Hi!
When browsing a crate, it’s often hard to tell if there’s a more popular or widely used alternative available. I usually end up switching to Perplexity or ChatGPT to search for similar crates.
Proposal
On a crate’s landing page, we could display similar crates ranked by popularity—using dependents and downloads as metrics—so users can quickly discover alternatives without leaving the site.
I’d be happy to collaborate and help however I can.
