Some people in reddit suggest renaming to the repository name. Do you think I should change the repository name? If so, please give me your idea for this repository's name.

I'm wondering whether I should do it.

ref:

Just a heads up that I got a lot random whining from folks about calling ripgrep a "replacement" for grep so long as it wasn't POSIX compatible or otherwise bug-for-bug compatible with grep. In response to that, I added a FAQ item: https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep/blob/master/FAQ.md#posix4ever

And I'm not really a fan of calling this "Awesome Rewrite it in Rust." I didn't set out to "rewrite grep in Rust." Not only was it not my intent, but ripgrep is quite literally not a rewrite of grep in Rust in any sense of the word.

May I suggest a rename to "Alternatives in Rust (AIR)"?

I think having a list like this is awesome, just change the name might be good.

"Awesome Alternatives" might be better?

My bikeshed for the rename is "Awesome Rust Rewrites"

I wrote a utility called just that is a replacement for using make as a command runner. However, it’s not a build system, so it’s not a full replacement for make. I wanted to open a PR adding it, but wasn’t sure it would be a good fit.

What’s the policy for sort-of replacements for existing utilities?

I haven't checked how complete they are, but delta is a Rust-based diff viewer that lists "diff-highlight and diff-so-fancy emulation modes" as one of its features and sad says "Any git compatible colourizer would work. I perfer these two:" before listing delta and diff-so-fancy.

fastmod is a fast partial replacement for codemod. Like codemod, it is a tool to assist you with large-scale codebase refactors, and it supports most of codemod's options. fastmod's major philosophical difference from codemod is that it is focused on improving the use case "I want to use interactive mode to make sure my regex is correct, and then I want to apply the regex everywhere". For this use case, it offers much better performance than codemod. Accordingly, fastmod does not support codemod's --start, --end, or --count options, nor does it support anything like codemod's Python API.

Thank you for making awesome-alternatives-in-rust better!

Here's a checklist for things that will be checked during review or continuous integration.

• [x] cargo run passes locally.

changelog:

• Add Brot

changelog: Added ion as an alternative shell. While it is developed for RedoxOS, and used in it as the default, ion is easily installed on *nix platforms with cargo install, or even from the repos.

I've made a few minor tweaks to the Rust code of this repo to follow more Rust idioms which may improve readability as well. Thanks for this great project! :grin:

changelog:

• Change single-character string slices to chars
• query.find("...").is_none() → query.contains("...")
• Use unwrap_or_default() instead of unwrap_or(DEFAULT_VALUE)
• Specify variable type in declaration of collected iterators
• url_checks.len() > 0 → !url_checks.is_empty()
• Empty unneeded "" from println macro

Hi! I'm a maintainer on the Pants open source project, a build system that was originally written in Python (Pants 1) then was rewritten from the ground up (Pants 2) using Rust for the core engine. Additional info about how Pants 2 takes advantage of Rust https://blog.pantsbuild.org/fast-incremental-builds-speculation-cancellation/. Though the two projects share name and maintainers, Pants 2 is a wholly new codebase with different design goals. Meanwhile Pants 1 continues to be used and supported in its original incarnation.

Would it be appropriate to open a PR adding Pants to the list? And if so, would creating a new heading, Development Tools > Build Systems be 👍? Pants is more powerful than a command runner, which is the closest fit among the existing headings.
