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.

Simplicity of IRC
You can use https://github.com/paullouisageneau/libdatachannel for your C/C++ integration needs. It's 10k lines. So the answer is 0. Its required dependencies (I assume this as they are git submodules in deps) are more than 100k lines, though, srtp support making the bulk of it. On my machine it took 11 seconds to compile it.
Irssi is 64k lines (plus its dependencies), so I guess that makes WebRTC complicated.
Can't argue that DCC isn't simple, but perhaps the protocol deviced decades ago is a bit too simple.

OBS merges AV1 support for WebRTC
Most of the work happened in the libdatachannel! You can check out my PR here[0]

Pure C WebRTC
I am really excited about https://github.com/sepfy/libpeer. It has examples ready for ESP32 etc....
When working on KVS I wasn't familiar with the embedded space at all. I saw 'heavyweight' embedded where you were running on Linux. Then you had RTOS/No OS at all. I wasn't prepared for these devices at all. If we can make WebRTC work in the embedded space I think it will really accelerate what developers are able to build!
Remotely driven cars, security cameras, robots in hospitals that bring iPads to infectious patients etc... Creative people are building amazing things. The WebRTC/video space needs to work harder and support them :)
-----
I love how diverse the WebRTC space is now. Outside of this implementation you have plenty of other options!

Building WebRTC server implementation for Erlang
This is not true, there are actually multiple WebRTC implementations in different languages besides the reference library: aiortc (python), libdatachannel (C++), sipsorcery (C#),webrtc-rs (rust), werift (Typescript), and Amazon Kinesis (C)

I spent two years building a desktop environment that runs in the browser, it's finally in beta!
Use any means necessary to transfer your data across devices. Could be IPFS, could be FTP, could be EventSource, WebSocket, WebTransport, Fetch, whatever. See https://github.com/guest271314/secure-file-transfer; offscreen-webrtc, https://github.com/paullouisageneau/libdatachannel.

Client side Rest server?
I've successfully used libdatachannel to Web pages to connect native applications and stream data to the browser.

Security Framework
Alternatively you can use your server as a signaling server for WebRTC (Insertable Streams ("Breakout Box"), or data channels https://github.com/paullouisageneau/libdatachannel), then users (peers) can exchange data themselves and you don't need to store anything, see True End-to-End Encryption with WebRTC Insertable Streams, A complete example for a WebRTC datachannel with manual signaling.

Datachannel video streaming?
there is also a c++ library that can be used to open a data channel connection, I think a number of SFU “servers?” use this library (I wish I had) https://libdatachannel.org/

could not find tokio in webrtc_unreliable
The Cargo.toml on GitHub has the optional dependency specified correctly.

How are rust devs doing?
I use WebRTC for multiplayer, and Rust has a great library (webrtc-unreliable) To be fair, C++ has libdatachannel which I like using too.

What are the differences between UDP and WebSockets, and which type of games benefit from which?
You can, in theory, get UDP-like characteristics out of a different web API - with a WebRTC datachannel configured to be unreliable and unordered. I haven't seen anybody use that API just because it's a pretty big pain to use. The developer of Agar IO called it too hard to use in a HackerNews comment, but nowadays there's simpler libraries than the ones he had in 2016 like webrtc-unreliable and libdatachannel. You still need to run a STUN/TURN server and the integration is easier than it was back then, but still much harder than raw UDP sockets though.
