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.

Rust – Are We Game Yet?
> Same for Godot.
While likely true that it's "Unlikely to ever be as supported" as the 4 officially supported languages[0] ("GDScript, C#, and, via its GDExtension technology, C and C++."), Godot's GDExtension technology is specifically intended for use in adding support for other languages.
The most relevant tracking issue for Rust is presumably:
* <https://github.com/godot-rust/gdnative/issues/824>
Which links to:
* <https://github.com/godot-rust/gdextension>

what's the state of using rust in Godot 4?
The Rust binding for GDExtension is still at an early stage as advertised by the ReadMe, but we're making steady progress. Thanks to active contributors, the last month has been very productive, with support for arrays, dictionaries, vectors, transforms, single/double precision, as well as several bugfixes and higher test coverage.

Godot 4.0 is out
Worth noting that with Godot being 'built in' matters less - C# is a first class language in Godot 4 but it also isn't built in, because the engine can be extended with fully integrated language plugins. This is a new thing in Godot 4, Rust is being added in the same way but isn't ready yet.

Raku + Godot? GDExtension, could this be possible?
An example would be Lua and Rust bindings.

Unlikely to ever be as supported as what Epic themselves maintain though. Same for Godot. If you want to use something that will for sure support Rust, you better use a Rust project for the games.

In which circumstances is C++ better than Rust?
- Unreal https://github.com/MaikKlein/unreal-rust and if you look inside the FFI part (called workspace in Rust) at what libs it uses https://github.com/MaikKlein/unreal-rust/blob/main/unreal-ffi/Cargo.toml is cbindgen which is a FFI generator tool

and my career ended before it could start
You’re probably right that Epic sure as hell won’t rewrite the whole engine… but devs ARE making support and have been for a while: https://github.com/MaikKlein/unreal-rust

Do you feel it's a waste of time programming in C++/Rust for 3d graphics or game programming in 2022 ? Every others fields of programming seem to pay more like JS/React webdev ?
If you like Rust there are (immature) bindings for Unreal and Godot. Or you might like to use a pure Rust engine like Bevy, Fyrox etc.
