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.

What are the chances that React Native drops the whole bridge thing, and instead it rendered the UI similarly to how Flutter does with Skia? This would improve performance and would make custom UIs much easier to build.
There is already a project trying to bring Typescript into Flutter, but its on early development: https://github.com/hydro-sdk/hydro-sdk This will also probably create many extra pains for developers since existing Dart packages would have to be wrapped.
-
possible to ship binary package?
It's probably vastly more trouble than it's worth, but you could technically write the package in Typescript and use Hydro SDK to compile it to Lua bytecode that can run on the Dart VM with Flutter bindings, then distribute that bytecode with a package that wraps the Hydro API.

Bachelors Thesis Ideas
As an open source author, I've been thinking about some general and domain specific optimizations https://github.com/hydro-sdk/hydro-sdk/issues/797 I'd love to chat if OP has time.
- Drop down your Github repos if you think you have projects that are interesting and need stars.

Decoupling the Development Time Experience of Flutter from the Dart Programming Language
In terms of interoperability, the short answer is mostly-yes. Any Dart code can be made to interoperate with code written using Hydro. Taking an existing Dart package and making it useable from Hydro is automated. The tooling isn't quite ready for prime time (nor is the entire SDK) https://github.com/hydro-sdk/hydro-sdk/tree/master/lib/swid

Introducing dart_eval, an extensible Dart interpreter in pure Dart, enabling code push for AOT apps
Hydro-SDK has a small Dart-like language built into it to support binding generation (https://github.com/hydro-sdk/hydro-sdk/tree/master/lib/swid/frontend/swidi).

Programmatically Refactoring Dart Code?
The analyzer API is enormous. I've had a lot of success using the analyzer API, but abstracting over it with my own ASTs that can be manipulated and transformed (https://github.com/hydro-sdk/hydro-sdk/tree/master/lib/swid) and using code builder (https://github.com/dart-lang/code_builder) to emit Dart code.

Eight years ago, I wrote a Ruby parser in Dart which I recently rediscovered and now ported to sound null-safety. With < 1000 LoC for the parser plus 1000 LoC to transpile Ruby to Pseudo-Dart it might be an interesting example. For fun, I added a simple evaluator that only supports the fibonacci fn.
I've been having a lot of fun writing a compiler in Dart (in a pure functional style, with pattern matching and sum types!) over here https://github.com/hydro-sdk/hydro-sdk/tree/master/lib/swid

loxcraft: a compiler, language server, and online playground for the Lox programming language
Bob Nystrom also has a blog, and his articles are really well written (see his post on Pratt parsers / garbage collectors). I'd also recommend going through the source code for Wren, it shares a lot of code with Lox. Despite the deceptive simplicity of the implementation, it (like Lox) is incredibly fast - it's a great way to learn how to build production grade compilers in general.

Bevy 0.10: data oriented game engine built in Rust
Only kind of unrelated ... Every time I see the Bevy logo I'm reminded of Wren language https://wren.io/

Are they all like this?
If you want a pure C99 (sadly not C89 like Lua) immensely fast embeddable language pure interpreter, wren is a great language with excellent features like overload by arity. There is a huge maturity gap between the languages tho.

Most important language features not touched in the book "Crafting Interpreters"?
Check out the source to Wren: https://wren.io. It’s from the author of Crafting Interpreters and builds directly on what’s discussed in the book (essentially a more complete Lox) and adds several additional types, including an array.

What are some good C programs I can read through?
The best C code I have ever read is that of wren.
