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.

We Are Doomed: A pessimistic point of view of "modern software engineering"
Neither Apple nor Microsoft want any usable multiplatform graphics API. For this reason, none of them delivers such a thing.
If you want a multiplatform graphics API, you should use a library which implements such API on top of these native OS-specific APIs.
I have good experience with that one: http://diligentgraphics.com/diligent-engine/ I’ve used it couple times on Windows with D3D12 backend, and on Linux with GLES 3.1 backend.

The Ultimate Cross-Platform Rendering Engine?
Diligent Engine: They say their engine is the successor of bgfx, but I'm not rly into that topic.

Collecting the best C++ practices
Diligent Engine. A Modern Cross-Platform Low-Level 3D Graphics Library and Rendering Framework Tweet.
- Diligent Engine 2.5.3 is out: path tracing tutorials, render state cache, hot shader reload and more
- Good repos for beginners to browse that follow best modern C++ practices (including testing, static analysis etc...)
- Check out a new path tracing tutorial in Diligent Engine that shows how to use a render state packager to build pipeline states off-line and pack them into archive so that they can be loaded fast at run time.

Improving my CPP skills
Read other people's code (I recommend modern small to medium sized github projects, because large ones can be overwhelming) or else you will forever stay in your bubble of how things are done. For example, I had learned a thing or two by using (and code browsing) diligent engine's source.

A Rant on Developers
I'm not speaking out of my ass, either, I have very actively followed low-level development being done towards open-source engines such as Diligent and Wicked. I personally am a contributor to the latter engine, as well. It is baffling to me that independent developers don't support this platform.
- Diligent Engine v2.5.2 is out: Render State Notation, State Object Serialization, Off-line packager tool and more

Cinder – a C++ library for programming with aesthetic intent
I developed in Cinder about 10 years ago. The company I was working for was using openframeworks for a different project and I start looking at Cinder for new version with better features. I started building out a new framework on top of Cinder (https://github.com/Downstream/ds_cinder). It’s still actively developed today and has been used in making a lot of really cool interactive designs. It’s pretty cool to see this project still kicking.
