In RFC : Try-Catch Blocks , someone expressed concern over the discoverability of crates. To improve this situation, I suggested to have a "Crate of the Week" similar to TWIR's "Quote of the Week". To jump-start this, I'm hereby asking you folks for nominations. We seek crates that are useful, unsun…

I'd like to nominate farben. This is a highly underrated library that has a very nice syntax for printing to the standard output. Fantastic for scripts. cprintln!("[bold red]Error:[/] something went wrong."); cprintln!("[bg:blue fg:white]White on blue!"); Supports defining custom styles. Has mac…

I would like to self-nominate dithr , a buffer-first dithering and halftoning library designed around typed mutable slices. Features include explicit stride-aware image handling, Gray/Rgb/Rgba support across u8/u16/f32, palette/indexed workflows, and optional image adapters. There are implementations…

I'd like to self-nominate vtcode . A Rust-based terminal UI coding agent with BYOK multi-provider support (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, DeepSeek, GitHub Copilot, Ollama, and more). Notable additions since then: A2A (Agent2Agent) protocol, Anthropic Messages API compatibility layer, ATIF trajectory for…

Self-nominating clap-config-fallback .

It removes the need for duplicated structs and …

I would like to self nominate corylus . Is a library for embedded distributed objects , inspired by Hazelcast . It runs a small cluster of nodes that share partitioned, replicated objects . The current main object is a DistributedMap<K, V> (a distributed key/value map). Currently a work in progress…

[image] manuelgdlvh: contribute ideas for features that must be added before the first release TLS or other form of packet encryption. Documentation of replication model you're using and its properties (plus that it's not Byzantine-resistant), too.

Thank u so much for your reply! Yes, I have this in mind and also security for the peer cluster connection. Right now, I am focusing on stabilize the whole architecture and in the partition rebalance + anti entropy to detect and fix corrupted replicas. Basically build the foundation to add more d…

Again i have found Crate that just made my Week [image] GitHub - tracel-ai/burn: Burn is a next generation tensor library and Deep... Burn is a next generation tensor library and Deep Learning Framework that doesn't compromise on flexibility, efficiency and portability. …

Hey! How has I not discovered this? Thanks for the nomination, and thanks for making farben go into Crate of The Week #648 ! I could not have done it without your suggestion. Thank you so much for everything. Cheers, RazkarStudio.

A bit of a shameless plug, but I've been building an easy way to write rust device drivers that rely on embedded-hal (and other) traits. I call it pico de gallo because it's built around a regular pico 2 board. Project here: pico-de-gallo: A tool for testing Embedded Rust drivers for discrete I2C/SP…
