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 was used to build C++ programs before Cmake?
Ninja showed real promise for a while, but then CMake grew up and people stopped seeing a reason to leave it behind.

I have spent two whole work days trying to install GLEW
warning: Starting with the September 2023 release, the default triplet for vcpkg libraries will change from x86-windows to the detected host triplet (x64-windows).

Installer script for CMake, Ninja, and Meson
I thought I would share my custom installer script for the latest GitHub versions of CMake, Ninja, and Meson.

Building and Running Pidgin and Finch 3
Now that you have your build system all generated you can go ahead and build everything. By default Meson will use Ninja as the build tool. Ninja is similar to Make but much much faster. You can also generate additional build systems but that's outside of the scope of this post.

How to write unit tests in C++ relying on non-code files?
This is a problem that Bazel (https://bazel.build) solves in a very convenient way. You can just keep using the paths relative to the repository root, and as long as you properly declare your test needs that file it will access it without problems. Or you can use the runfile libraries to access them too.

My first Software Release using GitHub Release
When doing research for this lab exercise I looked at both vcpkg and conan. Both are package managers that would automate the installation and configuration of my program with its dependencies. However, when it came to releasing and sharing my program my options were limited. For example, the central public registry for conan packages is conan-center, but these packages are curated and the process is very involved. There was no way conan-center would accept a class project like mine. Alternatively, I could host a conan package on a public Artifactory repository, but accessing the package requires users to add the repository to their conan remote. This already sounded like too many steps to expect regular users to follow - I already haven't setup any conan remotes, there's no way I could expect regular users to know about conan remotes, let alone have conan installed on their system. After discussing with people online and consulting my instructor, I ultimately decided to do a GitHub release. However, in the future I was encouraged to look into using CMake or bazel.

Declarative Gradle is a cool thing I am afraid of: Maven strikes back
NOTE: I won’t mention SBT and Leiningen here because, with all due respect, they are niche build tools. I also won’t discuss Kobalt for the same reason (besides, it’s no longer actively maintained). Additionally, I won’t touch upon Bazel and Buck in this context, mainly because I’m not very familiar with them. If you have insights or comments about these tools, please feel free to share them in the comments 👇

Bazel solves this really nicely, I know some people have strong opinions on it but I cannot recommend it enough

Go Dependency management in large company projects - How do you do it?
I know that some projects like cockroach use custom build tools like bazel. But we actually really like to use to be able to build our projects simply with the great go toolchain and don't really aim to dive deep into custom build solutions.

What was used to build C++ programs before Cmake?
Bazel is a Google project that showcases first-class support for the major languages Google uses (C++, Java, Go), and it'd probably have replaced CMake if it weren't written in Java, which brought a host of technical challenges. Then those challenges were fixed and Oracle threatened to bring legal challenges instead.
What are some alternatives?
