Case study:

Most of the shopping site like Amazon,Flipkart have option to categorization or filtering producing based on customer requirements like Rating,Brand,Price range etc which can found at left hand side of the screen in most of the case
eg:
or
like filtering option you can find in github issue section like author,sort,lable on the top portion

My proposal is about adding such type of feature like filtering and categorization to crate.io
for choosing library based on:
Operating system
Windows
Linux
Mac
Android
Architecture
Arm64
Arm32
x86
x32
Category
Gui
non std
License
MIT
Apache 2.0
gnu

You may have the double that Rust code will run in different platform and use LLVM Technology, and you can find this type of detail using tag and documentation of package available in crates.io why is this type of feature
Some time rust contain FFI library or Api that available only to a particular operating system and Architecture or sometime a library is only build for a particular operating system which develop forget to specifies in document or tag of a package or library
Data for filtering purpose or categorization of library can be obtained form cargo.toml file or from the developer by asking during uploading package to crate.io
you can add such type of feature as a side bar , pop up page,slide down section which completely depend on ui/ux designer
you can find some categorization features when you enter in to the home page of crates.io
like New Crates,Most Downloaded.Just Updated,Most Recent Downloads etc
