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.

Rust Learning Note: Exception Handling
We can utilize third-party libraries to simplify the code above. For example thiserror (https://github.com/dtolnay/thiserror) provides convenien derive macro for Error trait:
- I can't get my mind around Result, Option, or basically how control flow works in most Rust programs

Ideas for crafting CLI in Rust
thiserror crate makes it easy to do so using macros on CliError enum.

I love building a startup in Rust. I wouldn't pick it again.
Depending on your use case, thiserror and/or anyhow.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (52/2022)!
What is the benefit of splitting a proc-macro crate into (usually) two crates, proc_macro_crate and proc_macro_crate_impl? Why not just have one crate? Does it offer any benefits to to overall compilation times? An example of this can be seen in the thiserror crate where there's a thiserror and thiserror_impl crate.

You might want to use thiserror to generate implementation for Error and Display.

Generics can make your Go code slower
I dont think you realize how ridiculous this comment is. Youre comparing 10 lines of Go, with 200 of Rust:

Is this a good way of handling errors in Rust?
There are crates out there that help you reduce this boiler plate. thiserror is good for creating custom errors and color-eyre or anyhow are good for dynamic errors.

We have getrandom at home
Making compatibility promises for distributions means they cannot take advantage of potential advancements in the field.

Blog Post: On Random Numbers
Defining an error type that is meaningful, portable, and compatible with no-std isn't straightforward. If the std lib's getrandom requires std, then just like that, rand and many other crates won't use it anyway. Using io::Result seems to me to face this challenge.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (52/2022)!
Some wasm targets can’t generate random numbers at all but in the case of the book because you are using wasm in a browser you can use JS to generate random numbers. I believe there’s a way to get the rand crate to use JS as the backend for generating rand but its a bit more convoluted than the easy one-liner that the book suggests.

[Media] Nebulabrot rendered with Rust — Explanations in the comments
This uses rand and xcomplex to handle the mathematics, png to write image files, and dialoguer and indicatif for some pretty prompts and progress bars.

Do you ever use unsafe { .. } when not implementing custom data structures or interacting with external C code?
You can often achieve this without any unsafe by putting an assert!() on the length before the hot loop. For example, I got rid of some unsafe in rand that way.

Original source of `(seed * 9301 and 49297) % 233280` random algorithm?
This is a widely used method to map random integers to floating point numbers, but it has the disadvantage of wasting 1 bit of float mantissa precision.
On modern CPUs, its computational advantage over full-precision mapping methods, such as multiplication by a float, is not always clear [1].

Any plans for built-in support of Vec2/Vec3/Vec4 in Rust?
In fact, there are a lot of crates in Rust where in other programming languages, it would be included in the standard library. Examples are regex, random number generators, additional iterator methods, macros for other collections, num traits, loggers, HTTP libraries, error handling, async runtimes, serialization and deserialization, date and time, and many more.
What are some alternatives?
anyhow - Flexible concrete Error type built on std::error::Error
fastrand - A simple and fast random number generator
color-eyre - Custom hooks for colorful human oriented error reports via panics and the eyre crate
fast-float-rust - Super-fast float parser in Rust (now part of Rust core)
displaydoc - A derive macro for implementing the display Trait via a doc comment and string interpolation
winapi-rs - Rust bindings to Windows API
tracing - Application level tracing for Rust.
yew - Rust / Wasm framework for creating reliable and efficient web applications
rust - Rust for the xtensa architecture. Built in targets for the ESP32 and ESP8266
cargo-fuzz - Command line helpers for fuzzing
