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.

Game screen: write terminal emulator or use libtcod?
Libtcod itself uses SDL2. It maps tile glyphs to a texture atlas and maps Unicode codepoints to tile positions. Then it has another data structure called a console which has the background color, foreground color, and codepoint for each tile on that console. It then uses SDL_RenderGeometry to quickly render the background and colored glyphs to an SDL texture, skipping unchanged tiles as an optimization, then renders that texture to the window. The C99 source is here: renderer_sdl2.h renderer_sdl2.c, a C++ version would surely look better.

what minor tech projects do you absolutely adore?
libtcod has always been a favorite of mine. Does a lot of things to zero fanfare outside the indie roguelike scene.

Sharing Saturday #427
I've ended up recovering the old 1.3.2 to 1.5.0 builds of libtcod. You can find them on the GitHub releases page. Most of, maybe all of the other places which had these builds are down, but thankfully Jice still had copies of these builds.

SRiC ("Simple" Roguelike in C) has stairs now, and multiple floors!
Hey man, I don't wanna piss in your cherrios if you're intentionally doing it all the hard way, but you know about tcod right? https://github.com/libtcod/libtcod/

libtcod roguelike C tutorial?
Browsing the repo, looks like it has a full C only API, https://github.com/libtcod/libtcod/blob/master/src/libtcod/libtcod.h

The 7DRL Challenge 2022 is announced! Create a complete roguelike game in 7 days.
libtcod support for terminals is in progress at least for ANSI true colour, and I have a minimal compatibility layer for UNIX only.

Container2wasm: Convert Containers to WASM Blobs
I'm using Dear ImGui for my cross-platform code (which includes running in browsers):

New Vulkan Documentation Website
I wonder if using your library (https://github.com/floooh/sokol) instead of OpenGL will alleviate some of these issues for newcomers! There's already a sokol port of the learnopengl.com code (https://github.com/GeertArien/learnopengl-examples), so it shouldn't be too hard to match between the tutorial articles and these.

Meta Releases Intermediate Graphics Library
If you're looking for something like this, Sokol is a much simpler alternative:
https://github.com/floooh/sokol
It doesn't support vulkan though, but if that's important to you you're probably much better off just using vulkan directly since it's supported on all the major platforms.

Why glibc 2.34 removed libpthread
All I can do is give you a couple of Github ticket links where users of my libraries stumbled over the issue (and with different symptoms):
- https://github.com/floooh/sokol/issues/376
- https://github.com/floooh/sokol/issues/404
- https://github.com/floooh/cimgui-sokol-starterkit/issues/6
We then added a dummy call to a no-op pthread function, so that users can better figure out that they need to use -pthread because now they get a linker error instead of a runtime crash or hang. This has since reduced the 'support overhead' quite a bit:

File for Divorce from LLVM
My stuff for instance:
https://github.com/floooh/sokol
...inspired by:
https://github.com/nothings/stb
But it's not so much about the build system, but requiring a separate C/C++ compiler toolchain (Rust needs this, Zig currently does not - unless the proposal is implemented).

How can i play .wav file with C ?
I have never personally used it but I'm pretty sure sokol has an audio library that might be what you are after.

Website with Godot?

I want to talk about WebGPU
It's not Rust and TS, instead C and JS, but Emscripten has a very nice way of integrating C/C++ and JS (you can just embed snippets of Javascript inside C/C++ source files), e.g. starting at this line, there's a couple of embedded Javascript functions which can be called like C functions directly from the "C side":
