Project Description
The Entity Component System is Data-driven architectural pattern, using composition over inheritance (contrary to Object Oriented programming). It is used in complex systems such as simulators, games, and Fintech; where the projects specify an array of complex systems that are loosely coupled. Projects where one needs to horizontally expand and change the behavior of a small subset of systems knowing that there will be no unwanted behavioral change carried to others, while at the same time provide a way to expand functionality that can be reused by a big number of the systems.
A Flight Dynamic Model is a physics model for a flying object such as a plane. These models are present in flight simulators and games, and vary in accuracy and complexity: from simulating simple forces over a specificied wing area, using graphs from real wind tunnel experiments, to performing a virtual real-time wind tunnel against the shape of the aircraft, simulating propeller wash, ground effect, vortex effect, and others.
eXtended Position Based Dynamics is a novel approach (2020) to simulating physics that is both more performant and accurate than typical approaches.
Goal for this Hackweek
Implement the Flight Dynamic Model specified in "Physics for Game Developers, by Bryan Bywalec, David M Bourg", in an ECS. Particularly:
In the Bevy Engine. A performant and very ergonomic ECS engine, that provides massive parallelization for free, with a cache-friendly architecture for the resulting code.
Using bevy_xpbd: A physics library using the novel eXtended Position Based Dynamics, available for Bevy. XPBD is both more performant and accurate than other physics approaches. In addition, it supports variable time deltas, which could allow to simulate and reconcile the state of the world in a concurrent, desynchronized way.

Better diff'ing experience by MSirringhaus
Description
For diff-ing directories, I usually like to use meld, but it struggles a lot with large trees. Experiment with writing a TUI meld-clone for diffing directories and files
Goals
Get first prototype going of a TUI that can show
- diffs of text-files
- diffs of directories.
Stretch goals
- Themes
- Filters (no whitespace, etc.)
- Live config changes (Show/hide line numbers, etc.)
Kanidm: A safe and modern IDM system by firstyear
Kanidm is an IDM system written in Rust for modern systems authentication. The github repo has a detailed "getting started" on the readme.
In addition Kanidm has spawn a number of adjacent projects in the Rust ecosystem such as LDAP, Kerberos, Webauthn, and cryptography libraries.
In this hack week, we'll be working on Quokca, a certificate authority that supports PKCS11/TPM storage of keys, issuance of PIV certificates, and ACME without the feature gatekeeping implemented by other CA's like smallstep.
For anyone who wants to participate in Kanidm, we have documentation and developer guides which can help.
I'm happy to help and share more, so please get in touch!

Write an url shortener in Rust (And learn in the way) by szarate
So I have 469.icu :), it's currently doing nothing... (and for sale) but in the meantime, I'd like to write an url shortener from scratch and deploy it on my own server

SMB3 Server written entirely in Rust by dmulder
Description
Given the number of bugs frequently discovered in the Samba code caused by memory issues, it makes sense to re-write the smbd service purely in Rust code. Meanwhile, it would be wise to abandon backwards compatibility here with insecure protocol versions, and simply implement the SMB3 spec.
Goals
Get a simple server up and running and get it merged into upstream Samba (which now has Rust build support).
