  • crates.io

    The Rust package registry

  • Today, crates.io has reached 100,000 crates. It's not in the ballpark of npm or Maven yet, and not all crates on crates.io are useful or production ready, but it's still a big milestone indicating Rust's popularity and maturity.

  • squatternaut

    A snapshot of name squatting on crates.io

  • At least 12,100 of those are just squatted crate names. See https://github.com/dtolnay/squatternaut. My estimate is 20,000+ with a slightly looser definition.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • miniserve

    🌟 For when you really just want to serve some files over HTTP right now!

  • 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.

  • cargo-sweep

    A cargo subcommand for cleaning up unused build files generated by Cargo
