The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

Fornjot: A next-generation Code-CAD application
I have been working on a .net wrapper for opencascade (https://github.com/veggielane/EngrCAD) but opencascade interop from .net is a pain. I also fell in and out of love with SDF, as most CAM tools need BREP.
I agree with people in this thread, the world needs more CAD kernels. I also think that we need a language agnostic markup language to represent the BREP.

Fornjot: A next-generation Code-CAD application
https://gitlab.com/Michael-F-Bryan/arcs
All of this is very ambitious and I look forward to a day when a good CAD system written in Rust is readily available.
In the mean time I shall keep plugging away at the Solvespace C++ code:
What are some alternatives?
When comparing EngrCAD and arcs you can also consider the following projects:

truck - Truck is a Rust CAD Kernel.
CascadeStudio - A Full Live-Scripted CAD Kernel in the Browser
constraints - An experiment in writing algebraic constraint solvers for 3D CAD
Fornjot - The world needs another CAD program.
ruststep - A STEP toolkit for Rust
