  • wg-allocators

    Home of the Allocators working group: Paving a path for a standard set of allocator traits to be used in collections!

    • See this discussion from the wg-alloc working group: https://github.com/rust-lang/wg-allocators/issues/24

  • getrandom

    A small cross-platform library for retrieving random data from (operating) system source

    • IIUC the main problem which prevents from moving HashMap & co to alloc is lack of API to get system entropy which is required for DOS protection. Ideally we would have a #[global_allocator]-like functionality for retrieving system entropy. Relevant issue: https://github.com/rust-random/getrandom/issues/21

  • WorkOS

    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.
