  • fd

    A simple, fast and user-friendly alternative to 'find'

    Project mention: Level Up Your Dev Workflow: Conquer Web Development with a Blazing Fast Neovim Setup (Part 1) | dev.to | 2024-03-16

    ripgrep: A super-fast file searcher. You can install it using your system's package manager (e.g., brew install ripgrep on macOS). fd: Another blazing-fast file finder. Installation instructions can be found here: https://github.com/sharkdp/fd

  • Servo

    Servo, the embeddable, independent, memory-safe, modular, parallel web rendering engine

    Project mention: CSS for Printing to Paper | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-03

    > Is there any easy to use/hack HTML layouting engine where I could experiment with custom CSS attributes and bridge that gap? Would anything from Servo be suitable?

    Servo could be used for this. You'd want to add support for parsing the CSS properties themselves to the style crate in https://github.com/servo/stylo and then the layout implementation to the layout2020 crate in https://github.com/servo/servo. You do effectively get a whole browser though.

    I'm currently working on building a lighter weight / hackable layout engine based on a combination of https://github.com/servo/stylo (for css parsing and selector resolution), https://github.com/DioxusLabs/taffy (for box-level layout) and https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-text (for flow/inline layout). I expect to have something decent in around 6 months

    Neither of these setups currently have any support for pagination though.

  • exa

    A modern replacement for ‘ls’.

    Project mention: A ‘Software Developer’ Knows Enough to Deliver Working Software Alone and in Teams | /r/programming | 2023-12-06

    It depends on the scale of the project but man, if you can't build a simple CRUD app in your preferred stack and deploy it in some fashion (even if it's just a binary posted on some website, kinda like Exa) then that's just disappointing...

  • xi-editor

    A modern editor with a backend written in Rust.

    Project mention: Zed is now open source | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-24

    Was confused until I realised I'd confused Zed, with Xi[1] which is also rust based, and which incidentally has a frontend called "Xim"..

    Also there's a wiki-editor (like Tomboy[2]) called "Zim"[3].

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • coreutils

    Cross-platform Rust rewrite of the GNU coreutils

    Project mention: Cross-platform Rust rewrite of the GNU coreutils | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-02

    Not that it should represent the rubicon of when to/not to rewrite code, but when you do, you do trade one set of bugs for a new set of bugs: https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/issues

  • wgpu

    Cross-platform, safe, pure-rust graphics api.

    Project mention: Warp Terminal is now available for Linux | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-22
  • xsv

    A fast CSV command line toolkit written in Rust.

    Project mention: Qsv: Efficient CSV CLI Toolkit | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-22
  • tokei

    Count your code, quickly.

    Project mention: The Linux Kernel Prepares for Rust 1.77 Upgrade | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-18

    So If we would only count code and not comments, it is only 9489 LoC Rust. Which would be about 0.03% and if we take all lines and not only LoC it would be around 0.05%

  • Bandwhich

    Terminal bandwidth utilization tool

    Project mention: Bandwhich: A CLI utility for displaying current network utilizations | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-09-20
  • citybound

    A work-in-progress, open-source, multi-player city simulation game.

  • skim

    Fuzzy Finder in rust!

    Project mention: Bash Menu | /r/archlinux | 2023-05-25

    I really like using something like fuzzy search for menus like these. https://github.com/Cloudef/bemenu is pretty cool in that it works both in a terminal, X11 and on Wayland, so if you want to do something graphical later you can easily migrate. There's also fzf and skim, which work similarly but are only for the terminal.

  • watchexec

    Executes commands in response to file modifications

    Project mention: Watchexec ignore directory? | /r/linuxquestions | 2023-04-26

    Hi, I am using Watchexec (https://github.com/watchexec/watchexec/releases) to monitor folder changes, but I want to exclude some folders. What parameter should I use to perform the route exclusions?

  • fselect

    Find files with SQL-like queries

  • svgbobrus

    Convert your ascii diagram scribbles into happy little SVG

    Project mention: Pikchr: A PIC-like markup language for diagrams in technical documentation | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-06

    I recently had to draw some diagrams for documenting something. After looking at various Markdown-friendly options I landed on svgbob[1]. I believe it's a superior solution to these kinds of graph drawing tools for Markdown for one specific reason: the code is still readable. When I go to look at a Markdown file I don't always open the output. I will commonly open up a README file in Vim or just cat it to the terminal. In this case diagrams like those in this post is next to useless. I'm not going to read through some complex drawing definitions and try to visualise the results. With svgbob (or Typograms[2] or any of the other similar options) you can still read the Markdown text document and see the diagrams which is great!

    Of course this comes with a tradeoff, drawing the diagrams can be a bit of a pain. But I believe this can be solved by a good Markdown editor or editor plugin. Alternatively a spec like this could be converted into an svgbob-compatible diagram.
