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.

How hard would it be to port the Rust toolchain to a new non-POSIX OS written in Rust and get it to host its own development? What would that process entail?
Alternatively, there's another initiative called codegen_gcc which is about using GCC as a backend for the rustc compiler. It's (much) more advanced in Rust support, but I am not sure how easy it would be to use a modified libgccjit from there.

"Rust makes me never want to touch C again" -- Matthew Ahrens
In addition to what others have said about platform support, Rust is also on its way to gaining more platform support through rustc_codegen_gcc, the GCC codegen backend for rustc, as an alternative to the LLVM backend. That means many of the platforms GCC supports will suddenly become available with Rust.

Rust contributions for Linux 6.4 are finally merged upstream!
Yeah, rustc_codegen_gcc is a GCC backend for rustc, and its making a lot of good regular progress.

GCC 13 and the State of Gccrs
gcc-rs is one of two projects for bringing Rust to gcc. gcc-rs is the more ambitious of the two, with an entirely new frontend. There is also rustc_codegen_gcc (https://github.com/rust-lang/rustc_codegen_gcc) that keeps the rustc frontend, and only swaps out LLVM for GCC at the codegen stage.

rustc_codegen_gcc: Progress Report #22
Fixing unwinding in release mode is still ungoing. I could use some help here, so anyone with some understanding of unwinding, landing pads or GCC, please come on this issue to discuss this.
-
Any alternate Rust compilers?
Additionally, there is gcc codegen for rustc (https://github.com/rust-lang/rustc_codegen_gcc), which is not a compiler per se, but an alternative code generator, with more architectures supported and other nice things. It's also coming along, but there's still a lot of work to do there too. There's also Cranelift codegen (https://github.com/bjorn3/rustc_codegen_cranelift), which is designed to make debug builds faster, but this is not as exciting/useful as the other 2.

rustc_codegen_gcc: Progress Report #21
Good idea. I added the tag "help wanted" to the issue.
-
Challenges writing a compiler frontend targeting both LLVM and GCC?
Also, there are indeed ABI issues, e.g. for 128-bit integers and NaN.
-
A brave new world: building glibc with LLVM
I'm excited about both the backend & the frontend.
-
Rust front-end merged in GCC trunk
There is also a project for rustc to use GCC instead of LLVM for codegen.

ESP32 example project
The esp-template issue might be this one: https://github.com/esp-rs/rust/issues/158. Try with --release or updating to 1.68.0 with espup update. I'll take a look at the log as soon as I can, atm Im on the phone and is not that easy to scroll through :(
-
Are there any Rust forks out there?
Sure. Espressif maintains a fork which adds support for their microcontrollers.
-
Would it be possible to compile openssl-sys for esp32
I am trying to make a vaccine passport validation for my country using the ESP32 for my micro controller. I have gotten the std rust library to compile using (esp-rs)[https://github.com/esp-rs/rust], but the actual validation library that I use needs openssl which refuses to compile.
-
Are there situations where it's better to use C++?
Xtensa. They've got a fork of LLVM that supports it that they're working toward getting upstreamed. The community has a fork of rustc that uses it (and a quickstart crate) while we wait for it to get upstreamed.
- Rust-Xtensa: Rust for Xtensa Processors. Built in Targets for the ESP32/ESP8266
-
Multi-use kernel written in Rust
It only works if you have an Xtensa compiler which takes hours to compile, here: Rust Xtensa (if you don't have it). The network driver is just a function that sets the name of the driver so the Esp32 does something other that blinking.
- Could IOTA transaction be started solely from the IoT capable device (like esp32)?
