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.

Memory leak proof every C program
Hilarious!
But I remember the first time I saw such a program which never freed anything: jitterbug, the simple bug tracker which ran as a CGI script.
It indeed allows a very simple style!
Meanwhile, use ccan/tal (https://github.com/rustyrussell/ccan/blob/master/ccan/tal/_i...) and be happy :)

My review of the C standard library in practice
Please note that the above link has been claimed by squatters and isn’t the right link for CCAN anymore! The maintainer suggests [1] just using the GitHub repo [2] instead.

[ROAST MY CODE] Implementing generic vector in C
This is a great learning exercise but not very useful because using void* creates practical problems that the compiler cant help you with. IMHO, for a nice vector in C look at https://github.com/rustyrussell/ccan/blob/master/ccan/darray/darray.h

Toward a better list iterator for the Linux kernel
For more advanced intrusive lists in C, I've found that ccan's tlist2 (https://github.com/rustyrussell/ccan/blob/master/ccan/tlist2...) provides a decent model here.
Compared to the linux kernel's intrusive lists, it also tracks the offset of the list_node within the structure contained by the list, which eliminates another class of problems. It does still have the "using the iterator after the for loop is over" issue discussed in this article, but it also already tracks the types as Linus proposed doing in the article to resolve the issue.

Good C Source Code
ccan library https://github.com/rustyrussell/ccan I think it is used also in the linux kernel(?)

What are your favorite C resources? They can be either for learning or reference.
ccan (analagous to cpan, but for C rather than Perl.)
-
Dynamic link list
You could use a discriminated union in your list node. You could use a void pointer in your list node, allocate space as needed and memcpy the date into this space, or don't allocate and store pointers to the original data. You could use an intrusive list, like this.

The Byte Order Fiasco
The fallacy in the article is that anyone should code these functions. There's plenty of public domain libraries that do this correctly.

Template generator for C?
I guess something like that may exist but it can be done with the preprocessor alone. See https://github.com/tylov/STC or https://github.com/glouw/ctl
-
STC Templated Containers library V3.8
I assume you refer to that two of the letters match with STL or STD, right? Even if they are not related to C at all. I assume STB, CTL, are not acceptable for you either?

How to make develop C application easier?
The standard C library lacks any kind of containers (vectors, hash tables etc.) so the first thing would be to find one you like. For example, the C Template Library is a nice one: https://github.com/glouw/ctl
-
The Rust compiler has gotten faster again
While I agree the common pattern is to use void*/dynamic dispatch, this is not necessary. E.g., https://github.com/glouw/ctl/ or https://github.com/c-blake/bst show a couple ways to have generic code statically specialized in regular old C.

STC 2.0: standard template containers for C
The template instantiation is rewritten and is now similar to how glouw CTL library does it. STC no longer contains long macros for generating the templated code.
-
Quasi general AVL-Tree implementation
define type macros before #including the implementation. (intrusive) This is how https://github.com/glouw/ctl does it. The good: type-safety. no casting, clear error messages. Somewhat clumsy to have to individual #includes for each container type instantiation of the same container.
