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.

Distcc: A fast, free distributed C/C++ compiler

https://github.com/icecc/icecream - another option that does what distcc does, but aimed at a somewhat different use case.
https://ccache.dev/ - a similar idea but provides caching of build outputs instead of distributing builds. You can use it together with distcc to achieve even better performance.

Do you use ccache to speed up compilation times
Of course! The github readme provides a lot of info - https://github.com/icecc/icecream

Ccache – a fast C/C++ compiler cache
If you like distcc, did you ever give icecc a try?
https://github.com/icecc/icecream
I never had the time to set it up properly, but by the looks of it, it should be even better.
- People who use distributed builds, how do you handle many compilers?

Give local devices a way to connect to clients? - openvpn
I would like to have a icecc setup I can vpn into. It seems that with normal configs the clients can talk to the scheduler, but the scheduler cant connect to the clients as it tries to connect to the device running the openvpn server not the one behind it. How could I make my openvpn clients appear almost as physical devices on the network, with unique IP's that local devices can connect to; or if that is unnecessary how could I solve this?

ccache 4.6 released
Glad to see a new release on this! I've read worrying news about the state of icecc, and the followup uncertain news on sccache, so I hope at least some part of the tooling is in a good shape.

Best way to manage dependencies with c++?
I always wanted to try to use cmake-conan so I could let Conan grab all packages but have a neat cmake script being in charge of what gets built when. Also, this would allow me to easily switch between CMake fetchcontent and Conan packages that may or may not be stashed automatically on a local Artifactory server. Secondly, since now all build requirements are stashed on a server and binary reproducible, you could concider adding icecream and ccache into the mix. (Try running a node one of your buildservers for massive speadups with icecream) This however does require a reproducible build environment (by configure script) which conan again is really good in.

What’s the best build utility?
Finally someone mentioned Bazel which would be my primary choice as well given how intuitive, easy to use or extend. Handles very large codebases easily. Go with Bazelisk as launcher: https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazelisk

rust in an enterprise environment: keeping all rust installations at the same version
I have to take a complete stab in the dark as GP's comment is deleted, but I think they may have referenced bazelisk (as that fits the context of version pinning).

Fuchsia Workstation
Bazel's single-binary distribution brings its own JVM, it has less dependencies than gn.

Experimentations on Bazel: intro
Now we have the minimum to build "nothing" with Bazel. So you need to install Bazel'cli. But I recommend you to install bazelisk, it will take care of installing the latest (or the project specific) version of Bazel. In the following articles, codes when you'll see bazel ... it could also be replaced by bazelisk ... (in fact some packaging of Bazel installs bazelisk and create an alias). For this step use your favorite way (distribution package system, download from github, homebrew,...).
What are some alternatives?
sccache - Sccache is a ccache-like tool. It is used as a compiler wrapper and avoids compilation when possible. Sccache has the capability to utilize caching in remote storage environments, including various cloud storage options, or alternatively, in local storage.
