  • tinyvec

    Just, really the littlest Vec you could need. So smol.

  • https://github.com/Lokathor/tinyvec will definitely benefit, although not as much as something currently relying on typenum.

  • heapless

    Heapless, `static` friendly data structures

  • It's happening

  • serde

    Serialization framework for Rust

  • I am hoping it can enable serde to support arbitrary length array. However, there seems to be some backward compatibility issues blocking the change. https://github.com/serde-rs/serde/pull/1860

  • 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.
