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.

This week I released v2.1 of my text-templating library Weave that now uses Source Generators by default.
I am currently using NTypewriter for code generation.

Embedded source generation?
With NTypewriter you can generate anything. It connects Scriban templates with data exposed from Roslyn API. You can run templates from VS (design time) or embed them (run time) into your application with the help of Buildalayzer.
-
Typescript models to C# POCOs
With NTypewriter you can generate clients for any language (TS, Java), because you have full control over generated code, but similar to other tools, it uses C# as an input language.
- A useful project I found a couple months ago
-
Code generator like plop.js for dotnet
You can use NTypewriter for that, it is mainly for generating typed TS clients, but in general, you can generate whatever you want.
- Library for generating C# code strings programmatically(Or "Object Oriented-ly")?
-
Tools you use to help you with rapid application development.
You can try to use NTypewriter for code generation, but its main purpose is generation of java script clients for APIs or documentation.

Best, most useful extensions for Visual Studio 2022?
NTypewriter is better and alive, but I am definitely biased.

Custom intellisense error or warning feedback?
I don't know of anything out of the box that would emit errors/warnings for a case like that, but if it was something you were dealing with often enough you could certainly write your own analyzer if one doesn't already exist.

What are the hardest topics in C#/.NET you would like to know more/better?
I also couldn't find many info in docs nor more advanced tutorials, but this list of source generators helped me as an inspiration.

Why is no-one using Roslyn token-based code generation with Source Generators?
I'm planning to rewrite all of our company's old T4-based codegen tools into Source Generators. I've been looking at how other Source Generators are implemented and what surprised me is that everyone seems to assemble the output code manually as text with string builders or at best some simple templating engine (eg. Scriban). I expected that I would see a lot of projects assembling their output code from Roslyn tokens and then using Roslyn's formatter to produce the actual code that can be emitted into the output file(s), like this article demonstrates. No-one seem to be doing that though. Why?
