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.

Struggling with the OpenSSL Crate
Beyond that, various things like the ScyllaDB driver are using OpenSSL because WebPKI doesn't support validating connections to IP addresses (as opposed to DNS names) and RusTLS currently delegates to WebPKI.

What Is Rust's Hole Purpose?
There's a JIT framework in Rust: https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime
There's a library for doing full X.509 certificate parsing and verification: https://briansmith.org/rustdoc/webpki/
There's definitely some attempts at doing pure-Rust SSL, but I suspect a lot of them are also doing some sketchy things with crypto that shouldn't be trusted (getting constant-time stuff implemented properly is really challenging, and probably requires large amounts of assembly to guarantee correctness).
-
I think a major issue with the rust ecosystem is that it's full of unexpected design decisions
An issue was raised with webpki to support the IP addressees 5 years ago, and yet it's still not there. What do people use to overcome the fact that rustls can't do IP-based client connections because of it? My guess would be, they are switching to native-tls or openssl-tls.
-
Why is SSL such a pain?
Yes, rustls currently doesn't support certificates without hostnames (only an IP); this is actually an issue with the webpki crate, and work to solve it is ongoing (will hopefully land in a release in a few months or so).

Preparing Rustls for Wider Adoption
> Bundling this set with Firefox
I love that they did that; it was actually my idea (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=657228). I believe the list is pretty large and changes frequently and so they download it dynamically.
> short cut to a "Yes"
Do they really do that? That's awesome if so. Then they don't even need to ship the roots.
> I specifically don't like [...] saying "unknown issuer"
https://github.com/briansmith/webpki/issues/221
> If std::fs::File::open() gives me Result with an io:Error that claims "File not found" but the underlying OS file open actually failed due to a permission error, you can see why that's a problem right? Even if this hypothetical OS doesn't expose any specific errors, "File not found" is misleading.
A more accurate analogy: You ask to open "example.txt" without supplying the path, and there is no "example.txt" in the current working directory. You will get "file not found."
Regardless, I agree we could have a better name than UnknownIssuer for this error.

GitHub - svenstaro/miniserve: ๐ For when you really just want to serve some files over HTTP right now!

crates.io now has more than 100,000 crates!
And yet C and C++ also have similar functionality. Even if the difference were measured in hundreds of milliseconds, I'd still want to trim down the set of supported formats in my projects and, guess what... the project I most have in mind is an image gallery version of miniserve where I want to statically link everything.

Looking for a way to host files.
Second this. Both Dufs or Miniserve are good lightweight options.

When using Wireguard to VPN into my home network, I cannot access local sites with their hostnames (despite the "dig" command" showing the correct addresses) but can access them fine when using the sites' IP addresses.
On a server machine I have Miniserve (a simple service to serve files from a folder over a website) running at 192.168.0.24:50090 or server.local.obfuscated.duckdns.org:50090.

Using Rust as my Backend
miniserve is an example of an app sort of like that (no SQL, but it'll do file downloads and uploads). I'm currently using it to work on something similar but for quickly throwing up image galleries.

Any Rust based forum software?
actix-web was the big name in "runs on stable Rust" for a long time and it's what I use, as well as what's used by things like miniserve, paired with Maud.
