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.

Ask HN: Anyone use a code to mindmap/flowchart tool?
I wish something existed in this space. I used Coati Software's Sourcetrail for a couple of years. Unfortunately it was discontinued. It was a wonderful piece of software that indexed a code repository, and exposed an interface to explore it interactively. At least for me, it significantly improved the understanding and legibility of code.
The code is in an archived state (https://github.com/CoatiSoftware/Sourcetrail). Searching for the software on Google shows some screenshots.

Ask HN: What would an IDE built for the Apple Vision Pro look like?
I think it might make large scale code visualization in a similar way to how SourceTrail does it more feasible: https://github.com/CoatiSoftware/Sourcetrail

Tools to understand a new code base
I've used https://github.com/CoatiSoftware/Sourcetrail in the past for some bits of the legacy code project I'm on. I also use vim and cscope for day to day navigation but it's harder to get a big picture with those alone.

Sourcetrail?

Does it strive to do what Sourcetrail used to ?

How to understand a c++ project
You could always try using Sourcetrail. Unfortunately the open source project is now archived but it should still help you get insights into your code.
flowistry
- An IDE plugin for Rust that helps you focus on relevant code
- Flowistry: an IDE plugin that analyzes the information flow of Rust programs, showing whether it's possible for one piece of code to affect another

When do Rust's traits make your life difficult?
Hello Rustaceans, the same lab that has brought you The Rust Book Experiment, Aquascope, and Flowistry is starting a new endeavor. We want to understand when Rust's trait system makes it hard for you to understand or debug a Rust program.

rustc-plugin: A framework for writing plugins that integrate with the Rust compiler
I'm personally excited about building developer tools with a sophisticated understanding of your Rust programs. So I've worked on tools like Flowistry and Aquascope.

Learn You an Agda (2014)
Quick, easy formal verification tools that programmers can use on the spot from the IDE are hard to make for most languages because most languages and their compilers weren't made with such thing in mind.
I guess Rust might be heading somewhere interesting with tooling, with tools like Flowistry existing (https://github.com/willcrichton/flowistry) showing what is possible. It's a plugin that can compute backwards / forwards static slices for you, straight in the IDE as a VSCode plugin. I think you need an external program that runs a full program analysis to do the same in C++.

Visual lifetime indicator
Based on how Flowistry works I think this should be possible.
What are some alternatives?
Spotbugs - SpotBugs is FindBugs' successor. A tool for static analysis to look for bugs in Java code.
rustviz - Interactively Visualizing Ownership and Borrowing for Rust
PMD - An extensible multilanguage static code analyzer.
code2flow - Pretty good call graphs for dynamic languages
Checkstyle - Checkstyle is a development tool to help programmers write Java code that adheres to a coding standard. By default it supports the Google Java Style Guide and Sun Code Conventions, but is highly configurable. It can be invoked with an ANT task and a command line program.
wslgit - Use Git installed in Bash on Windows/Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) from Windows and Visual Studio Code (VSCode)
infer - A static analyzer for Java, C, C++, and Objective-C
dbgee - The zero-configuration debuggee for debuggers. Handy utility that allows you to launch CLI debuggers and VSCode debuggers from the debuggee side.
Gource - software version control visualization
shisho - Lightweight static analyzer for several programming languages
FindBugs - The new home of the FindBugs project
nodejs-launcher - CLI for managing launch configurations for NodeJS scripts and apps
