In plain words
Gravitle is a 2D soft-body physics engine written in Rust and designed to run in web browsers. It simulates realistic soft-body dynamics, allowing developers to create interactive physics-based applications and visualizations. The tool is intended for developers and creative programmers who need soft-body simulation capabilities in web projects. Built with Rust's performance and safety features, Gravitle enables complex physical interactions to run efficiently in the browser.

Nectar, a Rust-like React that compiles to WebAssemblyJul 2026 · buildnectar.com · ▲29After a pretty rough gig experience, I wanted to remind myself that I was a vaguely capable developer. I had recently jumped on the Rust train and wanted a Rust equivalent of React that is more performant and easier to work with. I also wondered if I could effectively eject Javascript. This project came from that... Nectar is a programming language that compiles your entire app, logic, state, and rendering, to WebAssembly. JavaScript is reduced to a roughly 10 KB syscall layer that only bridges WASM to the DOM. The origin: I set out to get React-style ergonomics with better performance, and…
A minimal working Rust / SDL2 / WASM browser game2024 · github.com · ▲82"Game" is a stretch, but I put together this repo containing a pure Rust app which uses SDL2 and compiles to WASM (and can be run in a browser). Older resources were a bit out of date and a bit too verbose for my purposes, so here's a minimal working example.
- OAObelisk – a WASM-based deterministic workflow engine2025 · obeli.sk · ▲103
A lightweight engine for durable execution / deterministic workflows I built with Rust, wasmtime and the WASM Component Model. Its main use is running reliable, long-running workflows that can automatically resume after failures. Looking for feedback on the approach and potential use cases!

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
