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.

[February] Programming languages for CFD
Lately, it has been great to see libraries like hipfort (https://github.com/ROCmSoftwarePlatform/hipfort) and focal (https://github.com/LKedward/focal) come around to offer portable GPU offloading in Fortran.

[RANT] I really, really wish working with compiled languages is as easy as working with Python.
Could you go into more detail? If you're referring to https://github.com/FluidNumerics/SELF, I've just taken a look and it does seem like their documentation on how to build is lacking. Usually if that's the case, you can dig for whatever their CI configuration is and manually follow those steps, but it's not clear here: they have a mechanism to build Singularity containers (ci/run_tests) but everything else in ci seems unrelated. Their CONTRIBUTING.md is out of date and incomplete, and as you've already seen their build system (Makefile, install.sh, test.sh) is a total mess. Pretty much all modern scientific codes are using at least CMake now. (It's either that or hacked-up and hardcoded recursive make, rather than autoconf.)

[February] Programming languages for CFD
I'm definitely a fan of Fortran for writing CFD and numerical PDE solvers (https://github.com/FluidNumerics/SELF) in general. Fortran was my first programming language, and I'm not a "geezer geek" (I'm 30 years old). While I also program in C and C++ on some projects, Fortran is my go-to. As others have already mentioned, the array syntax in Fortran is fantastic. It really helps to be able to work out algorithms on paper and translate cleanly into multi-dimensional arrays.
What are some alternatives?
stdlib - Fortran Standard Library
fpm - Fortran Package Manager (fpm)
Fortran-MOOC - Material related to the PRACE MOOC on Fortran programming
shenfun - High performance computational platform in Python for the spectral Galerkin method
http-client - http-client offers a user-friendly, high-level API to make HTTP requests in Fortran.
Nim - Nim is a statically typed compiled systems programming language. It combines successful concepts from mature languages like Python, Ada and Modula. Its design focuses on efficiency, expressiveness, and elegance (in that order of priority).
