The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Password hashing and salting
I'm building a C++ code generator and have been having some problems figuring out password hashing and salting. Does anyone use C++ to do that? This repo looked interesting: khovratovich/Argon2: Memory-hard scheme Argon2 (github.com)

So I created a custom KDF. Bad idea?
Regarding cache-hard KDFs, check out Argon2ds, Pufferfish2, hmac-bcrypt, and bscrypt.

Stop bitchin about it
It's time to adopt a hashing algorithm that takes every advantage of every feature of the modern CPU, and thwarts GPUs and ASICs: Pufferfish2

It's Confirmed: Doge Transaction Fees to be dropped *at least* 100x. Massive News!! 🎉🚀🌙
While they're at it, they should adopt something like Pufferfish2 as the proof of work; to make ASIC and GPU mining a waste of time and money.

A naive memory-hard password-hashing algorithm
bcrypt is barely cache hard, and Pufferfish 2 was a contestant of the PHC where cache hardness was the primary design priority.

An excellent example is something like pufferfish2:
