/cbindgen and then Nim's native C FFI.

ffizz: Build a Beautiful C API in Rust
The tooling for the first kind -- calling Rust from another language -- is a bit less developed, and tends to rely on code generation that doesn't necessarily produce a natural C API. cbindgen, uniffi, cxx, and Diplomat all take this course.

How can I use rust libraries in zig/C
There's also cbindgen for automating the generation of C headers once you've got your code in the right shape and you'll also want to read the Rustonomicon.

You can backport Rust standard library to C using https://github.com/eqrion/cbindgen .

Rust FFI and cbindgen: Integrating Embedded Rust Code in C
Later we'll see what cbindgen essentially does is receive a configuration and a Rust library and then spit out a C header (.h) file. One might think that what cbindgen is doing might not be that special and can be done by hand. In which some cases that might be true if the project is simple enough. Though additionally as the cbindgen documentation states:
-
Nautilus just fucked me. (Gnome paper cuts)
Fuck it, I'll take the bait. Rust allows for amazing C interop by allowing for exporting of C types as a dynamic library, like C. Unlike C, this still allows for Rust's advanced checking at compile time. librsvg is one such library that is being used in the GTK ecosystem that is also almost completely Rust. You can use tools like cbindgen to generate C bindings.

Or alternatively cbindgen to create the header file from the Rust source.
