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.

Beside SDL, is there an easier way to just show a custom rectangle with text, cross-platform?
I would recommend C bindings for the Dear ImGui (https://github.com/cimgui/cimgui)
-
ImGui or text rendering libraries
For GUI, there are lots, most well-known of course being Dear Imgui, for which people have made auto-generated C bindings. Another mature but a lot simpler option is Nuklear, as others have mentioned. Even more minimalistic (it's just 1KLOC) is microui. There are a lot more, just google "imgui library c".

Nuklear – A single-header ANSI C immediate mode cross-platform GUI library
DearIMGUI has both an unofficial C wrapper and a new official C binding generator. I have personally used the CIMGUI wrapper with C99 apps using the Direct3D11 backend and it works great. The new API is started by the DearIMGUI creator but is still adding features that are available in CIMGUI.

Create a Window in C/Where to Begin
I would give ImGui a look, it is technically a c++ api, but there is a plain c version https://github.com/cimgui/cimgui/tree/docking_inter which is a free cross platform gui toolset
-
Imgui Zig bindings(based on ZGui)
Whilst this is great. I have a (slightly dumb) question -What advantage does using these bindings give us over just using the generated C IMGUI bindings (cimgui) directly in Zig??Especially given the fact that that the latter are autogenerated from the original C++ IMGUI.

Are there any cross-platform GUI libraries out there?
Dear ImGui is a C++ library, however a C port exists.

Black Triangles
It's fun to see the evolution in e.g. these examples of image loading for Dear Imgui:
https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/wiki/Image-Loading-and-Disp...
DirectX9 will even load the image for you, DirectX11 okay we get a few more structures to fill out, DirectX12 is where it goes off the rails and we are filling out a bunch of UNKNOWN DONT_CARE JUST_DO_IT. Then of course Vulkan is the one that gets the big fat "this probably won't actually work for you" warning.
I understand whats happening, but you know sometimes I just want to display a fucking image.

Dear ImGui: Bloat-free Graphical User interface with minimal dependencies
ImGui is engine/GPU agnostic
Themeing isn't a just a retained mode thing, you can do wonders with immediate UIs, even thought (dear)ImGui doesn't provide much, you can still do wonders: https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/issues/707#issuecomment-362...

Bonus: If you want to make desktop app with UI, then this is another great C++ library and it's also simple to learn as well. https://github.com/ocornut/imgui.

GUI library for fast prototyping
AFAIK the Rust equivalent to C++'s Dear ImGui is egui.

Stretching myself thin with Dear ImGui projects
They use a Dear ImGui, a C++ GUI library.

PCSX2 Disables Wayland Support
Aside from bugs and driver issues, Wayland has some unfortunate design limitations. For example, Dear ImGui multi-viewports don't work because "Wayland doesn't let application read or write windows positions."
https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/wiki/Multi-Viewports
This is a feature available on Windows, macOS, and of course X11. Making choices like this means desktop Linux becomes even more of a weird island that nobody wants to support.
