Looking for some small rust projects with an elegant code base that I can study.

1. ripgrep

   1 365 51,855 7.6 Rust

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

   

   https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep if you're not afraid to delve deep a bit

2. InfluxDB

   influxdata.com featured

   InfluxDB high-performance time series database. Collect, organize, and act on massive volumes of high-resolution data to power real-time intelligent systems.

   

3. command-line-rust

   2 38 1,725 6.2 Rust

   Code for Command-Line Rust (O'Reilly, 2024, ISBN 9781098109417)

   

4. ncspot

   3 51 5,414 8.8 Rust

   Cross-platform ncurses Spotify client written in Rust, inspired by ncmpc and the likes.

   

   Ncspot. A terminal Spotify client. Small, simple, well organized, async, perfect for learning. https://github.com/hrkfdn/ncspot

5. code

   4 3 1,961 0.0 Rust

   Source code for the book Rust in Action (by rust-in-action)

   

6. json

   5 43 5,159 9.0 Rust

   Strongly typed JSON library for Rust (by serde-rs)

   

   I think serde-json is quite nice. It's easy to follow, uses traits for ideomatic polymorphism, and is just nice in general.

7. chess-tactics-cli

   6 1 40 3.2 Rust

   A tactics trainer for the command line

   

8. pipe-rename

   7 9 403 4.2 Rust

   Rename your files using your favorite text editor

   

9. CodeRabbit

   coderabbit.ai featured

   CodeRabbit: AI Code Reviews for Developers. Revolutionize your code reviews with AI. CodeRabbit offers PR summaries, code walkthroughs, 1-click suggestions, and AST-based analysis. Boost productivity and code quality across all major languages with each PR.

   

10. bessie

    8 2 23 5.1 Rust

    an authenticated, chunked cipher based on BLAKE3

    

    This is my code, so reader beware, but here's an example of a toy command line program which uses clap v3 with subcommand support, anyhow-based error handling, and a little bit of abstraction with std::io traits: https://github.com/oconnor663/bessie/blob/main/rust/bin/src/main.rs

11. stitch

    9 1 5 2.3 C++

    Communication between threads in a reactive, real-time safe manner. (by jleben)

    

    I think stitch is a great example. It's a pretty small library that accomplishes a single goal (real-time lock-free queues for inter-process communication). Uses modern C++--atomics, std::array. It's reasonably well tested. AND uses modern CMake best practices.

12. nushell

    10 231 34,880 9.9 Rust

    A new type of shell

    

13. argparse

    11 8 3,015 6.6 C++

    Argument Parser for Modern C++

    

    argparse is another good one. Templated (delicious), tested, AND has conan and debian package deployment.
