What is a FOSS which is needed but doesn't exist yet/needs contributers?

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/rust

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Collect and Analyze Billions of Data Points in Real Time
  • Onboard AI - Learn any GitHub repo in 59 seconds
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • cargo-supply-chain

    Gather author, contributor and publisher data on crates in your dependency graph.

    Not super popular but not completely useless either: https://github.com/rust-secure-code/cargo-supply-chain

  • crates.io

    The Rust package registry

    Fixing https://github.com/rust-lang/crates.io/issues/2630 would be super useful.

  • InfluxDB

    Collect and Analyze Billions of Data Points in Real Time. Manage all types of time series data in a single, purpose-built database. Run at any scale in any environment in the cloud, on-premises, or at the edge.

  • not-yet-awesome-rust

    A curated list of Rust code and resources that do NOT exist yet, but would be beneficial to the Rust community.

    Maybe take a look at Not Yet Awesome Rust? (A list of libraries people want in Rust but which don't exist yet.)

  • forbidden

    An auth system/library for Rust applications

    And auth system? I start https://github.com/mamcx/forbidden but got sidetracked by $job, but will be happy to lend a hand if get a partner.

  • smartcore

    A comprehensive library for machine learning and numerical computing. The library provides a set of tools for linear algebra, numerical computing, optimization, and enables a generic, powerful yet still efficient approach to machine learning.

    Check out smartcore and linfa. At work I was badly in need of an NMF function similar to MATLAB's one these days but not enough time to write one myself. If you're good at math and machine learning, this sounds like a task you could try tackling.

  • linfa

    A Rust machine learning framework.

  • Parallel

    I would love a rust implemention of gnu parallel (with better license). There was https://github.com/mmstick/parallel , but the author stopped development.

  • Onboard AI

    Learn any GitHub repo in 59 seconds. Onboard AI learns any GitHub repo in minutes and lets you chat with it to locate functionality, understand different parts, and generate new code. Use it for free at www.getonboard.dev.

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
