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.

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

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).

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.

Why Fennel?
Now I like lua, and think single pass is the way to go for interpreted, since you don't have the disadvantage of a slow compile time no matter how big your codebase gets, BUT its not great to write in. things like +=, ++, are not possible, which means the only solution is to transpile into it, which has led to some good languages like moonscript[0], teal[1] which offers static type checking, an absolute must as your codebase grows.

Forth: The programming language that writes itself: The Web Page
That can be very productive and clever, but be - and stay - aware that such polyglot solutions tend to be maintenance headaches in the longer run.
There is a really nice open source project out there that allows you to train your hearing and your sightreading, but it's written in the authors own language which in turn compiles to JavaScript and the headache to set up their toolchain is such that I haven't bothered fixing any of the bugs that I'm aware of (and there are plenty).
https://sightreading.training/
https://github.com/leafo/sightreading.training
It's written in a language called 'Moonscript':

Which compiles to Lua. Which compiles to JS.
Madness. Nice madness, but still, it stopped me from being a contributor.

Lua: The Little Language That Could
RE: the cost of switching at this point, what about languages that compile to Lua? Like https://moonscript.org/. That would let you keep the legacy code, no?

Trying to make a website with Lapis
In the case of Lapis, it is actually written in Moonscript, which needs a few more things.

- Using Lua with C++

Using other languages
There's also some languages made to compile straight to Lua: - MoonScript is the most popular Lua wrapper - it's built to be more Python-like, featuring indentation-based scopes, function calls without parentheses, lambda syntax, list comprehension, and much more. - Yuescript is a modern update to MoonScript that adds more features (I haven't used it myself, so I'm not entirely sure exactly how it differs from MS). - Teal is a version of Lua that adds static typing for better code standards.
