  • RedReader

    An unofficial open source Android app for Reddit.

  • Some of you might know me better as the developer of the open-source Reddit app RedReader, but I've just released my first Rust library, Speedy2D!

  • Speedy2D

    Rust library for hardware accelerated drawing of 2D shapes, images, and text, with an easy to use API.

  • 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.

  • image

    Encoding and decoding images in Rust (by image-rs)

  • Thank you! Currently there's no support for loading images from files, however it's possible to use an external library (e.g. image) to read the image, and then pass the pixel data to Graphics2D::create_image_from_raw_pixels().

  • allsorts

    Font parser, shaping engine, and subsetter implemented in Rust

  • It's something I'd like to improve on in future -- are there any pure-Rust libraries you'd recommend for shaping? Allsorts looks quite promising.

  • rustybuzz

    A complete harfbuzz's shaping algorithm port to Rust

  • Yeah Allsorts looks interesting, and rustybuzz is another option. I haven’t tried either yet, though.

  • femtovg

    Antialiased 2D vector drawing library written in Rust

  • You guys should check out femtovg.

  • ggez

    Rust library to create a Good Game Easily

  • How does this compare to https://github.com/ggez/ggez ? Do you also want to add features which are commonly needed in game development or do have a different goal for this project?

  • 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.
