Rust Vector and Quaternion Lib

I use this library I made for Vectors and Quaternions in many personal projects. I've open-sourced it, in case anyone else would get use out of it. I use this on various projects, including quadcopter firmware, a graphics engine, a cosmology simulation, and several molecular dynamics applications. No_std compatible.

In plain words

Rust Vector and Quaternion Lib is an open-source library for vector and quaternion mathematics operations. It is for Rust developers working on projects requiring 3D math calculations, such as graphics engines, physics simulations, and embedded systems. The library is no_std compatible, making it suitable for environments without standard library access, including firmware applications like quadcopters and molecular dynamics simulations.

  • HelixDB – Open-source vector-graph database for AI applications (Rust)2025 · github.com · ▲237

    Hey HN, we want to share HelixDB (https://github.com/HelixDB/helix-db/), a project a college friend and I are working on. It’s a new database that natively intertwines graph and vector types, without sacrificing performance. It’s written in Rust and our initial focus is on supporting RAG. Here’s a video runthrough: https://screen.studio/share/szgQu3yq. Why a hybrid? Vector databases are useful for similarity queries, while graph databases are useful for relationship queries. Each stores data in a way that’s best for its main type of query (e.g.…

    Integrate is a fast, small, lightweight Rust library for performing numerical integration of real-valued functions. It is designed to integrate functions, providing a simple and efficient way to approximate definite integrals using various numerical methods. Integrate supports a variety of numerical integration techniques: - Newton-Cotes methods: - Rectangle Rule. - Trapezoidal Rule. - Simpson's Rule. - Newton's 3/8 Rule. - Gauss quadrature methods: - Gauss-Legendre. - Gauss-Laguerre. - Gauss-Hermite. - Gauss-Chebyshev First Kind. - Gauss-Chebyshev Second Kind. - Adaptive Methods: -…

  • SIMD Viterbi Decoder in RustAug 2026 · github.com · ▲64

    I wrote libcorrect in C in 2016 and wanted to revisit it in Rust. Instead of doing just a direct conversion, I went down the rabbit hole of making Rust's std::simd work for me. I ended up with a templated, generic Viterbi decoder for convolutional codes that dispatches the decode at runtime depending on which instruction sets are available. For small rates and orders, the entire decode lives in registers. Larger codes work through memory but take advantage of some acceleration structures. I also spent some time building a tool to find optimal (max d_free) conv codes for a given rate and…

    Hi 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…
