Who "owns" Rust ?

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/rust

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • rust

    Empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.

  • You can look at who own rust yourself: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust

  • PyO3

    Rust bindings for the Python interpreter

  • For QWidget, what I do is to write my backend in Rust, use PyO3 (see also Maturin) to expose it as an importable Python module, and then write your frontend in Python using MyPy and Ruff to get more static correctness.

  • 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.

  • gtk-rs

    Discontinued Rust bindings for GTK 3

  • For GTK, there's https://gtk-rs.org/

  • foundation.rust-lang.org

    website for Rust Foundation

  • The Rust foundation, which is a nonprofit general (delaware) corporation with bylaws, employees, a normal legal existence. It owns the trademarks and domain names, acts as a legal and administrative point of contact when one is needed, and has I think operational and funding responsibility for infrastructure (crates.io, CI, etc.) The foundation has members which are almost all corporate sponsors who donate money (and sometimes people) to further its mandate. There's a fairly broad set of companies involved here: Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Meta, Huawei, etc. etc.

  • Rustup

    The Rust toolchain installer

  • https://github.com/rust-lang/rustup/issues/341 and rust installation uses telemetry

  • cxx-qt

    Safe interop between Rust and Qt

  • This is no longer required in CXX-Qt as of this week (https://github.com/KDAB/cxx-qt/pull/428). Next release coming soon.
