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.

Kalman Filter Tutorial: Kalman Filter from the Ground Up
They are widely used in narrow circles :)
Two of (arguably the best) open source RC aircraft flight controllers (ArduPilot and PX4) are using extended Kalman filters in their state estimators (essentially sensor fusion that provides attitude/position estimate):
https://github.com/ArduPilot/ardupilot/tree/master/libraries...
https://github.com/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/blob/main/src/modules/e...
I'm not that familiar with cleanflight/betaflight/inav scene to know what the FPV racer flight controllers use.

here pro vs here 4 GNSS RTK performance
Trimble also has some nice stuff, I think the BD940 is interesting. I do not know if it's recommended or not, but Ardupilot has a driver for the Septentrio GPS (https://github.com/ArduPilot/ardupilot/blob/master/libraries/AP_GPS/AP_GPS_SBF.cpp), as well for Trimble GPS (https://github.com/ArduPilot/ardupilot/blob/master/libraries/AP_GPS/AP_GPS_GSOF.cpp). So people have used these brands for drones.

How do I make a flight controller and what do I need?
You might also want to look at something like Ardupilot

Robotics team is entering in an autonomous boat competition, need some advice.
I'd like to emphasize the reference to Ardupilot bc there is a lot of material already developed there: a lot about navigation and guidance from UAVs, and the low-level stuff. Check this out

Comp Sci Student Interested in Embedded
RIOT-OS is somewhat popular in academia, it tries to be very approachable but there are still plenty of low hanging fruits with all kinds of hardware and you can use it for software and thesis projects.

Is Mbed still relevant?
You could also take a look at RIOT-OS. http://riot-os.org

Looking for a GitHub repo which contains unit tests
RIOT-OS has a lot of unit tests for all the boards they support. And it's written in C. https://github.com/RIOT-OS/RIOT/tree/master/tests

What's the best book and microcontroller to learn embedded design?
Another option is using RIOT-OS. But that unfortunately doesn't support PWM for the Weact. It does support PWM for the Bluepill and Blackpill STM32f103 and the Nucleo-f446 After quick search. \ https://riot-os.org
-
What should I buy to begin learning embedded systems development?
If you want to use C, I would suggest trying out RIOT-OS. It's a modern embedded operating system, written in C and focussed on IOT. It works on a lot of different boards. https://github.com/RIOT-OS/RIOT
- Best kit to get started using C.

Programming arduino in actual C
Alternatively, you can also write your code in an RTOS. They often have scripts that make flashing and debugging easy. One that I personally like, and also supports Arduino, is RIOT-OS.
