Scientific Computing in Rust Monthly

Scientific Computing in Rust Monthly is a monthly newsletter containing the latest information about scientific computing in the Rust programming language. The newsletter can be viewed online at scientificcomputing.rs/monthly or you can sign up to receive an email copy at mailinglist.scientificcomputing.rs.

Items can be added to the newsletter by opening a pull request to this repository. We encourage contributions to the newsletter from anyone developing a Rust crate related to scientific computing: this could be a very general library for linear algebra, a very specific crate for a certain application, or anything in between. You can find more information about adding items below.

Publication process

Each month, one of the editors of Scientific Computing in Rust Monthly will finialise and release the month's newsletter. Once the finalisation is complete, this can be done by triggering the release newsletter workflow. We aim for this to be done in the first 2 weeks of the month.

Before releasing a month's newsletter, the editor should check that everything on the editors' checklist has been done.
