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.

Wrong result when using OpenGL for GPGPU computing
You have several tools, this can be done by printing debug messages using extensions such as KHR_debug, or using specific tools which will inject themselves between your OpenGL calls and your driver such as apitrace or RenderDoc. I recommend running your program in RenderDoc regularly even if everything seems to work fine as it may help you catch some subtle bugs.

Benchmark and optimization
That said, the profiling situation for non-NV users is not completely hopeless. You can still use API timer queries to get an idea of how long events take on the device. Tracy also supports GPU profiling, but I suspect it's just a fancy way of inserting timer queries. apitrace also claims to support profiling OpenGL apps, but I'd be wary of overhead as it's doing a lot of other things besides profiling.

Total War: Shogun 2 native version by Feral Interactive crashes instantly, gives a weird error
At first I thought Feral probably used it accidentally, but this thread about the symbol's use in apitrace seems to shed some light:

Help with SkiaSharp rendering in an AvaloniaUI control
I don't see anything wrong with your code, altough I'm not familiar with Avalonia or Silk. I suggest you try to use apitrace for (a probably long and painful day) debugging it.

Godot crashes whenever I make an OpenGL 3.0 project
I get that it's hard to debug without direct access, but isn't there some dump or log that they could generate and provide? Maybe something like using apitrace?

Looking for help reporting a mesa bug with the game Indivisible
Pierre-Eric Pelloux-Prayer @pepp ยท 6 months ago Developer https://github.com/apitrace/apitrace/blob/master/docs/USAGE.markdown is the basic doc. For Steam games I usually go to the game's folder (probably $HOME/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Indivisible) and try to run the game with apitrace (apitrace trace indivisible-executable). It should print a line to indicate where the trace file is written to (apitrace: tracing to somefile.trace.

Industrial Controller? Windows or Linux?
You might also want to look at AvaloniaUI[0] for a cross platform .NET GUI library. It is similar to WPF but much nicer to work with.

AvaloniaUI: Create Multi-Platform Apps with .NET
Production user here. There's no money gotchas. They're above reproach. In fact, I've received considerable free support from their devs on GitHub Issues [1].
The Avalonia business model is based on selling XPF, which runs WPF (Windows-only) apps on other platforms. That's very interesting to big corps with existing codebases.

.NET on Linux: What a Contrast
Yes, but the portable GUI frameworks by Microsoft themselves are generally not very good, and they tend to be abandoned after a couple of years.
Avalonia is developed outside of the Microsoft corporate madness and seems to be slowly becoming the defacto cross-platform framework because it is expected to last a bit longer than a manager's attention span: https://avaloniaui.net/

Ask HN: Do you have a problem you'd pay to have taken away?
Not my comment, but relevant here "The problem with compiling Skia to WASM is you'll lose any benefits of hardware graphics acceleration on the device."

.NET 8 โ .NET Blog
It's a bit of a hit and miss as of today. CLI, back-end and natively compiled libraries (think dll/so/dylib or even .lib/.a - you can statically link NAOT binaries into other "unmanaged" code) work best, GUI - requires more work.
Avalonia[0] and MAUI[1] have known working templates with it, but YMMV.

One Game, by One Man, on Six Platforms: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
For desktop, Avalonia, hands down.
https://avaloniaui.net/
Open source, powered by Skia, backed by JetBrains, and quite battle-tested at this point for small to medium-sized apps. In theory perfectly capable for enterprise as well, since it's basically a spiritual successor to WPF, which has been an industry standard for about 15 years.
They're diving into mobile and WASM well, but that's more of a recent effort and I haven't tested that yet.
