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.

creating a free, fast and simple digital painting software (not planned UI/UX yet)
I would also recommend looking into SDL2 or MiniFB for cross-platform support, as not everyone uses X11.
- Minimal Cross-Platform Graphics
- MiniFB: Cross-Platform Rendering Library
-
graphics library for setting pixels on screen
MiniFB is what you want for this.

Best way to write a cross-platform graphical program in C while using only bare minimum third-party libraries?
MiniFB maybe?

eBook Gentle Introduction to Assembly Language (AARCH64)
But you can have a skeleton program that sets up framebuffer for you (e.g. with minifb or TIGR), then link it that skeleton with your code (in assembly or whatever you prefer).

native web-api graphics (live, not image)
I also saw minifb, which seems like a really to-the-point way to get a buffer I can draw to., so I guess I will go in that direction (rust lib, make FFI bindings for deno, etc.)
-
Can I make graphics without any libraries?
If you just want to push pixel data to a frame buffer then I can highly recommend minifb. MIT licensed, Supports a lot of platforms, and it’s about as simple as you can get. It also handles input if you need it, too.

Simple TCP stream library - equivalent of rust's std::net::TcpStream?
Hi. I'm a C++ newbie and want to use a simple, modern library to send over a network - specifically to use the tev image viewer's IPC protocol. I don't need anything fancy, just synchronous that I can feed arrays of bytes to. I looked briefly into asio but that seems too complicated for my needs.

The joy of building a ray tracer, for fun, in Rust
In the decade I spent working on RenderMan at Pixar, I learned just how immensely useful it was to have an image viewer running in a separate process talking to the renderer over a socket or pipe. (The Image Tool, or "It" is RenderMan's viewer.) Having it stay up even if you kill the render or it crashes for some reason and being able to flip back and forth to easily compare test renders across recompiles is game changing.
If I were to start writing a new renderer, the first thing I'd do is to hook it up to an external image viewer over some protocol. These days, I find myself liking TEV (https://github.com/Tom94/tev) a lot as a simple open-source image viewer that supports this. See the links in the README for Python and Rust implementations of its protocol.
