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.

Ask HN: Resources to learn generative art programming?
Start by copying some existing example code and running it locally, then edit it and see what changes. Comment pieces out, look at the results. Change magic numbers to understand the effect. It probably has some calls to a random number generator in it; add more calls to the random number generator.
There are lots of examples bundled with Proce55ing, on Shadertoy, on bl.ocks.org, on ObservableHQ, on Jared Tarbell's website, in the Coding Train vlog, etc. My own repo of examples using Python and PyGame is at https://github.com/kragen/pyconar-talk, but I've also done examples like http://canonical.org/~kragen/sw/dev3/tweetfract.html with (you have to click on the invisible to see it) and http://canonical.org/~kragen/sw/dev3/plotiir.html. Start with small things.
There's probably some kind of awesome example repo out there for deepdream ANN stuff but I don't know what to recommend.
But that's just where to start. Once you're doing stuff you'll want to understand what you're doing and learn about more techniques (algorithmic, software design, and interfaces to libraries and devices) so you can expand your range. There's lots of resources out there (Tarbell in particular has given an hour lecture you can find on YouTube about what techniques he finds useful) but I can suggest:
∙ Many instances of the same thing that differ by incrementing a variable. For example, you can create 64 particles that move from point A to point B at successive points in time 30 milliseconds apart, or at the same point in time at 64 different velocities, or 64 Bezier curves from point A to point B that start at 64 angles evenly spaced around a circle.
∙ Adding randomness to things. Adding randomness to pixel colors gives you "graininess"; adding randomness to object positions gives you spatial dispersion or, if the randomness varies over time, jittering; adding randomness to the angles of different objects gives you visual variety.

I'm starting to get tired
Since you have C# experience, take this time to learn more about C++ while you continue to look. While yes, it is very easy to write bad code, it's not a huge deal since you just graduated and are just hacking around. Plus there are a lot of helpers these days to make writing bad code a little less likely.A former mentor of mine gifted me "C++ Without Fear" by Brian Overland which I can recommend. It's not too expensive, I think it was $25 or something like that, likely less used. Also comes in E-book form.If you'd like a gentler introduction to C++, may I recommend openFrameworks?

I know C++. What game engine should I use?
I recently heard of openFrameworks which should make it pretty easy to make your game. It handles putting together a bunch of other libraries and window management so you can focus on drawing some shapes on the screen and handling user input. Sounds like love2d but all C++.

I just published a new art+code tutorial video walking thru making #generative #drawing with Catmull Rom curves in #openFrameworks
let me know if I can help out - also checkout the forum at openframeworks.cc - the people there are very friendly and helpful - especially with people that are completely new to oF...

Nannou – An open-source creative-coding framework for Rust
I mean, https://www.libcinder.org and https://openframeworks.cc have been mainstays of the creative coding industry for a long time now. A Rust take on the problem shouldn't be too surprising.
