Bzip2 crate switches from C to 100% rust

1. coreutils

   1 129 20,830 10.0 Rust

   Cross-platform Rust rewrite of the GNU coreutils

   

   I think that is the goal of uutils.

2. InfluxDB

   www.influxdata.com featured

   InfluxDB – Built for High-Performance Time Series Workloads. InfluxDB 3 OSS is now GA. Transform, enrich, and act on time series data directly in the database. Automate critical tasks and eliminate the need to move data externally. Download now.

   

3. c2rust

   2 52 4,391 9.1 Rust

   Migrate C code to Rust

   

   If you're going to use tools to transpile, don't use something that hallucinates. You want it to be precise.

   https://github.com/immunant/c2rust reportedly works pretty well. Blog post from a few years ago of them transpiling quake3 to rust: https://immunant.com/blog/2020/01/quake3/. The rust produced ain't pretty, but you can then start cleaning it up and making it more "rusty"

4. zig

   3 902 39,860 10.0 Zig

   General-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal, and reusable software.

   

   This list's Zig as an entry, despite the Zig project having very clear plans[0] for a 1.0 release. That's not 0ver, it's just the beta stage of semver.

5. sd

   4 38 6,365 3.5 Rust

   Intuitive find & replace CLI (sed alternative)

   

   There is sd, not a drop in replacement though.

6. ripgrep

   5 368 53,472 7.2 Rust

   ripgrep recursively searches directories for a regex pattern while respecting your gitignore

   

   I didn't call ripgrep a replacement. Other people do. Because it does actually replace their usage of grep.

7. libbzip2-rs

   6 1 57 9.8 Rust

   An implementation of bzip2 in pure rust

   

   I briefly looked a this and there's already cargo-c configuration, which is good, but it's currently namespaced differently, so it won't get automatically detected by C programs as `libbz2`:

   https://github.com/trifectatechfoundation/libbzip2-rs/blob/8...

   I'm not familiar enough with the symbols of bzip2 to say anything about ABI compatibility.

   I have a toy project to explore things like that, but it's difficult to set aside the amount of time needed to maintain an implementation of the GNU operating system. I would welcome pull requests though:

   7 1 4 8.1 Shell

   Work in progress, experimental userspace operating system
