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.

Revert "video: Prefer Wayland over X11 (take 2)"
Correct. It's explained here:
https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/pull/9345#issuecomment-201...
XWayland has special hooks into the compositors that normal wayland clients don't get.

BBC Basic returns on multiple platforms, open sourced
If that app ran in a 640x480 mode, memory accesses would be just as fast as the VGA applications 25 years ago, correct?
I think there's a lot more going on than that. Here's SDL's current pixel access code:

Games! How they write code for SDL (+ interview with the creator)
We use the code examples throughout the article. The ellipsis characters "...." in the code were added by the author of the article. You can find the source files on the official GitHub of libsdl. In addition, each fragment has a reference to a specific area in the code. By the time this article is published, many errors will have already been fixed thanks to the issues we opened (for example, here and there). However, the links in the examples point exactly to the code you see in this article. Not only do we enjoy teasing developers but we also like making their projects a little bit better!

Chip8 emulator
It's not that difficult, I recently started learning to use graphics APIs myself. OpenGL is for linux, etc., directx for windows and vulkan for all platforms. I read through a bunch of forums yesterday and decided to go for vulkan (here is a link to the sdk) for my next small projects because it can run on all platforms. I would recommend to watch a basic tutorial series (like this one) for the graphics api itself to get an understanding of whats going on. And on top of that I use SDL2 for eventhandling and ImGui for the graphical user interface. Here is a link to a guide for setting up vulkan on your platform in case you would go for it.

Why does Epic Games Store not have controller support for so many games when it's available on Steam???
If I have the the skills and expertise: I could theoretically build a simple input remapper none using SDL (Steam Input relies on it) or JoyShockLibrary as a way to handle much wider Controller Support (otherwise: it would've been far more difficult to get Input API working across major Controller Types without documentation or reverse engineering).

Practicing Rust, Learning Bevy, Creating a WASM Snake Game for the Browser
Nice.
Speaking of Snake game, if you want to go even deeper, you can try to use the wgpu crate to combine Rust and WebGPU to write everything from scratch. Here is the tutorial:
https://sotrh.github.io/learn-wgpu/#what-is-wgpu
I once wrote a code editor with wgpu, from font rendering to char/line state management (very rough) for music live coding:
https://github.com/glicol/glicol-wgpu
It runs in browsers, even including Safari!

Realtime Ray Marching implemented with Rust and wgpu
https://sotrh.github.io/learn-wgpu/ This is probably the best resource out there for learning wgpu specifically. If you're unfamiliar with graphics, the learnopengl one is good. If you've got experience though, jumping right into that one is a shout or looking at some vulkan ones as they're pretty similar in terms of architecture.

Is it possible and realistic to learn independent of an API?

What would be a good project structure/ design for a game engine using WebGPU?
Most of The WGPU I learnt is from https://sotrh.github.io/learn-wgpu/ but it doesn't really talk about designing n stuff, I thought of checking out the source code for Bevy or even games like veloren. But well, their codebases are pretty big to get started in the first place.

Learning OpenGL before wgpu?
So I was wondering if opting for option 1 would be better to begin with. OpenGL has a much bigger community and wgpu only has its documentation which I hear is not quite up there yet. There is this excellent tutorial for wgpu that I read through, but it seems like wgpu can be a lot more complicated than starting with OpenGL.

Getting started with computer graphics with Rust
I started with wgpu tutorial (https://sotrh.github.io/learn-wgpu/) since I like the idea of portability and it's a Rust-first library, but it seems I'm missing some foundations of how CG works in general: the code is given, a little of explanation like it assumes I already know something, maybe I'm wrong, but I wish there was a longer explicit version.

Trying to learn wgpu
If you haven't seen it: https://sotrh.github.io/learn-wgpu/ is a good introduction that will explain most of what you asked, then can refer to rend3d or bevys renderer to see how a render graph works.
