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.

Cocotb
The cocotb bus repo has many of the useful drivers and monitors. https://github.com/cocotb/cocotb-bus/tree/master/src/cocotb_bus. There is also https://github.com/alexforencich/cocotbext-axi for some relevant AXI examples that you can also just use.

Any better options than Sigasi?
I've written a LSP that uses modelsim, ghdl or Vivado to do error checking: https://github.com/suoto/hdl_checker

What Editor is Everyone Using for FPGA design? (2021)
NeoVim + CoC + hdl_checker

VHDL native lsp
As others mentioned, rust_hdl and ghdl ls are worth checking out. If your project has both VHDL and Verilog/SystemVerilog, might be worth checking https://github.com/suoto/hdl_checker (disclaimer, I'm the author). It's got less LS features than the other two but if you use it with modelsim it'll provide mixed language syntax check.

IDE / Editor of choice
Specifically for HDL-files a lot of progress has been made in the last couple of years on lsp-mode and external LSP servers for code analysis of both VHDL and SystemVerilog. For SV I use the https://github.com/suoto/hdl_checker server that passes the code you are working on live to the Linting engine in Questa/ModelSim and marks the warning lines in the editor. It's nice to get immediate feedback on missing semicolons etc. although it still has a hard time handling large projects.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing cocotb-bus and hdl_checker you can also consider the following projects:
cocotbext-axi - AXI interface modules for Cocotb
completor.vim - Async completion framework made ease.
