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.

There are ways to bundle Python with your application using something like py2exe

How can I learn more about how to share the programs I've written with other people?
Then you can turn the python program to an actual executable, a normal .exe file that user just launches and uses. If you chose to use this way, look into PyInstaller or py2exe. The executables will be obviously bigger, I think at least PyInstaller pretty much just packages Python and your script into .exe to make it work, so every program would be quite big (as each program has its own Python packaged). I also heard the process of turning the scripts to .exe is sometimes a bit problematic if you use some fancy imports and you also might run into problems with architecture.

Should you write malware in C# or C++?
*fyi, you can use a tool like py2exe or PyInstaller to convert Python scripts into a Windows Executable.
- Am I crazy to use python for the simple-ish core game, expose data via Flask, UI via React, and Electron to make the executable??
- Blöde Frage, kann jedes Programm jeder Programmiersprache in eine exe gewandelt werden die dann auch auf jedem computer läuft?

How to make a c++ python extension?
The approach that I favour is to use Cython. The nice thing with this approach is that your code is still written as (almost) Python, but so long as you define all required types correctly it will automatically create the C extension for you. Early versions of Cython required using Cython specific typing (Python didn't have type hints when Cython was created), but it can now use Python's type hints.

Codon: Python Compiler
Just for reference,
* Nuitka[0] "is a Python compiler written in Python. It's fully compatible with Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, and 3.11."
* Pypy[1] "is a replacement for CPython" with builtin optimizations such as on the fly JIT compiles.
* Cython[2] "is an optimising static compiler for both the Python programming language and the extended Cython programming language... makes writing C extensions for Python as easy as Python itself."
* Numba[3] "is an open source JIT compiler that translates a subset of Python and NumPy code into fast machine code."
* Pyston[4] "is a performance-optimizing JIT for Python, and is drop-in compatible with ... CPython 3.8.12"

Any faster Python alternatives?
Profile and optimize the hotspots with cython (or whatever the cool kids are using these days... It's been a while.)
-
What exactly is 'JIT'?
JIT essentially means generating machine code for the language on the fly, either during loading of the interpreter (method JIT), or by profiling and optimizing hotspots (tracing JIT). The language itself can be statically or dynamically typed. You could also compile a dynamic language ahead of time, for example, cython.
