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.

GPUI 2 is now in production – Zed
Zed is great, have been using it to do the Rustlings exercises and learn Rust:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings
If you've been looking for an excuse to learn Rust, check it out.
- I'm looking for practical Rust exercises

Learning Zig
Rust also has something similar which is where I believe Zig drew inspiration from as well: https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings

Hi I’m a total newbie to programming but wants to learn rust as a first language.
Consider solving puzzles and exercises from rustlings and / or try the Rust track at exercism which I found very valuable.

Reached a new benchmark today, completed 1000 problems

Managed to land a junior role need help!
Also maybe try rustling for exercises. These are practical, and give you examples to read through. Quite nice IMO.

Ask HN: What is the best way to build a desktop app in Windows in 2023?
It's a shame that, unlike with Win32, using WinUI places pretty harsh restrictions on which programming languages and environments you can use. Only C# and C++ are supported, the latter only with Microsoft compilers. For everything else, including Rust[1], Python and MinGW C/C++, there is no answer for OP's question, and the effect of this on the visual consistency of the Windows desktop is obvious - there is none. Every third-party app uses a different toolkit with a different look and feel, because the library providing the standard look and feel simply isn't available to the majority of developers.
-
What in Rust is equivalent to C++ DLLs (shared libraries), or what do I need to do to support extensions in my app?
On Windows you'd need to call the LoadLibraryEx method. You'd also need a crate to call Win32 functions, I suggest windows-rs.

Microsoft is to enable Rust use for Windows 11 kernel
windows-rs, Microsoft's crate wrapping the Windows API, already includes the WDK, the special sdk for creating kernel code.
> already has the WDK for a while
I would interpret "for a while" as more than ~7 weeks.
Version 0.46 added initial WDK support: https://github.com/microsoft/windows-rs/releases/tag/0.46.0

Which GUI toolkit for Rust today.. few questions...
On windows, I'll probably use https://github.com/gabdube/native-windows-gui or https://github.com/microsoft/windows-rs both of them seem pretty solid.

Kernel Headers for Windows could soon make it into windows-rs
Microsoft offers official "bindings" to Win32 APIs through win32metadata. However, until recently, it did not include metadata for kernel-level functions or WDK. In early 2021, an issue was raised through windows-rs regarding this limitation, but progress was slow until now. Microsoft has finally released official metadata for WDK, which can be found on the wdkmetadata repository. The latest comment on the issue thread can be found here:

Is the Rust ecosystem capable of making a cross-platform mobile game with p2p Bluetooth yet?
Is something wrong with https://github.com/deviceplug/btleplug or you haven't found it? You could also use bindings to platform libraries like https://github.com/microsoft/windows-rs and https://github.com/rust-mobile/ndk if btleplug doesn't have something fundamental to you.

Best windows stubs
Regarding the issue of HINSTANCE and SOCKET, it's been discussed on https://github.com/microsoft/windows-rs/issues/1643 but there haven't seem to be a conclusion. Also, I believe windows-sys intentionally does not provide any type safety -- the higher level windows crate does wrap the handles into something that you cannot do arithmetic on.
