The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

Any active project aiming to replicate python's batteries-included in rust?
There's none that I know of, aside from stdx which was last updated 4 years ago.

Is there any part of the Standard Library that really impresses you?
brson had a repository called https://github.com/brson/stdx and it's a pity it isn't maintained anymore: some of them are in disuse now (for example, instead of lazy_static prefer stdlib's Lazy, or better yet, you don't need them if you just want to initialize a mutex or something; also error-chain) and the list could use some maintenance

Nearly 100,000 NPM Users' Credentials Stolen in GitHub OAuth Breach
You suggested creating a super-library of vetted crates. It has been tried before, but it didn’t get any adoption. stdx - The missing batteries of Rust was never used much. Looking at it now, it recommends crates that have been superseded by others.

Security advisory for the regex crate (CVE-2022-24713) | Rust Blog
As an example of the above, if you're not aware of it already, you might find brson/stdx interesting.

Hey, i begin my journey into Rust !
Big libraries like Boost or the Python standard library tend to develop as a workaround for weak package management so, with Cargo, efforts to produce Boost-like compilations (Eg. stdx) withered on the vine for lack of sufficient interest.

First Impressions of Rust
It's been suggested and people even tried doing that of their own volition with projects like stdx, but they withered away for lack of interest.

Hey Rustaceans! Got an easy question? Ask here (50/2021)!
I second u/globulemix' attitude, searching on crates.io and then looking at Downloads and also git activity (might be misleading, as some projects are simply very stable). For a lot of tasks, you might wish to take a look at stdx

How does Rust Python ffi work?
I've never used pyo3, just cpython, but the latter at least let me do things like:

Announcing Rust 1.59.0
And don't forget https://github.com/dgrunwald/rust-cpython to complete the circle
-
Hey, i begin my journey into Rust !
For interoperating with Python, check out PyO3 or rust-cpython. (More generally, see Rust Interop and Are We Extending Yet?)
-
Should I learn Rust coming from Python?
You probably should learn Rust. Aside from the process of learning new and different languages making you a better programmer, rust-cpython, PyO3, or Interoptopus make it easy to expose Python APIs from your Rust code. (eg. So it's easy to compile the same codebase as both a Python module and a WebAssembly module.)
-
What do you NOT like about Rust?
Have you looked into abi_stable, flapigen, interoptopus, cbindgen, PyO3, or rust-cpython?
-
Strengths and applications of Rust
Personally, I'm not willing to compromise on my GUI look and feel, so I use PyQt or PySide to write my GUIs against the QWidget API (I'm a KDE user and Python is the only language with mature memory-safe bindings to Qt) and, if the project can be structured with a frontend-backend separation, I use rust-cpython or PyO3 to write a backend in Rust that the Python frontend can import. Sort of using Python/Rust as a QWidget analogue to the QML/C++ architecture promoted for Qt Quick. (Which I don't use because it's still too incomplete on Kubuntu 20.04 LTS.)
-
From Python to Rust, should I?
also, check out rust-cpython, PyO3, and maturin, among other things. They're really nice options for using Rust for its strengths and Python for its strengths within the same project.
-
How we built our Python Client that's mostly Rust
This section uses flapigen to expand the foreign_class macro into many cpython functions as an extension module, and cargo compiles it as a cdylib. If you want to see what that looks like, install cargo-expand and run cargo expand. You'll get a lot of generated rust code.

How do i go about building a vidoe conferencing app?
For Python specifically, In addition to using rust-cpython or PyO3, maturin makes it really comfortable to build, package, and publish Rust code into Python packages and, if your niche doesn't quite fit, there's setuptools-python which might do it.
-
Does rust have function works like eval?
hlua or rlua are what you want for Lua, rust-cpython or PyO3 for Python, rutie for Ruby, and possibly deno_core for JavaScript.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing stdx and rust-cpython you can also consider the following projects:
slotmap - Slotmap data structure for Rust
PyO3 - Rust bindings for the Python interpreter
safety-dance - Auditing crates for unsafe code which can be safely replaced
lxml - The lxml XML toolkit for Python
miri - An interpreter for Rust's mid-level intermediate representation
rustpy - Rust + Python = ????
py-spy - Sampling profiler for Python programs
Rustup - The Rust toolchain installer
go - The Go programming language
crate-deps
rfcs - RFCs for changes to Rust
