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.

Lack of modern scientific libraries written in C
C++ offers tools for writing better APIs, and since the addition of concepts in C++20 it offers much better API enforcement. Writing an equivalent to libraries such as {fmt} or EVE is not possible in anything we’d call C.

Library that could generate vectorized code for different instruction sets?
Here is a doc on how we suggest to do it: https://jfalcou.github.io/eve/multiarch.html Here is complete code of that example: https://github.com/jfalcou/eve/tree/main/examples/multi-arch

SIMD intrinsics and the possibility of a standard library solution
My source for this was the statement:
-
C++'s smaller cleaner language
Indeed you cannot. Then again, you couldn't write a library like fmtlib in C in the first place. I mean why do you complain about C++ features which enable you to write libraries you otherwise couldn't? How would you expect to implement equivalent libraries to EVE or mp-units in C alone?

DMD Compiler as a Library: A Call to Arms
Here's the pipeline spitting out the same error as on my macbook did.

My favourite Git commit (2019)
Not completely on topic (if you read TFA) but my favorite Git commit is by compiler badass and HN frequenter, where he checks in an entire C compiler to the D language repo:

The C Bounded Model Checker: Criminally Underused
A new generated code alone is 4000 lines long [1]. The actual code added is just 2000 lines, and some are used to pay debts, I mean, to make a proper code generator (which can be alternatively written in a simpler scripting langauge). In any case it is never comparable to the entier C parser proper.

OpenD, a D language fork that is open to your contributions
D is completely opensource already (https://github.com/dlang/dmd). The "open" of OpenD is just ADR saying that OpenD will be more open to new language features than D has historically been.

The OpenD Programming Language (fork of D)
The reference compiler, DMD, is open source: https://github.com/dlang/dmd
But they don't accept just any Pull Request or features the community submits, understandably. There's a process called DIP for language improvements: https://github.com/dlang/DIPs/blob/master/DIPs/README.md
However, by some accounts, it's really hard to get anything through.
Given D already has so many feature, I find that to be a good thing , to be honest, by not everyone agrees, of course.
