Mark Russinovich (Azure CTO): "it's time to halt starting any new projects in C/C++ and use Rust"

• rust-gpu

  82 6,972 7.7 Rust

  🐉 Making Rust a first-class language and ecosystem for GPU shaders 🚧

  

They are even writing a Rust compiler for GPU shaders, so that their codebase is entirely Rust even for GPU code. That way they might be the first people in modern history to write entire games in a single language.

• rust

  2,683 93,266 10.0 Rust

  Empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.

  

One is merged and "official".

• InfluxDB

  www.influxdata.com featured

  Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  

• gccrs

  102 2,270 10.0

  GCC Front-End for Rust

  

i was talking about https://github.com/Rust-GCC/gccrs

• gdnative

  93 3,565 7.2 Rust

  Rust bindings for Godot 3

  

If you're willing to get your hands a little dirty, you can also use Rust anywhere that exposes a C API or allows you to dynamically load C ABI libraries, but then you have to work with ugly interface stuff. It's doable. Using Rust with Godot isn't too unreasonable through gdnative/godot-rust. No idea how that's going to change up with Godot 4, though.

• Fyrox

  63 7,273 9.9 Rust

  3D and 2D game engine written in Rust

  

There's also the Fyrox game engine. Took me a little to find it, because it used to be called rg3d. I haven't used it in a while, but when I did, it was clunky but usable.

• autocxx

  17 2,049 7.7 Rust

  Tool for safe ergonomic Rust/C++ interop driven from existing C++ headers

  

I used autocxx in a recent project and was amazed at how easy it was to call into C++ -- Rust Analyzer was even able to provide completion hints.

• clash-ghc

  33 1,375 9.1 Haskell

  Haskell to VHDL/Verilog/SystemVerilog compiler

  

This probably isn't what you had in mind, but there's https://clash-lang.org/

• SaaSHub

  www.saashub.com featured

  SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews. SaaSHub helps you find the best software and product alternatives

  

• azure-sdk-for-rust

  9 650 9.3 Rust

  This repository is for active development of the *unofficial* Azure SDK for Rust. This repository is *not* supported by the Azure SDK team.

  

• mrustc

  75 2,090 8.8 C++

  Alternative rust compiler (re-implementation)

Technically mrustc can compile a subset of the Rust language to C.
