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.

The future of Clang-based tooling
One of the most surprising things I learned about "clang" was how relatively poor the "libClang" capabilities are.
I wanted to write a codegen tool that would auto-generate bindings for C++ code, and it turns out that "libTooling" is the only reasonable way to get access to the proper info you need from C++.
Another alternative is "libClangSharp", from Tanner Gooding who works on C# at Microsoft.

How to make C# bindings for C++ libs
Bindings for C++ are tricky due to function name mangling and also due to ABI compat, it's basically impossible to interop with a std::vector for example. Afaik the most common approach is to PInvoke thin C wrappers around the C++ functions. There are tons of binding generators for this but they aren't without problems (not worth if you have a small API surface).

C# calling C Shared Library
3: Throwing my work away and using ClangSharpto create the bindings, unfortunately the header file for the shared library lists other C library's that I can not find online such as > #include

Genny – Generate Nim library bindings for many languages
I've found this to be true, with the exception that a few people have taken to "augmenting" libclang with extra bindings to libTooling functions or other C++-only methods.
Most notably is Tanner Gooding & Co's "libClangSharp" from the Microsoft "ClangSharp" project, and PathogenDavid's "Biohazrd" libraries (which again are a sort of enhanced fork based on ClangSharp):

How can I use C definitions in .NET 5?
If you want to go down that route, clangsharp can do this for you.

The Deep Link Equating Math Proofs and Computer Programs
If I understand what you are asking about correctly, then I do think you are mistaken.
As a sibling comment observed, you would be proving something about a program, but proving things about programs is both possible and done.
This ranges from things like CakeML (https://cakeml.org/) and CompCert (compilers with verified correctness proofs of their optimizations) to something simple like absence of runtime type errors in statically strongly soundly-typed languages.
Of note is that you are proving properties of your program, not proving them perfect in every way. The properties of your program that you prove can vary wildly in both difficulty and usefulness. A sufficiently advanced formally verified compiler like CakeML can transfer a high-level proof about your source code to a corresponding proof about the behavior of the generated machine-executable code.

The future of Clang-based tooling
> A single IR with multiple passes is a good way to build a compiler
https://mlir.llvm.org/, which is using, is largely claiming the opposite. Most passes more naturally are not "a -> a", but "a -> b". data structures and data structures work hand in hand, it is very nice to produce "evidence" for what is done in the output data structure.
This is why https://cakeml.org/, which "can't cheat" with partial functions, has so many IRs!
Using just a single IR was historically done for cost-control, the idea being that having many IRs was a disaster in repetitive boilerplate. MLIR seeks to solve that exact problem!

Tools for Verifying a Language and its Semantics
You may want to look at [CakeML](https://cakeml.org) done in HOL4, there is also a nice proof pearl about a more .. minimalistic verified bootstrapped compiler also in HOL4.

Is there a formally-proven real-time language/computing env. or operating system?
There is also Cake ML which is a formally verified functional programming language compiler and runtime.

CakeML: A Verified Implementation of ML
There is also a CakeML -> Standard ML compiler though it seems to have been built to translate benchmarks and sort of old so I'm not sure how comprehensive it is: https://github.com/CakeML/cakeml/tree/master/unverified/front-end

The λ-Cube
> One guess is that lisps cope with being minimal through use of macros and metaprogramming, it's difficult for a typed language to support that level of metaprogramming while maintaining the various guarantees that one wants from such a system.
Difficult, but certainly not impossible [0].

checkedc - Checked C is an extension to C that lets programmers write C code that is guaranteed by the compiler to be type-safe. The goal is to let people easily make their existing C code type-safe and eliminate entire classes of errors. Checked C does not address use-after-free errors. This repo has a wiki for Checked C, sample code, the specification, and test code.
