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.

CryptoGotchas
- Study found that developers (still) have a distinct lack of knowledge in understanding the fundamental concepts of cryptography - call for dedicated studies to investigate the usability of crypto APIs

I know the mantra is “don’t roll your own crypto”. What are the common pitfalls that people fall into when making their own cryptography programs? For example, why shouldn’t I use the Chacha program that I just wrote?
I present the list of Crypto Gotchas that I've seen in real world code. All of these mistakes have happily many times and broken systems. (They also generally assume that your underlying cryptography is properly built but you still get things wrong.)
