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…

Self-nomination: https://crates.io/crates/rs_pbrt ... So far I was under the impression, that only a library should be published, but because most of the crate is actually a library, and several executables are provided (using that library), using various scene descriptions I went ahead and (finally…

Bit of self promotion. I've just publish the first public version of my actor framework based on asynchronous functions: Heph, https://github.com/Thomasdezeeuw/heph

If I am allowed to self-promote... [apparently that is the norm here]: Type conversion, success expected https://crates.io/crates/easy-cast

Self-promotion: forceatlas2 N-dimensional, type-agnostic, very fast force directed graph spacialization algorithm. Demo with a web of trust, 2D and 3D: [graph-281] [Demo 3D]

I'd like to nominate my crate for delta compression, deltoid .

cassette A simple, single-future, non-blocking executor intended for building state machines

I'd like to self-nominate serde_with A collection of custom de-/serialization functions for serde to reduce boilerplate. For example, you can serialize numbers to/from strings, skip serializing all empty Options with a single attribute, and even use these transformations inside of containers.

(Self-nomination) display_utils . It's a collection of functions to make common string manipulations easier, but yielding Display able structs instead. That way the crate uses no allocations and is no_std-compatible
