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.

is it ok to put library source code folder in your project folder to build them together?
Example from one of my projects: https://github.com/jgaa/nsblast/blob/main/cmake/3rdparty.cmake

REST APIs using C++. (Is this even done much?)
Yahat-cpp: Simple HTTP/API server library for use in C++ micro-services. This was just some code that kept evolving inside various projects, so I distilled it to a separate project to make it simpler to maintain. For an example of a real server using it, you cal look at nsblast, a new DNS server I'm implementing.

Has anyone embedded a web-UI into a C++ project?
I hope this question is not too off-topic here. I'm a bit lost. I'm working on a C++ project (a DNS server). It exposes a REST API via an embedded, very simple HTTP server. I have added swagger to document the API, and to test it from a browser. Now, I want to provide a simple web-UI to the application. I don't want this to become a major task, and ideally I want either a UI that lives as some simple js/css/http files in the browser, (so it can be served as a static website on the server-side like swagger) - or some simple to use back-end library in C++ that can drive the web-UI. In short, I hope to find a way to do this where I can have a POC ready in <= a week, and where I don't have to spend lot's of time learning some js framework.

Ask HN: Who is using C++ as the main language for new project?
I'm using C++ for most of my projects, because I like it. It's also what I do for a living. The latest new open source project I initiated is a dns server, nsblast, using rocksdb for storage. https://github.com/jgaa/nsblast
The (side) project I have put most effort into in the last year is k8deployer, a helm like utility that can deploy simple and complex applications in kubernetes with minimal effort. https://github.com/jgaa/k8deployer
In these projects I don't use other languages. C++ is the only language where I easily get into "flow".

Experience using crow as web server
I looked at oatpp and drogon, which are both great, but feel too high-level for my purposes. I tried drogon and got something working, but it feels like too much for my requirements, as in particular I'd like to slot in my choice of Json and message-body handling. C.f. the simple approach in Crow, which I easily understand and build on.

What isn't cpp used on web servers as much as other languages?
With the right libraries, C++ could be a good fit for applications that want to expose a fast web API to things that need lots of compute (simulators, for instance) or I/O (interactive editing of large datasets). Projects like Oat++ and Crow give me hope that we might see such an ecosystem develop.

REST APIs using C++. (Is this even done much?)
Lots of other options have been mentioned, but I'll throw Oat++ into the mix. I used it for this purpose and it was reasonably painless.

How to use C++ as the backend for web dev?
Maybe use something like https://oatpp.io to create a REST API: C++ in the backend with this library to create a REST server, and the JavaScript/TypeScript frontend to ask for the information.

making a web server in c++?
I've used OATPP ( https://github.com/oatpp/oatpp ) which worked nicely for setting up simple rest interfaces. Supports things like swagger & websockets out of the box. It's also on Conan which is nice if you use cmake. I can't speak to it's performance but it has about a 1mb binary size footprint.
- Not mine but the pain of c++

learning c++: looking for structured project tutorial (web app/api? or other?)
As for your web problem, I have only used https://oatpp.io/ in the past but I'm sure there are more frameworks like that on the internet.
What are some alternatives?
restc-cpp - Modern C++ REST Client library
drogon - Drogon: A C++14/17 based HTTP web application framework running on Linux/macOS/Unix/Windows [Moved to: https://github.com/drogonframework/drogon]
