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.

Ask HN: Best practices of publishing a forked repo
It depends how useful you think the patch is, and maybe also how likely you think it will get merged.
In most cases I simply keep my fork as a PR and use the package either by vendoring or directly from the repo. If anyone else encounters the same bug, they will see my PR referencing the issue, they can do the same.
If many people are encountering the bug and using the package, and/or if the project seems dead, then it's a good idea to publish. You can do username prefix or you can just add "2" at the end. I've seen this for other repos, This is what https://crates.io/crates/zmq2 did while https://crates.io/crates/zmq was inactive, though it seems like the latter's maintainer became active and merged what the former's maintainer had done.

Mouse Server for Linux
I have been using https://crates.io/crates/zmq since 2015 (shortly after rust 1.0 was announced) in production with pub-sub, request-reply and router without any issue. Processes about 5k msg/seconds (mid-freq market data).

Programming sockets with Rust and socket2
I learned a lot about sockets with the library ZeroMQ, although at that time I was using the Python version. This library also has a Rust library, although it doesn't look like the amazing guide about sockets allows you to select Rust as of yet. Still I would recommend going through this guide, as it is not just teaching you how to use a library, but also teaches you about sockets at a theoretical level. It's entertaining to read as well.

Rust for Windows
I think maybe the ZeroMQ rust crate as a case study is something that is non-trivial: https://github.com/erickt/rust-zmq

9 years of Apple text editor solo dev
You can use Rust with QML[1].
QML is actually pretty amazing. I've been building my block editor[2] view entirely in QML while the model is in C++. This separation of logic and presentation works great. And yes, there are some crashes sometimes (that I find quite easy to debug thanks to the built-in debugger), but take for example a similar app that's built with Rust and Dart[3], in my testing there were still memory leaks that caused my computer to hang. It's better to know you have a bug than for it to be hidden from you.
I agree with parent commenter, saying these cross-platform frameworks will end up supporting the least common denominator set of features. But I found with external open source libraries, the community is catching up very fast. For example, you want the awesome translucency macOS apps have for your Qt app? Here you go[4]. Many such cases. It's also pretty straightforward to add your own custom OS-dependent code, especially so, if someone already open sourced his approach. I recently wanted to move the traffic light buttons on macOS for my app, but couldn't figure the Objective-C code for that. I ended up looking at either Tauri or Electron source code and found my answer.

I like rust but want to use Qt.
I just used qmetaobject-rs and my experience with Qt/QML. There's the QML book from Qt if you're just starting, which is pretty nice https://www.qt.io/product/qt6/qml-book

Made my first app in Rust! A notification daemon for Linux :)
qmetaobject is probably the most mature Qt Rust binding at the moment. It uses the cpp crate to embed C++ inline in Rust to create its bindings. There are some people using it and it does get some maintenance, but it's not under active development since the original author is now working on Slint.

Using KConfig with Rust
The bindings currently use the git version of qttypes since I had to merge some upstream changes that are needed for these bindings. So they are not ready for prime time just yet.

CXX-Qt: safe Rust bindings for Qt
There are a bunch of bindings with different language, but even the ones that are officially supported like PySide will still be second class citizen and awkward to use.
Automated binding generation will never give you idiomatic API in whatever language. And if you want an idiomatic library that wraps Qt, it's going to take a huge amount of work.
Which is why I think restricting to QML makes sense because that's a much smaller API surface. That was the ambition behind my previous crate that exposes QML to rust: https://github.com/woboq/qmetaobject-rs/
But now I've moved on to another GUI project: Slint https://github.com/slint-ui/slint

Why does Rust code compile into a single executable binary?

Using KI18n with Rust and Qml
This is probably the portion that I found the most difficult. The README of qmetaobject-rs gives us a basic idea of the build script, so I started with that. Here is my starting script
