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.

CMake+Conan2 project template example repositories?
I had been using the project_options repository to bootstrap most of my CMake repositories, but it appears like this is not able to handle Conan2 (due to the usage cmake-conan, on a pre-2.0-compatible version of that repo).

The pool of talented C++ developers is running dry
- flags like "-fsanitize=address,leak,undefined -fanalyzer -Wthread-safety -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=" should be baked in to a default "dev"/"debug" mode newbies shouldn't need to know/think about
Did you try project_options[0]? I recommend it to all newbies like me. Just set the "enable_developer_mode=true" and you get all that stuff for free.
> - I have to Google what headers cstd/std stuff comes from half the time
In Clion you can cmd+click on the symbol and it leads to the header.
Another recommended resource is https://github.com/cpp-best-practices/

I am finding it incredibly hard to write software in CPP. Where can I get a book for software development in CPP ?
Was checking that as well, can't find it indeed. I would recommend looking into the following: https://github.com/cpp-best-practices/gui_starter_template

Collecting the best C++ practices
gui_starter_template. This is a C++ Best Practices GitHub template for getting up and running with C++ quickly.

Not adopting newer C++ standards
Next to language versions, spend time setting up your build system (CMake?) with all bells and whistles. You want unit tests, clang-tidy, include-what-you-use, sanitizers, fuzzing, clang-format, package managers. Just take a look at https://github.com/cpp-best-practices/gui_starter_template

Good repos for beginners to browse that follow best modern C++ practices (including testing, static analysis etc...)
https://github.com/cpp-best-practices/gui_starter_template from Jason Turner (aka lefticus) is quite a popular one (2.1k stars in Github)

The pool of talented C++ developers is running dry
I actually just tried to play around with what seems to be a "modern c++" boilerplate project.
It uses CMake, conan for packaging, clang-tidy and cpp-check, and has templates for fuzz and unit testing[1].
I found it because qtcreator and kdevelop were weirdly clunky and created partly broken qt projects and I figured I wanted to add a package manager and qt to the mix.
The template looks really fancy, but it's so incredibly slow, to the point of being unusable.
It's a ramble yes. But the point is modern C++ tools seem to have added some niceties to the language, but they also brought more of the main C++ issues, i.e. slow compile times and nasty boilerplate in the build process. Yes, I realize CMake isn't modern and there are a bunch of new build tools.
