🚜 gdnative maintenance

We currently don't have an active maintainer for the Godot 3 Rust bindings anymore. I wanted to check who is still using gdnative, and if there is interest in assisting with its maintenance.

General project direction is "keep things as stable as possible, while supporting newer Godot 3.x releases", so avoiding breaking changes or big new features.
If you are interested in addressing some of the open issues, or even if you are just actively using gdnative, let us know!

Great article listing many Rust issues.

To keep Rust viable for gamedev, it's important to address these, not deny them, on both language + library level.

godot-rust values pragmatism over purism, and deviates from common idioms where it helps ergonomics -- even if sometimes controversially.

🎇 This has been a great year for Rust in the Godot ecosystem. Close collaboration with the GDExtension team allowed us to implement tons of new features in idiomatic ways.

💟 godot-rust now has a GitHub Sponsors profile!

Makes the project sustainable in the long run & is an alternative to people/companies who would like to contribute, but not in code form. Benefits go to expenses, infrastructure and dev time.

📚 godot-rust now has a devlog!

Stay up-to-date with library development and get insights into design choices.

⏱️ Our first article is about performance, FFI calls and a minimalistic benchmark infrastructure.
By caching function pointers, gdext could improve execution time of certain Godot calls by an order of magnitude!

Godot 4.1 also comes with a robust foundation for the GDExtension API! It improves a lot under the hood and is a big milestone for language bindings (C++, Python, Rust, ...).

godot-rust now supports 4.1 by default.

Last few weeks of gdext development:

The GDExtension API breaks in Godot 4.1.
Migration is mostly done, several FFI bugs have been addressed on the way.

The godot-rust book now has a "Hello World" tutorial + guides on compatibility and selecting Godot version:
See https://godot-rust.github.io/book/gdext

Noteworthy features:
- Vector swizzling
- Signals with parameters
- Rust-native APIs for Rect2, Aabb, and Plane
- ToVariant/FromVariant derives
- Godot native structures
