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.

Why Modern Software Is Slow
> dictionary hashing is too slow to be ideal
Even when you use SIMD intrinsics?
For example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_SHA_extensions
A repo I just found illustrating those instructions' usage: https://github.com/noloader/SHA-Intrinsics
- SHA256 optimization for speed and memory for microcontrollers
refterm
- Linux Terminal Emulators Have the Potential of Being Much Faster

What Happens Before the Main Function is Called ?
refterm, a terminal emulator proof of concept.
- Beside SDL, is there an easier way to just show a custom rectangle with text, cross-platform?
- Windows Terminal is now the default Windows 11 22H2 console

Why Modern Software Is Slow
> licensing it so that they couldn’t even look at it
https://github.com/cmuratori/refterm/blob/main/LICENSE
It’s just GPL 2.0, what are you talking about!?
Are Microsoft employees vampires that will burn up instantly if they merely glance at GPL code or something?
This is sour grapes nonsense from Microsoft. “We don’t like your tone so we won’t even dignify your argument by considering it.”
At one point an MS employee said they would love to fix their code as suggested by Casey but he refused to even look at the YouTube video!
“I would love to hear your arguments but I refuse to listen to the sound of your voice.” is next-level dismissive.

How can I create a rogue engine from scratch without curses?
Casey Muratori made a renderer/terminal a short while back. Might be a good reference of you intend to go that route. https://github.com/cmuratori/refterm

Microsoft insults dev then takes credit for their idea
You keep complaining that it's not a fully working terminal. Casey, on the other hand, writes here: [1]
> These features are not designed to be comprehensive, since this is only meant to be a reference renderer, not a complete terminal.

Burn My Windows
After that post they did implement a full reference implementation:
https://github.com/cmuratori/refterm/commits/main
And there is movement in getting changes into the terminal itself:

For a basic example of why you would want GPU acceleration, have a look at refterm: https://github.com/cmuratori/refterm
Even processes that you wouldn't think would be impacted by a terminal can be hurt relaly bad by your terminal's performance: your compiler's logs, etc. The GPU rendering part merely guarantees that your terminal sticks at 60FPS (or, whatever your refresh rate is) if the processing behind is efficient.
