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.

RenderDoc is a free MIT licensed stand-alone graphics debugger
heh https://github.com/baldurk/renderdoc#readme is all "RenderDoc is intended for debugging your own programs only. Any discussion of capturing programs that you did not create will not be allowed in any official public RenderDoc setting, including the issue tracker, discord, or via email" but the 3 of the 4 screenshots are of dota2 :-D
Still, that looks handy for sure

Need help: capture Hogwarts Legacy in RenderDoc?
He's pretty clear about it every time it's asked. Tracing copyrighted games is legally questionable, and tools like RenderDoc are often abused by people to do illegal asset ripping/reselling.

Are bindless textures niche or weird?
Baldur explains why he won't implement bindless texture support in this issue: https://github.com/baldurk/renderdoc/issues/850

How to debug a non-working ray generation shader?
Unfortunately the main developer for Renderdoc is against adding ray tracing support : https://github.com/baldurk/renderdoc/issues/2317

Renderdoc Crashing On glfwCreateWindow()
Remember that Renderdoc is open source: https://github.com/baldurk/renderdoc/. This means you can build it with symbols and attach a debugger.

Renderdoc's GPU Selection on a laptop
Renderdoc works by inserting itself as a Vulkan layer, which means it can change the output of functions if it so chooses. As you can see in the RenderDoc version of vkEnumeratePhysicalDevices it changes how devices are returned, and this likely is the reason the order changes.
