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.

Help needed with random name generator
Read the original original and then the C# port
-
Is it possible to procedurally generate documents & files on office PCs for a hacking game like how Minecaft generates worlds?
About Markov chains, I've bookmarked a nice project
- Markov Namegen — library with demo website
- how do you name your Monsters, races, and items?
- Any APIs or other sources for in-game character name/location etc generation?
-
I wanna suggest a useful ad-free resource for game characters naming. It contains lots of unusual names with full info about them (years and country of origin, meaning, etymology, etc.), as well as lists of Knights Templar names, Oldest European names, various centuries names, etc.
I just implemented in my toolkit a Markov chain Name generator like this in python but I was thinking:

Procedural generator for names for anything
When first posted about my generator, I've been told that there is MarkovNameGenerator by Tw1ddle on GitHub: https://github.com/Tw1ddle/MarkovNameGenerator. Well, thinking about it, I'd still made my own generator, because procedural generation is so much fun :) In the pros of my generator is that it's a tiny js file, however, you'll need to feed it with learning samples, while Tw1ddle's one has a great variety of learning samples pre-gathered and multiple work modes.

Markov Namegen - Procedural Name Generator using a Markov Process
I compiled most of the datasets from Wikipedia list-of-* articles over the years. A few were also sent to me by people asking for them to be added.

Generating Master of Orion 2 like starmap
You mean you want to draw the individual stars themselves? It's likely just a texture, probably white so that it can be colored differently for each star. This is how I've done it. Try a Google image search for "flare texture". You can find some of the ones I used here (flare*.jpg): https://github.com/fegennari/3DWorld/tree/master/textures

Map Generation by Diamond Square with Shading and Raycasted Shadows.
I remember it being called "wave surfing", where you start at the current pixel and draw a line to the light source, checking the elevation vs. the altitude value of the line (Y or Z) at every step. I have the code in my mesh_shadow_gen class here: https://github.com/fegennari/3DWorld/blob/master/src/visibility.cpp

How to manage a buffer containing objects of varying size? For sparse chunk loading/unloading
This all sounds complex, but the system can be made to work well. I've written something similar myself, except with VBOs rather than SSBOs. My code can be found in these two files: https://github.com/fegennari/3DWorld/blob/master/src/buildings.h

Procedurally Generated Spider Model and Animation
C++ code for drawing spiders can be found in my GitHub project, in the spider_draw_t class: https://github.com/fegennari/3DWorld/blob/master/src/building_animal_draw.cpp

Procedurally generated 8km Octree Terrain using Compute Shaders and WGPU (Rust)
Filling the cracks properly generally gives better performance and fewer drawing artifacts compared to skirts. If you use indexed triangles and set them up in neat rows and columns, it's pretty easy to get right. No lookup tables or big switch cases, and it works with any number of LODs. See the crack_ibuf_t code starting around like 1800 here: https://github.com/fegennari/3DWorld/blob/master/src/tiled_mesh.cpp

Pixel planets with Pygame and OpenSimplex
I wrote a planet name generator that combines multi-character combinations. It may not do as good as a proper Markov Chain, but may produce names that sound better than your simple approach. If you're interested, the code can be found here: https://github.com/fegennari/3DWorld/blob/master/src/Universe_name.cpp

Reusing vertices while using marching cubes/tetrahedra
The code for this is in my voxel_manager::add_triangles_for_voxel() on line 497 here: https://github.com/fegennari/3DWorld/blob/master/src/voxels.cpp
- Memory Management for infinite procedural generation algorithm (please help me I beg)

Best approach to render a lot of text.
Thanks. Yes, I was looking at this. The problem is that the texture atlases are in a different format than the ones I currently use. The MSDF versions don't have all of the ASCII characters and some characters have a different number of pixels. So it's not a drop in replacement for my system, which is using texture atlases like this: https://github.com/fegennari/3DWorld/blob/master/textures/atlas/text_atlas.png

Rigid Body Physics with rotation question
I have some code for this here, but it's part of a large project and not easy to read/understand: https://github.com/fegennari/3DWorld/blob/master/src/free_obj.cpp
