• The “HertzBeat” project from the Java category looks like a fresh player in the market of monitoring solutions.
• If you just starting with Spring and Spring Boot the “Master Spring and Spring Boot” from the Java category might be very helpful for you.
• If you are learning Rust the “Rust 101” project from the Rust category can be interesting for you. This project demonstrated extreme growth in January 2023.

• Nowadays many organizations have Kafka in their technology stack. The “UI for Apache Kafka” project interesting and promising project to include in your toolset. As it is claimed on the project page – built by developers, for developers.
• The project growth trends in the Rust category are incredible. It is clearly visible that Rust is a “hot” topic in the development community.
• The “burn” project from the Rust category seems something really needed. A deep learning framework with a focus on researchers and practitioners. I would like to see more AI/ML-oriented projects coming in this category.
