I'd like to nominate burn (crates.io, Github), a framework for neural network models.
I have recently been using it in anger and have found it really decent with a very helpful community.

I'd like to nominate zino: a full-featured application framework for Rust which emphasizes simplicity , extendibility and productivity .
I'd like to nominate manyhow, a newly released crate of a friend.
It combines anyhow and proc_macro_error (which sadly seems abandoned), to make error reporting in proc macros easy.
Nominating system-deps --- declarative build.rs which serves two purposes:
- you don't need to write build.rs yourself !
- if someone wants to integrate your code with non-cargo based build, they don't have to read your build.rs

Self-nominating script-macro -- experimental way of writing simple proc_macros inline.
I often have to programmatically generate testcases from files, and I am somewhat dissatisfied with the options available (custom test harness, writing your own proc macro, using a single-purpose proc_macro like test-generator). This is my attempt at providing another option, though I don't use it anywhere atm.

I'd like to self-nominate dlhn.
It's a new serialization format implemented using Serde.
In the recently released v0.1.4, deserialization of DateTime types has been greatly improved, now offering approximately 3 times faster performance.

Qdrant is an open source production ready vector database/similarity search engine written in Rust. There are APIs available for Rust, Python, Javascript/Typescript and Go.
I'd also mention it's blazingly fast, but you already knew that, did you?
(Full disclosure: Sort of self-suggestion, I recently joined the company)

I'll nominate dateparser, "A rust library for parsing date strings in commonly used formats. Parsed date will be returned as chrono's DateTime<Utc>."
Astrolabe is a date and time library for Rust which is feature rich, lightweight (zero dependencies) and aims to have an easy to use API. Some of it's most useful features:
- Custom formatting and parsing with format strings based on Unicode Date Field Symbols
- RFC 3339 timestamp parsing and formatting
- A built in cron expression parser
- Offset functions to work with timezones (No local timezone yet)
- Many manipulation functions to freely modify date and time
Disclosure: This is a self-suggestion : )
I'm nominating whichlang, a fast OSS natural language detector in Rust with no dependencies:

GitHub - oxidecomputer/progenitor: An OpenAPI client generator - An OpenAPI client generator - had a 0.3 release 2 weeks ago, includes 8 months of active development since the v0.2 release.
In addition to lots of improvements to support all the varied ways people use OpenAPI, it includes two notable enhancements:
- Generation of
clap-based CLIs - Generation of strongly-typed mocks with
httpmock
You can feed it rest-api-description/api.github.com.yaml at main · github/rest-api-description · GitHub , and with very minor tweaks to the input yaml, it can spit out a GitHub client Cargo.toml and lib.rs, and with a few lines of Rust you can use it to create a mock GitHub API service.

Lint of the Week
So far i have been enjoying TWiR very much.
I like the Quote/Crate of the week suggestions.
Can we have something alike for Clippy Lints?
There are so many good allow by default lints, which help me a lot.
I use cargo cranky in a 3 step approach.
- cargo check
- cargo clippy
- cargo cranky
This helps me writing better code and finding slips.
After Installing 1.70 i updated my Cranky.toml with clippy::unnecessary_struct_initialization and i got one match.
This has shown me how easily I overlook something
and maybe i am not the only one
