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.

Fortran, not as main language but I find it fascinating
A good starting point: https://fortran-lang.org/

Are there any good FORTRAN IDEs on Linux?
Glad you're interested in Fortran. Not sure how old that book is, but take a look at https://fortran-lang.org/ for the latest news and best practices for modern Fortran (for example, there's now a standard library and package manager).

HELP! New to Fortran
Install wsl and then in Linux install fortran gfortran. Fortran has moved on from 77 so find some f90+ stuff. https://fortran-lang.org/

Ask HN: Which programming language communities seem most excited these days?
I cannot compare excitement across programming language communities, but I can say that there has been a lot of progress in the Fortran community, centered around the site https://fortran-lang.org/ and forum https://fortran-lang.discourse.group/ and surveyed in a preprint https://arxiv.org/abs/2109.07382. A package manager, standard library, and a compiler with a REPL (LFortran) are being developed. The Fortran standard has coarrays for parallelism, which several compilers have implemented.
A few years ago the main Fortran forum was comp.lang.fortran of Usenet, and although people did release tools and code, their efforts were scattered.

Toward Modern Fortran Tooling and a Thriving Developer Community
The Fortran-lang group has written a paper summarizing their efforts, such as a web site https://fortran-lang.org/, a Fortran standard library, the Fortran Package Manager, Fortran Discourse, and LFortran.

A Summary of Fortran [pdf]
Old content (this is from 1992) should have a year in the title. This is a summary of Fortran 77. The latest standard is Fortran 2018, and Fortran 202x is being worked on. Some features of Fortran 2018 have been implemented in compilers.
For current information on Fortran one should visit https://fortran-lang.org/ .

Resurrecting Fortran
There is speed of compilation (I did some very preliminary benchmarks and I think it will be very good) and there is speed of the generated code, there currently we just use stock LLVM. But down the road we will have special optimizations on top, just like Intel Fortran is doing. Some of the things I personally would like to have a close look on is array operations, where I've heard from many users that they are slower than explicit loops. And function inlining and other such operations.
We want to have a dedicated repository for benchmarking compilers:

What are some alternatives?
When comparing fortran-lang.org and benchmarks you can also consider the following projects:
stdlib - Fortran Standard Library
lapack - LAPACK development repository
FABS - Fortran + Apache + BSD + sqlite = Web framework
BoundaryValueDiffEq.jl - Boundary value problem (BVP) solvers for scientific machine learning (SciML)
