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.

Need to learn Arduino Programming Language
arduino.cc has a lot of tutorials!

Help? DFR Nano Unresponsive
When you write your code and compile it, what environment are you doing it in? Are you using an online cloud service like arduino.cc's IoT cloud? Or have you downloaded and installed the Arduino IDE application from arduino.cc's software download page?

Need help with a sound module
There are tons of libraries for the Arduino platform that people have written and there are many available for use with this module, so you don't have to do any super heavy lifting programming-wise. In the Arduino IDE you can download from arduino.cc I installed a couple of libraries just now as a test. The reason I installed them is because almost every library comes with several short example programs showing how to use the various features that their library offers.

What to do after Paul McWhorter's New Arduino Tutorials?
Did all of it make sense? Could you do the projects he shows by yourself without starting and stopping the video? That might show areas that you would want to brush up on. Another great idea is to go through all of the commands on the arduino.cc language reference page. Make sure you instinctively understand what each function listed does and experiment with any that you aren't familiar with.

There are also IoT cloud style dashboards at places like arduino.cc that let you add various widgets for dials and controls to represent the data you have locally with your Arduino.

Hardware (timer) PWM, accurate pulse generation on Arduino DUE
Mentioned at arduino.cc. Designed to generate a periodic interrupt, I'll have to code a little state machine to change the interval at every firing.

Arduino Uno not uploading, Suspected driver problem.
Without a good explanation from them I really wouldn't put much stock in it. If anything they're probably just trying to steer people away from CH340 devices in part because they are problem children and because arduino.cc themselves don't use them.

Please help. Hi, I'm new to Reddit, and I created this account especially to get some help. I really want to start in robotics, so I'm starting in electronics. I bought a kit with these things, and now I don't know what I can do or where to start. Would you like help and ideas for a project I can do
Ontop of this, step 3 and 5 are a must in learning. And don't think "it's just blinking, lame" think more of "what can I do with this?" Use arduino.cc for reference.

Linux market share passes 4% for first time; macOS dominance declines
I wonder if this could be related to M1/2/3 Macs being worse for x86 system software development than the old Intel Macs. I work on ROS[1] which runs on x86 Linux platforms, but usually develop on a Mac. I may have to move to a Linux laptop soon because there's not an easy path (that I'm aware of) to running x86 ROS code on an M3: compiling the entire system for arm would be a huge headache while running x86 code in a Linux VM under Rosetta has a lot of unknowns.
Obviously my case is a bit of an outlier, but once you add up enough outliers you might see a real impact.

Getting into Robotics as a Software Engineer
Robotics is a broad field and is a confluence of many specialties: mechanical engineering, hardware engineering, software engineering, control, machine learning, computer vision, anything in between is a good entrance.
Coming from software, if you are interested, I would suggest either:
- Backend platform development (Python, C++ as main programming languages with a strong focus on ROS[1]).
- Frontend development (nothing too different from what's out there).
As small projects I would suggest playing with ROS to learn it and getting a running simulation with a simple robot that you can teleoperate, most of the stack already exists, it's just connecting everything together [2].
Another venue is open source contribution [1] to get known within the community and potentially attract interest from companies. ROS has multiple packages, from cloud infrastructure to drivers and simulation, if you see anything there you could contribute to, they will gladly take contributions.
In general robotics greatly benefits of good technologies from other areas, if there is a tool we use you believe could be better or a lack of good tooling in a specific area, it will get noticed.
So this would be my suggested path: learn C++/Python if you're not familiar with, learn ROS and watch which specialties appear more often in robot related jos posts [3]. If you are really invested, maybe go to a robotics conference as ROSCon to meet other enthusiasts, which companies are engaged with the community, etc.
Good luck!
Note: not everything robot related is done in ROS, but it's almost a standard within the field save for a few exceptions.

How do I start robotics as a teen with no money?
ROS is an operating system designed for robotics (it can be run many different ways) it includes simulations for many robots (including sensors etc) and you can even design your own fully inside the software. https://www.ros.org/

[Career Advice] Transition from Software Engineer to Robotics
Hardware experience is useful, but not needed to get started working with robotics. With your software background, I recommend you look into learning ROS (Robot Operating System) fundamentals on a personal computer, you can simulate a robot using Gazebo. Good luck!

Best practices in creating a Rust API for a C++ library? Seeking advice from those who've done it before.
In Robotics, the Open Motion Planning Library (OMPL) is a popular library for multi-dimensional motion planning, and is used by ROS and other robotics-related software. There are no Rust bindings to OMPL (though there is Rust support for software like ROS), and the library is written almost exclusively in C++. There are Python bindings, but those are generated using Py++. The header files throughout OMPL are C++ header files, not C, as they contain namespaces, classes, etc.

Newbie to Robotics (Question/Discussion)
ALSO - learn ROS. If you are interested in robotics as a career, this is one of the better things to have good experience for on your resume. There are also good tutorials on using ROS with simulated robots, so if you just want to focus on the software that's a good option :)
