Turf development is funded by Mapbox. If you need more Geo functionality than that provided by https://github.com/georust/rust-geo (I'm one of the developers), contributions are actively encouraged, and we're happy to mentor people. Alternatively, feel free to pay for some dev time if you need something specific (e.g. OpenCage paid to have their geocoder included in https://github.com/georust/rust-geocoding, dual-licensed as Apache / MIT).

Hi urschrei, I naively tried to port turf to Rust, but from my past experience [0] and flaky time commitment in the past; I thought it'd be too much to do alone.

I've seen georust, and it's on my backlog. There's a few functions that I saw missing (that I actively use). With mentorship, I'd love to contribute them. I'll open some issues and introduce myself in the coming days.

Hey by the way the link in the readme to the documentation is broken. It points here https://docs.rs/geo/0.9.1/geo/
I would like to join so that I would be mentored . So, where do I start ?
