  • typst

    A new markup-based typesetting system that is powerful and easy to learn.

  • I find re-inventions like https://github.com/typst/typst more promising, although I'm not sure if this particular one aligns with my expectations in a typesetting system.

  • inlyne

    Introducing Inlyne, a GPU powered yet browserless tool to help you quickly view markdown files in the blink of an eye.

  • Checkout github.com/trimental/inlyne if you're interested in this project or try it yourself with cargo install inlyne. Happy to answer any questions.

  • 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.

  • tectonic

    A modernized, complete, self-contained TeX/LaTeX engine, powered by XeTeX and TeXLive.

  • There's https://github.com/tectonic-typesetting/tectonic but I think the issue with that idea is that sure, you can re-implement TeX (it's sufficiently simple) in Rust and then run LaTeX packages on top of it, but then you're back to LaTeX and all its weirdness so you haven't really gained anything compared to LaTeX itself.

  • cosmic-text

    Pure Rust multi-line text handling

  • https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-text that does text layout and rasterisation with full support for things like CJK scripts and emojis)

  • taffy

    A high performance rust-powered UI layout library

  • https://github.com/DioxusLabs/taffy (disclaimer: I work on this crate) which does CSS layout given CSS styles. This would probably be much more useful once we merge support for display: block (https://github.com/DioxusLabs/taffy/pull/474), and if in the future we support display: table. Taffy doesn't handle text layout but is designed to integrate nicely with external layout systems.

  • blitz

    High performance HTML and CSS renderer powered by WGPU (by DioxusLabs)

  • You may also be interested in https://github.com/DioxusLabs/blitz which aims to be a full HTML+CSS renderer on top of wgpu (but is currently not nearly as complete as inlyne).

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
