The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

datatype99: C99 with sum types, v0.1.0
I'll try it at work soon. Sounds so good because I've spent for about a year to make it look as now, see https://github.com/Hirrolot/poica (my previous experiment).
Can you provide examples of general recursion and partial application in Boost/PP? When I was working on poica, it was a real pain to catch macro blueprinting with Boost/PP as well as capture an environment for macros (higher-order Boost/PP functions always accept an additional argument that is passed to functions; it needs to be unpacked further and so on).
What are some alternatives?
When comparing awesome-c-preprocessor and poica you can also consider the following projects:
