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.

Trying to add tests for my cmake for catch2 with ctest.
Another possible issue would be the include(Catch) in your root cmakelists.txt . To include Catch there it must be part of your module path. Otherwise you have to include the path to that catch2 cmake file. Here is that file in their repository - https://github.com/catchorg/Catch2/blob/devel/extras/Catch.cmake . I recon that CMake doesn't know about this file since you call find_package(Catch2 REQUIRED) later in your subdirectory

Anyone else get frustrated when a block of time you wanted to spend to learning code instead goes into why some software isn’t working right on your computer?
The downside for CMake is that it’s famously crappy in its own way and the internet is full of bad examples. This isn’t terrible: https://github.com/ttroy50/cmake-examples/blob/master/01-basic/H-third-party-library/CMakeLists.txt

IDE recommendations and usage
For projects with external dependencies, I suggest starting with a lightweight editor like Atom, Sublime Text or VSCode without plugins. Try building with command line CMake, see here for some basics: https://github.com/ttroy50/cmake-examples
