Lots of new features!

Thought I should share this with those who don’t use users.rust-lang.org. Note: I’m not affiliated with lib.rs, I’m only reposting to lemmy.

Neat! And for anyone not familiar Lib.rs is a package repository, described as an alternative [frontend] to Crates.io.

Actually, it’s not a package repository (it doesn’t store crates), it’s “just” a website to display metadata from crates published on crates.io. It also shows certain information from docs.rs, GitHub, rustsec.org, etc, and has many useful features that the crates.io website lacks, including a pretty good full-text search.

It’s also quite opinated (which I consider a good thing) so that what the author of lib.rs considers relevant crates are shown first.
