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.

AvaloniaUI: Create Multi-Platform Apps with .NET
This source code:
https://github.com/servo/webrender/blob/master/wr_glyph_rast...
suggests to me that the glyph rasterization (which is the CPU-limiting factor for text rendering) in WebRender (which is the new FF 93+ GPU-accelerated rendering engine) is implemented in Rust and to be run on CPU.

Is RUST a good choice for building web browsers?
Both Servo and Fifefox make use of webrender, which is an awesome piece of tech and is well suited to render a web page. Some GUI projects attempted to use webrender directly as well, like Azul and moxie-native

Releasing Dioxus v0.1 - a new Rust GUI toolkit for Web, Desktop, Mobile, SSR, TUI that emphasizes developer experience
Hi, what do you think about using webrender instead of wry on desktop? That is, instead of a full featured browser, just the bare minimum to render the DOM.

Rust: Does the published crate match the upstream source?
This is in the context of rust.
> it adds a line to a `go.sum` while with a hash of the code at the version specified
Cargo.lock also contains a checksum
> You can distribute your code without a copy of the dependency
Also true in rust, and the default way of using rust.
> If the hashes are different, an error is thrown.
Also true in rust.
For an example of what this looks like: https://github.com/servo/webrender/blob/54b725be37f13b166946...
You haven't described anything different between go and rust in your comment since every feature you've pointed out applies equally to both.

Iced: A cross-platform GUI library for Rust, inspired by Elm
Yes! This is because web browsers use the platform text input stack
Browsers are a great example of cross-platform UI, because they sprinkle platform-native widgets throughout the canvas that they render. Which reminds me that people were trying to use webrender[1] to build native apps in Rust.

Browser be slow
What more can be done, besides site isolation and ASLR+DEP? Oh wait, Mozilla rewrote the damn renderer in a better language than C(++), that seems like a good way to prevent issues.

Lee's opinions on Umbraco + naming things
Why is this a problem? At face value, it isn't a problem. Taking a step back at a more global level, what does "uComponents" mean to the rest of the world? Many of the .NET developers who heavily use NuGet may have not even heard of Umbraco CMS, let alone a 3rd party plugin for it. What if people from the Uno Platform community are browsing NuGet for some kind of components extension library? You can see, this could get confusing outside the scope of the Umbraco community/ecosystem. On top of this, uComponents was developed against Umbraco v4, with its last release in 2016, now it's there to be lingering on the NuGet repository until the end of time, set in stone.

Dart 3.1 and a retrospective on functional style programming in Dart
Not a fan of XAML after trying to get into it, but there is Uno Platform. It wraps native widgets on mobile, just like React Native (which is good for accessibility), and uses C#. https://platform.uno/
My guess is that it's mainly focused on mobile. On Windows, it has no overhead (behaving like a normal WinUI 3 app), on macOS I think it uses Catalyst by default (which was developed by Apple to make more iOS apps available for Mac desktops) and on Linux it draws its own widgets that the devs try imitating the GTK style with.
On Android and iOS, it just uses the native widgets which I think is a better experience so you can see my reasons for guessing it's mobile-first. That may or may not be what you want.

Going from React to Vanilla JavaScript
> ...building UIs with the document/element api
When the whole premise is flawed, JSX or not, does it really matter if there is a better or worse way of misusing a technology not meant for UIs?
Leave HTML and JavaScript to Wikipedia and other hypertext document libraries.
Unfortunately, WASM is not there yet, but people are trying: https://platform.uno.
