The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

Flex scanner memory leak help
I have a demo project that fixes a lot of the default insanities.
-
Advice for a first-time designer of my own original programming language? Presently writing the interpreter!
I have an old demo project that demonstrates most of that for flex/bison, but this is C/C++ oriented so might not be super applicable for you.
-
Should there be many hardcoded enums for terminals, non terminals, DFA, productions or a txt/csv file processing for compiler initialization? Is it bad to use global variables in the C code for compiler?
It's just unfortunate that flex and bison have bad defaults due to historical compatibility with lex and yacc. If you're using them I have a demo project that tweaks the defaults toward sanity, though I haven't updated it for recent warnings.
-
Doubt on building a tree using LEX and YACC
I made a demo project that ties them together. I'm pretty sure at least one of the fixes was due to header cycle problems, but I haven't touched it for a while. (note also that the demo was fully warning-clean at the time, but there may be new warnings since)
-
Simple question on compiler and syntax rules
I made a demo project that avoids several historical annoyances with Flex and Bison - in particular, I made it warnings-clean (though I haven't updated it recently), and I avoid global state.
-
Getting Lex + Yacc to recognize keywords
I have a demo project that enables all of the non-default options that you really should be using in all new projects. Note that the demo doesn't demonstrate meaningful grammars, just shows how to arrange the surrounding code and makefile.
-
Declaring yylex() and yyerror() in 2022
I have a demo project that twiddles most of the important knobs.
-
How to create an AST from bash in c?
Bash is a really complicated language. Redirections and such are simple; they are just tokenization, and any lexer/parser tutorial should get you there (I have a demo project using flex/bison).
-
what would you use to write a parser in 2021?
Bison can be configured to avoid every single one of those problems. I use reentrant versions (both with and without push parsing) in my demo project. I admit I didn't bother with named references or cleaning up after errors.
-
Practical parsing with Flex and Bison
a lot of the things that people hate about flex/bison is actually just their defaults for compatibility with lex/yacc, which can be changed. I have a demo project that does some of the things: https://github.com/o11c/parser-demo
