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.

Coroutines in C
I've found myself at this webpage multiple times while trying to minimize the complexity of APIs in my C projects.
My conclusion for now is that C coroutines are something to be left to the implementer. For example: Mongoose (https://github.com/cesanta/mongoose) uses event callbacks to deal with asynchronousness. It is much more pleasant to wrap a library like this in whatever thread/task primitives your system has rather than try to integrate the mythical cross-platform c couroutine.

BCHS stack: BSD, C, httpd, SQLite
I remember using mongoose 15 years back. Today i would have considered mongoose(10k+ stars) which is also a mature c/c++ web server[1] if not the licence.

Experience using crow as web server
Alternatives at the low to medium level of abstraction include civetweb and mongoose, which have a common ancestor. Both of these appear to be C rather than C++, but seem to be production quality and well-documented. Another C library is cpp-httplib, which is probably too low-level for me.

libonion or libhttpserver for embedding a webserver in a small application?
Since this is only going to be used internally would Mongoose be worth considering?

Experience using crow as web server
I'm investigating using C++ to build a REST server, and would love to know of people's experiences with Crow-- or whether they would recommend something else as a "medium-level" abstraction C++ web server. As background, I started off experimenting with Python/FastAPI, which is great, but there is too much friction to translate from pybind11-exported C++ objects to the format that FastAPI expects, and, of course, there are inherent performance limitations using Python, which could impact scaling up if the project were to be successful.

returning numpy arrays via pybind11
I have a C++ function computing a large tensor which I would like to return to Python as a NumPy array via pybind11.

I created smooth_lines python module, great for drawing software
This is based on the Google Ink Stroke Modeler C++ library, and using pybind11 to make it available on python.

Python’s Multiprocessing Performance Problem
If you've never used Pybind before these pybind tests[1] and this repo[2] have good examples you can crib to get started (in addition to the docs). Once you handle passing/returning/creating the main data types (list, tuple, dict, set, numpy array) the first time, then it's mostly smooth sailing.
Pybind offers a lot of functionality, but core "good parts" I've found useful are (a) use a numpy array in Python and pass it to a C++ method to work on, (b) pass your python data structure to pybind and then do work on it in C++ (some copy overhead), and (c) Make a class/struct in C++ and expose it to Python (so no copying overhead and you can create nice cache-aware structs, etc.).

Using pybind11 with minGW to cross compile pyhton module for Windows
I have a python module for which the logic is written in C++ and I use pybind11 to expose the objects and functions to Python.
-
IPC communication between rust, c++, and python
Reading from Python requires a wrapper, using pybind11 this is fairly done.

[ADVICE] Python to C++
Also I can highly recommend starting using C++ to augment your Python code, i.e. find the parts that are slow or undoable in Python and write those in C++ then expose them as Python functions. You can use https://github.com/pybind/pybind11 to call C++ code from Python.
