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.

Struggle with C++ 20 Coroutines
PS: Take a look at cppcoro; this might help as well, especially generator<>, if you're looking to generate numbers, and stuff;
-
Does C++23 have a coroutine task promise type?
This is the only viable implementation.
-
Stop Comparing Rust to Old C++
Kind of sounds like whatever library you were using provided leaky abstractions. Something like cppcoro provides really good abstractions for coroutines, the user really doesn't need to understand why any of it works.
-
Sane coroutine imitation with macros; copyable, serializable, and with reflection
Is there a usecase for copying/serializing such coroutines? If not, I would use the normal C++20 coroutines (cppcoro?).
-
Is Tokio::sync::Mutex lock-free?
C++ has the popular CppCoro library. Async_mutex is its equivalent of Tokio::sync::Mutex, providing exclusive access to data shared between tasks.

My thoughts and dreams about a standard user-space I/O scheduler
Because the whole application is running under a single thread there is no need for atomic operations in synchronization primitives(which most of the time requires seq_cst memory order and CMPXCHG which is an expensive instruction in CPU). for example what async_mutex would look like if it knows it's running in a single-threaded scheduler (a non-atomic state variable and waiters queue).

[Discussion] What are some old C++ open source projects you wish were still active?
Maybe not old, but I wish cppcoro was still updated. It was such a nice start!

C++ Coroutines Do Not Spark Joy
It is possible to compose them more easily than described in the article; Lewis Baker's cppcoro library for example provides a recursive_generator<> type[0] that allows this without using any macros. It's up to the library part of coroutines to make things easy, end users are not expected to write low-level coroutine code themselves.
I wonder about the allocation elision. Return value optimization became mandatory, and some compilers can already elide calls to new/delete and malloc()/free() in normal code, so perhaps it will be possible to guarantee allocation elision in the future in the most used cases.

Why do lifetimes need to be leaky?
No, you don't. Existential proof: mrustc ignores lifetimes. Just flat out simply ignores. It changes some corner-cases related to HRBT, yet rustc compiled by mrustc works (that's BTW mrustc exist: to bootsrap the rustc compiler).

I think C++ is still a desirable coding platform compared to Rust
Incidentally C++ is the only way to bootstrap rust without rust today.

Rust – Faster compilation with the parallel front-end in nightly
Well, there is mrustc[0], a Rust compiler that doesn't include a borrow-checker, so it's possible to compile (at least some versions of) Rust without a borrow checker, though it might not result in the most optimized code.
AFAIK there are some optimization like the infamous `noalias` optimization (which took several tries to get turned on[1]) that uses information established during borrow checking.
I'm also not sure what the relation with NLL (non-lexical lifetimes) is, where I would assume you would need at least a primitive borrow-checker to establish some information that the backend might be interested in. Then again, mrustc compiles Rust versions that have NLL features without a borrow-checker, so it's again probably more on the optimization side than being essential.

Forty years of GNU and the free software movement
> Maybe another memory safe language, but Rust has severe bootstrapping issues which is a hard sell for distros that care about source to binary transparency.
It is possible to bootstrap rustc from just GCC relatively easily, although it's a little bit time consuming.
You can use mrustc to bootstrap Rust 1.54: https://github.com/thepowersgang/mrustc
And from then you can go through each version all the way to the current 1.72. (Each new Rust version officially needs the previous one to compile.)

GCC 13 and the state of gccrs
Mrustc supports Rust 1.54.0 today
- Any alternate Rust compilers?
-
Stop Comparing Rust to Old C++
There are three. The official one, mrustc (no borrow checker, but can essentially compile the official rustc) and GCC (can't really compile anything substantial yet). Only rustc is production-ready though.
-
Can I make it so that only the newest version of Rust gets installed?
That probably depends on what you mean by problematic. Having an ever increasing chain of dependencies isn’t the most desirable situation so there has been some work to trim the bootstrap chain. In 2018, when the blogpost I linked above was written, mrustc was used to bootstrap rust 1.19.0; now mrustc can bootstrap rust 1.54.0 so the chain to recent versions is much shorter than if all those intervening versions back through 1.19.0 needed to be built. https://github.com/thepowersgang/mrustc
