  Empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.

  

Doesn't Rust have variadics already for extern C fns? https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/57760

  172 14,407 10.0 Rust

  A fast and secure runtime for WebAssembly

  

This posed an interesting obstacle when I wanted to add a JIT to a scripting language. The only way to manipulate standard-library objects from Cranelift is to write an extern "C" function which invokes a method on the object. If the method in question would normally be inlined, like VecDeque::len or Duration::checked_add, this approach carries significant performance overhead. If you want good performance, you're stuck reimplementing most of the standard library yourself.

• static-rc

  4 411 0.0 Rust

  Compile-time reference counting

It can... it's not too ergonomic though because you need to manually specify the size of the return array as it cannot be the result of an expression. (See static-rc for an example of usage)

  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.

  

• bevy

  572 32,060 9.9 Rust

  A refreshingly simple data-driven game engine built in Rust

  

I'm not sure if this is the same as what you're looking at, but Bevy has an ECS system that is basically unmatched in terms of ergonomics imo.
