# wgpu vs ruffle

wgpu and ruffle share 6 technologies: Tokio, indicatif, wgpu, winit, tracy-client, and log. Both are written in Rust.

- [gfx-rs/wgpu](https://seerepo.com/r/gfx-rs/wgpu): A cross-platform, safe, pure-Rust graphics API.
- [ruffle-rs/ruffle](https://seerepo.com/r/ruffle-rs/ruffle): A Flash Player emulator written in Rust

## What they share and what sets them apart

- In common: Tokio, indicatif, wgpu, winit, tracy-client, log
- Only in wgpu: concurrent-queue, Deno, objc2-foundation, wgpu-hal, ash, glow, objc2-metal, objc2-quartz-core, env_logger
- Only in ruffle: lru, egui, fontdb, fontconfig, rfd, egui_extras, lyon_geom, image, quick-xml, png, ttf-parser, csv, symphonia, zip, gif, jpeg-decoder, tracing, tracing-subscriber, tracing-tracy, tracing-wasm, tracing-appender, tracing-log

## Side by side

| | wgpu | ruffle |
|---|---|---|
| Size | 376,864 lines written, 482 code files | 276,509 lines written, 743 code files |
| Who writes it | 0.1% of its commits signed by AI. With GitHub Copilot and Claude Code | 0% of its commits signed by AI. With Claude Code and GitHub Copilot |
| Activity | Last push November 6, 2026, 10,345 commits, 18,474 stars | Last push November 6, 2026, 17,770 commits, 18,816 stars |
| Tests | 172 test files. 11.8% of its code files have a test that imports them | 246 test files. 8.9% of its code files have a test that imports them |

- Size: Lines written by people and agents, without generated ones; code files, without tests.
- Who writes it: A commit counts as AI's when it carries its signature: a Co-Authored-By line, its author name or the merge of its branch.
- Activity: From GitHub and its history, on the day SeeRepo read it.
- Tests: The files that test the code, and the share of code files a test imports.
