3. Prawn

   2 11 4,732 5.3 Ruby

   Fast, Nimble PDF Writer for Ruby

   

   On this note, Ruby’s Prawn is great at the writing half and I miss it in pretty much every other language.

4. copperspice

   3 16 1,173 9.5 C++

   Set of cross platform C++ libraries (Core, Gui, Network, Multimedia, SQL, Vulkan, etc)

   

5. cloudscraper

   4 19 4,688 1.5 Python

   A Python module to bypass Cloudflare's anti-bot page.

   

   The only thing I'm missing is cloudscraper. In Python, it is a small wrapper on top of requests, so I guess in Rust it can be a wrapper on top of hyper::Client or reqwest::Client.

6. okapi

   5 6 682 5.4 Rust

   OpenAPI (AKA Swagger) document generation for Rust projects

   

7. datafusion

   6 62 7,205 10.0 Rust

10. tera

    8 20 3,826 3.9 Rust

    A template engine for Rust based on Jinja2/Django

    

    Something like https://tera.netlify.app/?

11. aws-sdk-rust

    9 35 3,147 9.8 Rust

    AWS SDK for the Rust Programming Language

    

    In alpha, but officially supported! https://github.com/awslabs/aws-sdk-rust

12. SaintCoinach

    10 9 339 5.8 C#

    A .NET library written in C# for extracting game assets and reading game assets from Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn. (by xivapi)

    

    Kind of an extremely narrow thing but, I miss SaintCoinach, a data mining library for Final Fantasy XIV.

13. Lumina

    11 1 107 8.2 C#

    A simple, performant and extensible framework for interacting with FFXIV game data (by NotAdam)

    

    Been wanting to make a rust port of either that, or Lumina but never really had the time to...

14. not-yet-awesome-embedded-rust

    12 5 131 3.6

    A collection of items that are not yet awesome in Embedded Rust

    

    Not Yet Awesome Embedded Rust

15. fantoccini

    13 5 1,815 7.0 Rust

    A high-level API for programmatically interacting with web pages through WebDriver.

    

    https://github.com/jonhoo/fantoccini is inspired by Puppeteer.

16. thirtyfour

    14 5 989 8.1 Rust

    Discontinued Selenium WebDriver client for Rust, for automated testing of websites

    There's https://github.com/stevepryde/thirtyfour for Selenium, and https://github.com/atroche/rust-headless-chrome for Chromium.

17. rust-headless-chrome

    15 8 2,584 7.0 Rust

    A high-level API to control headless Chrome or Chromium over the DevTools Protocol. It is the Rust equivalent of Puppeteer, a Node library maintained by the Chrome DevTools team.

    

    There's https://github.com/stevepryde/thirtyfour for Selenium, and https://github.com/atroche/rust-headless-chrome for Chromium.

18. polars

    16 150 33,559 10.0 Rust

    Dataframes powered by a multithreaded, vectorized query engine, written in Rust

    

    for dataframes: https://github.com/pola-rs/polars

19. Ink

    17 72 28,641 6.9 TypeScript

    🌈 React for interactive command-line apps

    

    Ink: Terminal Painting

20. askama

    18 28 3,649 8.3 Rust

    Discontinued The original askama repo, please go to https://github.com/askama-rs/askama

    

    Maybe https://github.com/djc/askama might be of interest as well

21. sealproxy

    19 1 2 0.0 Rust

    An authentication proxy

    

22. loadtxt

    20 2 5 0.0 Rust

    ~60-300x faster than numpy.loadtxt

    

    It really depends on what part of Numpy you're using. You can easily leave Numpy's text parsing in the dust. And if you're doing element-wise operations on arrays, you can easily see 2-3x improvement with just numba.

23. typed-html

    21 2 1,871 0.0 Rust

    Type checked JSX for Rust

    

    this project needs someone to drive it: https://github.com/bodil/typed-html

24. Slint

    22 60 3,094 9.9 Rust, C++, JavaScript

    Discontinued Slint is a toolkit to efficiently develop fluid graphical user interfaces for any display: embedded devices and desktop applications. We support multiple programming languages, such as Rust, C++ or JavaScript. [Moved to: https://github.com/slint-ui/slint]

    

25. tiny-skia

    23 17 1,297 7.1 Rust

    A tiny Skia subset ported to Rust

    

    https://github.com/RazrFalcon/tiny-skia is the fastest 2D drawing library around, second only to Skia itself. It's written in safe Rust, and the API is quite nice.

26. PyLaTeX

    24 1 2,321 6.8 Python

    A Python library for creating LaTeX files

    

    I implemented this for Python1, but it shouldn't be too hard to create a similar library for Rust.

27. latex-rs

    25 1 54 0.0 Rust

    An ergonomic library for programatically generating LaTeX documents and reports.

    

    If yo do implement it this way, be sure to escape any untrusted input. Otherwise you're opening yourself up to arbitrary command execution. For more details, check out this issue I created on a similar rust project (which seems dead): https://github.com/Michael-F-Bryan/latex-rs/issues/13

28. vouch-proxy

    26 50 3,072 4.7 Go

    an SSO and OAuth / OIDC login solution for Nginx using the auth_request module

    

    I'm also hunting about this (https://github.com/vouch/vouch-proxy is something close?) and maybe we could talk about join forces.

29. sea-query

    27 24 1,387 9.1 Rust

    🔱 A dynamic SQL query builder for MySQL, Postgres and SQLite

    

    Something like https://github.com/SeaQL/sea-query ?

30. ceres-solver

    28 9 4,092 8.3 C++

    A large scale non-linear optimization library

    

    I've not yet seen anything comparable to http://ceres-solver.org/
