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.

How to use C++ as the core language for a Fantasy Console?
If you want to use C++ for scripting, take a look at Jason Turner's ChaiScript
-
Enabling C/C++ compilation in an application.
3) Similiar to 2, but use more common scripting languages: chai, cs-script, sol2 (c++ framework to embed lua)

ArkScript, a language designed to be used in C++ projects, now has macros
A few years back I actually went and made a ChaiScript based video game engine (https://16bpp.net/blog/post/masala-a-chaiscript-game-engine/). The end goal for it was to be able to make a Pacman like clone, but have all of the game logic implemented in ChaiScript. I actually found out as I added more realtime elements (implemented in ChaiScript) that it started to take much longer to process the game logic; the "game loop FPS" was under 60, which is not good. I actually proposition that ChaiScript move to a bytecode VM (https://github.com/ChaiScript/ChaiScript/issues/266), but I'm guessing that no movement was made on that front.
- Is it advisable to embed python in c++ ? Have anyone tried it, what is the best way to do it?
-
Looking for a codegen library that uses C++ for scripting
Maybe ChaiScript? It is not exactly what you are looking for, but very similar, in my opinion.

LÖVR – An open source framework for rapidly building immersive 3D experiences
A question: would it be too much work to port Love2D to a different embedding language? (I'm currently having looks at Squirrel (http://www.squirrel-lang.org/) I always thought Lua was tightly coupled with the framework, but what you've mentioned seems to imply that's not the case.
-
What language(s) pair well with Rust (learning, using, etc.)? Also, what other languages did you learn before learning Rust?
The second one that comes to mind is Squirrel, which is a compiled language designed to be embedded into other programs. It’s similar to lua in concept, but closer to C in syntax. I never did a lot with it, but I did learn it.
What are some alternatives?
