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.

Clang-tidy ignore third party
If your dep is not on any of those, then you can write your own port with vcpkg very easily like this.
-
How would you create/maintain a new c++ project using modern tools/practices?
Are they only on git(hub)? You can write a vcpkg overlay port (example) or use FetchContent if the projects are FetchContent ready in a way that doesn't force FetchContent on people trying to build the project (example).
-
CMake/Make problem when compiling C++
Take a look at cmake-init, vcpkg and this example that shows how to pull dependencies from git(hub) using vcpkg's overlay ports.
-
How to download libraries with vcpkg?
cs50 doesn't appear to be present in the MS repo. No problem, you can write your own overlay port. You can find an example for that here: https://github.com/friendlyanon/cmake-init-vcpkg-example
-
Managing Newlib as a Project Dependency
You can take a look at vcpkg or Conan. Maybe vcpkg could be simpler here, because overlay ports are simpler to write than setting up Artifactory for Conan.
-
Best way to manage dependencies with c++?
Conan and vcpkg are the only options. I use them both, depends on what kinds of dependencies I want to pull. vcpkg is easier to setup custom one-off dependencies with using overlay ports, while Conan is faster at things if your profile fits one that has a pre-built binary in CCI. Both are trivial to integrate with a CMake project, see these examples for Conan and vcpkg.
-
Libraries
Here is an example that shows you how to write your own ports for libraries that don't have one provided by vcpkg. The alternative is doing it manually, but eh.
-
CMakePresets.json and vcpkg based GitHub Action workflows for C++
As part of the cmake-init examples I also have an example showing vcpkg integration with a CMake project with exact instructions on what that takes, which also involves CI.
-
Barbarian, an open and distributed Conan package index!
Overlay ports.
-
Problem with imported library
IMPORTED targets have directory scope, they aren't global like the other target types. Depending on what your project's type is and how it's used, the correct answer can vary from just requiring a path to be passed on the CLI to proper package management usage (e.g. vcpkg)

CMake install schema for single- and multi-config generators
https://github.com/friendlyanon/cmake-init This is how you do CMake properly. If you deviate from its install rules you are highly likely to do something wrong.
-
cgen: another declarative CMake configuration generator
CMake itself is as declarative as a build systems need to be. For anything nontrivial, these "declarative" solutions all fall apart. Just use https://github.com/friendlyanon/cmake-init, learn CMake and you won't have any issues.

How does one actually build a C++ project
If you want something with a (mostly) Just Works experience then just use https://github.com/friendlyanon/cmake-init
- CMakeList.txt, add_executable vs. add_library vs. target_link_libraries vs. target_link_directories
- Check out my tasks.json for C++ of VScode
- Clang++ Halp
-
Putting libraries in program folder
For CMake basics check out the official "Getting started" tutorial: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/guide/tutorial/index.html, as well as Introduction to Modern CMake. You can also get inspired by the CMake project generator cmake-init
- Recourses to help understand libraries/projects and setting them up?

How to Create a Modern C Project with CMake and Conan
You can just use https://github.com/friendlyanon/cmake-init to get a CMake + Conan C project ready to go with a short little command: cmake-init --c -e -p conan coolio
