Compare with similar projects

Order: strongest tier first, then most downloads, then name, with unmeasured values last. A library counts downloads over 30 days. An app counts binary downloads per release. An app with none counts its crate downloads over 30 days. ML Rust runs this catalogue, so its closest project always gets a row.

Why ListedNo archive, New or Featured rule places it, so it is Listed.

What it lacks for Featured

  • It has 2 active dependents and 2 new dependents in 365 days. Featured needs 11 active dependents or 9 new dependents in 365 days. The repository route reads 75 stars, 17 forks and 2 contributors. It needs 4,539 stars, 434 forks and 79 contributors together.
  • Docs are missing: the primary crate publishes no README.
  • The project is dormant and not finished. Dormancy rule

What else the check found

  • The last activity is on 18 Sep 2025, 417 days ago. That reaches the 365 days the rules expect, so the project is dormant. Dormancy rule
  • The oldest outside issue waits 657 days for a reply, past the limit of 270. No maintainer replied in 365 days. Rot signals rule

Not measured: Latest release fails cargo check.

Exact rules: Listed, Featured library. The check on applied thresholds version 9.

Every rule outcome, as the check records it
  • expected-interval: version 0.5.0 base 140, doubled for 688399 downloads per month, raised to the 365-day floor: E = 365 days
  • dormancy: last activity 2025-09-18, 417 days ago, E = 365: dormant
  • rot: oldest unanswered issue 657 days (limit 270), no maintainer reply in 365 days
  • featured: not featured: active_users 2 < 11 and new_adopters 2 < 9 and repository route stars 75 (needs 4539), forks 17 (needs 434), contributors 2 (needs 79); docs missing; dormant and not stable
