Fearless SIMD 1.0 brings stable, safe SIMD to Rust

Fearless SIMD, a Rust library for writing fast number-crunching code without unsafe blocks, reached version 1.0 on September 21, 2026. The release freezes its API, so code written against it today should keep compiling. That matters because more than 1,000 Rust crates already depend on it, directly or through other libraries. The Linebender project announced the release on its blog on September 22. The version is also listed on docs.rs, the Rust documentation host, with a September 21 date.
