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.

Conditioonal Compilation across Crates?
However, it seems that C is not "notified" whether --cfg thing is set, only the main crate being built is. Regardless of this flag, the dummy macro is always chosen. Am I doing something wrong? It should work; the Creusot project is doing something similar.

Kani 0.29.0 has been released!
I believe https://github.com/xldenis/creusot is more similar in that it also uses proofs to prove rust code correct.
-
Prop v0.42 released! Don't panic! The answer is... support for dependent types :)
Wow that sounds really cool! I'm not an expert but does that mean that one day you could implement dependend types or refinement types in Rust as a crate ? I currently only know of tools like: Flux Creusot Kani Prusti

Linus Torvalds: Rust will go into Linux 6.1
Easy reasoning does not end on memory safety. For example, deductive verification of Rust code is possible exactly because there's no reference aliasing in safe Rust

A personal list of Rust grievances
> No support for using something like separation logic within Rust itself to verify that unsafe code upholds the invariants that the safe language expects.
I think this is something we might see in the future. There are a lot of formal methods people who are interested in rust. Creusot in particular is pretty close to doing this - at least for simpler invariants

Whiley, a language with statically checked pre and post conditions, releases its 0.6.1 version and portions implemented in Rust
Seems similar in principle to cruesot except as another language instead of as a layer on-top of rust.

What it feels like when Rust saves your bacon
You often encounter this entire thread of rhetoric when someone wants to put a diversion into the central argument, yeah but it doesn't ____.
But Rust does do that, match exhaustiveness, forcing the handling of errors and the type system enables things like CreuSAT [1] using creusot [2]

> Creusot works by translating Rust code to WhyML, the verification and specification language of Why3. Users can then leverage the full power of Why3 to (semi)-automatically discharge the verification conditions!
Units of Measure, https://github.com/iliekturtles/uom
The base properties of the language enable things that can never be done in C++.

What Is Rust's Unsafe?
> I’ve been working on a tool: https://github.com/xldenis/creusot to put this into practice
Note that there are other tools trying to deal with formal statements about Rust code. AIUI, Rust developers are working on forming a proper working group for pursuing these issues. We might get a RFC-standardized way of expressing formal/logical conditions about Rust code, which would be a meaningful first step towards supporting proof-carrying code within Rust.

AdaCore and Ferrous Systems Joining Forces to Support Rust
This is exciting! I've met with people from AdaCore and Ferrous systems (individually) several times and they're all serious, competent and motivated.
I'm curious what kinds of software they want to (eventually) verify, my PhD thesis is developing a verification tool for Rust (https://github.com/xldenis/creusot) and I'm always on the look out for case studies to push me forward.
The road to formally verified Rust is still long but in my unbiased opinion looking quite bright, especially compared to other languages like C.

Rust Tests Itself (Kind of!)
There are two testing techniques you didn't mention: Snapshot tests (which are greatly simplified using the insta crate and mutation testing (which can be done on nightly with my mutagen crate.

What's everyone working on this week (6/2022)?
How does this compare to mutagen?

Hey Rustaceans! Got an easy question? Ask here (52/2021)!
Do you mean as part of build.rs? Yes, that's certainly doable, and has been done in the past. You can use env!("OUT_DIR") for that. Examples you may want to refer to include my mutagen crate and criterion.

Uncovered Intermediate Topics
Would be great if this could include mutation testing.

Question for experienced Rustaceans
I wrote a good number of macros though, both macro_rules! and various proc_macros. The latest iteration of overflower has both, for example. mutagen is a mutation testing tool built as a proc macro, and it's helper library has a bunch of macros, too. compact_arena uses macros to tie unique lifetime tags to arenas.

Make Your Tests Bulletproof With Mutation Testing
Also there are far more mutation testing frameworks. I maintain the rust-based mutagen one. There are also LLVM-based ones (etc. mull) that can cover multiple languages (but may yield mutations not expressible in your preferred one).

Mutable Arguments Considered Harmful | micouy.github.io
Cargo (and Rust) makes it so easy to write test cases that you should really use it to find these kinds of bugs. And there are other good test crates available: mutagen, quickcheck, etc.

Project Ideas
I had a student completely reachitecture my mutagen tool, and saw some working on various clippy contributions.
What are some alternatives?
misra-rust - An investigation into what adhering to each MISRA-C rule looks like in Rust. The intention is to decipher how much we "get for free" from the Rust compiler.
cargo-mutants - :zombie: Inject bugs and see if your tests catch them!
l4v - seL4 specification and proofs
ClippyCloud - Easy way to upload and share files quickly.
Daikon - Dynamic detection of likely invariants
cargo-fuzz - Command line helpers for fuzzing
agda-stdlib - The Agda standard library
tokio - A runtime for writing reliable asynchronous applications with Rust. Provides I/O, networking, scheduling, timers, ...
hacspec - Please see https://github.com/hacspec/hax
rust - Empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.
CreuSAT - CreuSAT - A formally verified SAT solver written in Rust and verified with Creusot.
alacritty - A cross-platform, OpenGL terminal emulator.
