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.

Roadmap to master zig
Master syntax - language possibilities, so that you can read code. Ziglings (or github) does great job teaching it!
-
Problems of C, and how Zig addresses them
I am interested to learn, how Traits in Rust and Interfaces in Go behave differently from this concept.

What's the reasoning behind the iguana mascot, and why is Zig specifically named so?
Is Zero the space lizard (dinosaur?) with the hammer in the picture in Ziglings' readme? (I like this guy)

List of wanted examples?
Yesterday someone introduced me to ziglings, do you mean that? https://github.com/ratfactor/ziglings/tree/main/exercises
- Looking for feedback on new Ziglings Exercise 101 (multi-object 'for' loops and data-oriented design)

Curious noob peeks memory and wants to understand it 😅
Hi! I am learning zig through the Ziglings repo. I was messing around exercise 54 where it shows how you can create a pointer to many items instead of a slice:

What “sucks” about Zig?
Also, https://github.com/ratfactor/ziglings if you missed it.

Ask reddit: What learning resources have taught you the most about zig?
Along with ziglearn, I also found ziglings useful.

Rust newcomers are 70x less likely to create vulnerabilities than C++ newcomers [pdf]
You should try again. I think that code is verbose because of the borrowing and because you're trying to do a one-liner. I use the nrf-hal library with the nrf52840, and the code reads pretty nicely. Here's an example:

Any good examples of using embedded Rust with an existing embedded C codebase?
Reading nrf-hal source, unfortunately new does re-configure the UARTE, and there is not a new_unchecked. The solution I can think of is to duplicate the write code with nrf52833_hal::pac::UARTE0. The Uarte type does not contain any metadata, it exists purely to guard the init of UARTE.

First steps with Embedded Rust: Selecting a board
Really good. Check out the examples in the nrf-hal repo. Also, if you don't mind forking out for some extra components the Knurling sessions by Ferrous Systems are ace.

I rewrote my Rust keyboard firmware in Zig: consistency, mastery, and fun
The embedded HAL crates do this with extensive use of macros, for example: https://github.com/nrf-rs/nrf-hal/blob/aae17943efc24baffe30b...
This solution makes sense given the constraints of Rust, but there's quite a cost in terms of compiler time and cognitive overhead to understand what is going on.
(Aside: I didn't use the HAL in my Rust firmware, that's a higher layer of abstraction; I only used the PAC crates.)
