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.

Are Hoistings Possible for C++?
When you say a fork of LLVM, am I correct in assuming that you specifically mean a fork of Clang? I don't see how the compiler backend would affect support for language extensions, regardless of whether it's an exception to that such as Tcc, Cproc, the MIR C jitter, lacc, 8cc, 9cc, and chibicc. Most of those are not for production, excluding Cproc and Tcc (at least according to Suckless or Oasis).

Ravi is a dialect of Lua, with JIT and AOT compilers
MIR comes from the Rubyverse and isn't related to LLVM MLIR.

Nelua Programming Language
> I wish C was scriptable
C kinda can be used as scripting language with MIR project https://github.com/vnmakarov/mir
It was released just a few days ago, and I've successfully use it as an alternative and fast C compiler with Nelua.
