wgpu
Safe and portable GPU abstraction in Rust, implementing WebGPU API
wgpu is a safe and portable graphics library for Rust based on the WebGPU API. It is suitable for general purpose graphics and compute on the GPU. Applications using wgpu run natively on Vulkan, Metal, DirectX 11/12, and OpenGL ES; and browsers via WebAssembly on WebGPU and WebGL2. Angle is a translation layer from GLES to other backends, developed by Google. We support running our GLES3 backend over it in order to reach platforms with GLES2 or DX11 support, which aren't accessible otherwise. In order to run with Angle, "angle" feature has to be enabled, and Angle libraries placed in a location visible to the application. These binaries can be downloaded from gfbuild-angle artifacts, manual compilation may be required on Macs with Apple silicon. The wgpu crate is meant to be an idiomatic Rust translation of the WebGPU API. That specification, along with its shading language, WGSL, are both still in the "Working Draft" phase. -

Graphite
An open source graphics editor for 2025
Graphite is a modern, open-source, prototyping and design tool built for vector graphics, motion, and state-driven UIs. It combines traditional vector drawing capabilities with features like animation timelines, state machines, and interactive prototyping—all in one toolchain rather than separate apps. The interface supports layering, boolean operations, masks, and full node-based parametric controls for shapes and effects. Because it’s built to be extendable, plugin support allows importing/exporting formats, custom tools, or integrations with code frameworks. It also focuses on performance and scalability—handling complex vector scenes with many nested elements fluidly. For designers and developers looking to prototype UI transitions, interactive states, and motion-driven interfaces without separate design/code handoffs, Graphite positions itself as an all-in-one creative engine. -

Zenith
Sort of like top or htop but with zoom-able charts, CPU, GPU
In terminal graphical metrics for your *nix system written in Rust. The make file provides for building fully static versions on Linux against the musl C library. It requires musl-gcc to be installed on the system. Install "musl-tools" package on debian/ubuntu derivatives, "musl-gcc" on fedora and equivalent on other distributions from their standard repos. If one needs to build with NVIDIA support in a virtual environment, then it requires some more setup since typically the VM software is unable to directly expose NVIDIA GPU. Unlike the runtime zenith script, the Makefile has been setup to detect only the presence of required NVIDIA libraries, so it is possible to build with NVIDIA support even when without NVIDIA GPU. -

OpenShell
OpenShell is the safe, private runtime for autonomous AI agents.
OpenShell is an open-source runtime designed to safely run autonomous AI agents in isolated environments. Developed by NVIDIA, it provides sandboxed execution spaces that protect system resources, credentials, and data from unauthorized access. Each agent runs inside a containerized sandbox governed by declarative YAML security policies that control network access, file permissions, and process behavior. The platform includes a gateway service that manages sandbox lifecycles and routes AI inference requests through controlled providers. OpenShell also features a privacy-aware routing system that prevents sensitive information from leaving the sandbox environment. By combining container isolation, policy enforcement, and agent orchestration, OpenShell offers a secure infrastructure for developing and operating AI agents. -

GitUI
Blazing fast terminal-ui for git written in rust
GitUI provides you with the comfort of a git GUI but right in your terminal. I do most of my git work in a terminal but I frequently found myself using git GUIs for some use-cases like index, commit, diff, stash, blame, and log. Unfortunately, popular git GUIs all fail on giant repositories or become unresponsive and unusable. GUI provides you with the user experience and comfort of a git GUI but right in your terminal while being portable, fast, free and open source. The simplest way to start playing around with gitui is to have cargo build and install it with cargo install gitui. gitui should automatically work on both light and dark terminal themes. However, you can customize everything to your liking. Browse commit log, diff committed changes. Scalable terminal UI layout. Async git API for fluid control. -

bandwhich
Terminal bandwidth utilization tool
bandwhich sniffs a given network interface and records IP packet size, cross referencing it with the /proc filesystem on linux, lsof on macOS, or using WinApi on windows. It is responsive to the terminal window size, displaying less info if there is no room for it. It will also attempt to resolve ips to their host name in the background using reverse DNS on a best effort basis. bandwhich can be installed using the Rust package manager, cargo. It might be in your distro repositories if you're on linux, or you can install it via rustup. Cargo installs bandwhich to ~/.cargo/bin/bandwhich but you need root priviliges to run bandwhich. To install bandwhich on OpenWRT, you'll need to compile a binary that would fit its processor architecture. This might mean you would have to cross compile if, for example, you're working on an x86_64 and the OpenWRT is installed on an arm7. -

Lightpanda Browser
Lightpanda: the headless browser designed for AI and automation
Lightpanda is an open-source headless browser designed specifically for automation, artificial intelligence workflows, and large-scale web interaction tasks. Unlike traditional browsers that include full graphical rendering engines meant for human users, Lightpanda is built from scratch to operate entirely in headless mode, focusing only on the components required for programmatic web interaction. This design allows it to execute JavaScript and interact with web pages while avoiding the overhead associated with rendering images, fonts, and layout elements intended for visual display. The browser is implemented using the Zig programming language and integrates the V8 JavaScript engine to run modern web applications and scripts efficiently. Because it avoids graphical rendering and other heavy browser components, the system uses significantly less memory and launches almost instantly compared to conventional browsers such as Chrome. -

uutils coreutils
Cross-platform Rust rewrite of the GNU coreutils
uutils is an attempt at writing universal (as in cross-platform) CLI utilities in Rust. Many GNU, Linux and other utilities are useful, and obviously some effort has been spent in the past to port them to Windows. However, those projects are written in platform-specific C, a language considered unsafe compared to Rust, and have other issues. Rust provides a good, platform-agnostic way of writing systems utilities that are easy to compile anywhere, and this is as good a way as any to try and learn it. The requirements are to have Rust (cargo, rustc), GNU Make (required to build documentation), Sphinx (for documentation), and gzip (for installing documentation). uutils follows Rust's release channels and is tested against stable, beta and nightly. The current oldest supported version of the Rust compiler is 1.43.1. On both Windows and Redox, only the nightly version is tested currently.
