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.

rustc-plugin: A framework for writing plugins that integrate with the Rust compiler
There is also https://github.com/trailofbits/dylint for writing custom lints.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (10/2023)!
Apart from clippy (which uses rustc-internal APIs), there are two other projects which can be used to implement lints: rust-analyzer can be extended with more diagnostics, and dylint provides an interface to run custom lints for Rust.

Programming Breakthroughs We Need
RE: Program is a model
There are some more advanced refactoring tools now available. These tools enable you to write code to detect bad code patterns and even automatically fix them. You can use them to write one-off transformations of code too. Rust has Dylint [1] and C# has Roslyn Analyzers [2]. Facebook has tooling [3] that helps writing CodeMods, enabling authors to generate changes for thousands of files at a time.
The thing I really would like to see is a smarter CI system. Caching of build outputs, so you don't have to rebuild the world from scratch every time. Distributed execution of tests and compilation, so you are not bottle-necked by one machine. Something that keeps track of which tests are flaky and which are broken on master, so you don't have to diagnose spurious build failures. Something that only runs the test that transitively depend on the code you change. Automatic bisecting of errors to the offending commit.

Rust code quality and vulnerability scan tool
If you're looking for something like clippy but with custom lints, there's also dylint -- it is clippy, but with support for running dynamically loaded lints across multiple versions of Rust.

Missing tooling in Rust?
You might find dylint useful! It's exactly that: a tool to run custom clippy lints.

Ask HN: Anyone use a code to mindmap/flowchart tool?
I wish something existed in this space. I used Coati Software's Sourcetrail for a couple of years. Unfortunately it was discontinued. It was a wonderful piece of software that indexed a code repository, and exposed an interface to explore it interactively. At least for me, it significantly improved the understanding and legibility of code.
The code is in an archived state (https://github.com/CoatiSoftware/Sourcetrail). Searching for the software on Google shows some screenshots.

Ask HN: What would an IDE built for the Apple Vision Pro look like?
I think it might make large scale code visualization in a similar way to how SourceTrail does it more feasible: https://github.com/CoatiSoftware/Sourcetrail

Tools to understand a new code base
I've used https://github.com/CoatiSoftware/Sourcetrail in the past for some bits of the legacy code project I'm on. I also use vim and cscope for day to day navigation but it's harder to get a big picture with those alone.

How to understand a c++ project
You could always try using Sourcetrail. Unfortunately the open source project is now archived but it should still help you get insights into your code.
What are some alternatives?
compiler-solidity - The zkEVM Solidity compiler.
Spotbugs - SpotBugs is FindBugs' successor. A tool for static analysis to look for bugs in Java code.
mina-vrf-rs
PMD - An extensible multilanguage static code analyzer.
stateright - A model checker for implementing distributed systems.
Checkstyle - Checkstyle is a development tool to help programmers write Java code that adheres to a coding standard. By default it supports the Google Java Style Guide and Sun Code Conventions, but is highly configurable. It can be invoked with an ANT task and a command line program.
