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.

What is the industry standard today in C++ to deploy REST microservices in Kubernetes?
My favourite was Microsoft's cpprestsdk, but for some reason now is in maintenance mode, I don't know why, so it's hard to suggest it for new projects. A nice alternative is restc-cpp, that's has a good high-level interface, if this is what you want.

Have there been any attempts to build a REST API service on top of either Boost.asio or Boost.beast?
While it's not based on Boost Asio or Beast, Microsoft maintains a SDK for developing REST api's using C++, aptly named the C++ REST SDK. Here you can find the Github page. It pretty much covers everything you'd come to expect from a modern webserver package. It does come with a steep learning curve however.

>But is it truly practical to use in 'higher-abstraction' apps like web or mobile?
Yes absolutely. Once you become familiar with the language the barrier is not that high. Familiarity trumps everything else.
That said, since i am not a Web/mobile developer i had collected some resources to help me learn how to use C++ for Web/Mobile apps, you may find it useful;

cpprestsdk in maintenance mode
I was starting a project that needs to read data with rest API and I'd like to use cpprestsdk from Microsoft. But it's readme says that's in maintenance mode and it's not recommended for new projects... I'd like to know why it's in maintenance mode, and if it will be abandoned. Also, if there's some equivalent library for cpp, instead of creating the business logic from scratch, i.e. with boost::beast.
What are some alternatives?
