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.

Add extra stuff to a “standard” encoding? Sure, why not
I actually went through all projects listed in [1] because I remember this very quirk. It turns out that there are many such libraries that have two variants of encode/decode functions, where the second variant prepends a varint length. In my brief inspection there do exist a few libraries with only the second variant (e.g. Rust quick-protobuf), which is legitimately problematic [2].
But if the project in question was indeed protobuf.js (see loeg's comments), it clearly distinguishes encode/decode vs. encodeDelimited/decodeDelimited. So I believe the project should not be blamed, and the better question would be why so many people chose to add this exact helper. Well, because Google itself also had the same helper [3]! So at this point protobuf should just standardize this simple framing format (with an explicitly different name though), instead of claiming that protobuf has no obligation to define one.

How we reverse-engineered Google Maps pagination
Google Maps URLs contain the pb parameter contains string-encoded Protobuf. The format is the same as for the data parameter in the browser URL on Google Maps. It contains !-separated values. There are several answers on StackOverflow, gists on GitHub, some blog posts about decoding, and even a kinda official guide on reverse engineering protobuf, but none of this touches pagination.

Add extra stuff to a “standard” encoding? Sure, why not
Seems like protoduf.js has the exact same methods as Google’s implementations with the same names (encode/decode to not prepend with length, encodeDelimited/decodeDelimited for prepending length). It is hard for me to say they’re adding to the standard when they’re just replicating Google’s libraries.

Question about compressing JSON in multiplayer position updates
If it really is a problem, then another option is to use Protobus or Message Pack for serializing (maybe into base64?).

Looking for ideas on how to implement serialization and deserialization between C++ and Javascript
I use protocol buffers. protobufjs translates into json.

GRPC Gateway API Client?
I have tried GRPC gateway generation tools: - PBJS: https://github.com/protobufjs/protobuf.js/
- Protobuf-ES: The Protocol Buffers TypeScript/JavaScript runtime we all deserve
- Did I understand the basic concept of website development with Node Js correctly?
- how can i use protobuf with sveltekit, please?
-
is there any startup or famous web app using grpc/grpc-web for their frontend
We use https://github.com/improbable-eng/grpc-web for the server part with https://github.com/protobufjs/protobuf.js on the frontend.
What are some alternatives?
riegeli - Riegeli/records is a file format for storing a sequence of string records, typically serialized protocol buffers.
snappy - DEPRECATED - please use https://github.com/Brooooooklyn/snappy. Nodejs bindings to Google's Snappy compression library
nix-init - Generate Nix packages from URLs with hash prefetching, dependency inference, license detection, and more [maintainer=@figsoda]
pbf - A low-level, lightweight protocol buffers implementation in JavaScript.
imstr - Immutable strings, in Rust.
compactr - Schema based serialization made easy
msgpack - MessagePack is an extremely efficient object serialization library. It's like JSON, but very fast and small.
Vicis - Presentation and transformation layer for data output in RESTful APIs.
flapigen-rs - Tool for connecting programs or libraries written in Rust with other languages
TypeScript - TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript that compiles to clean JavaScript output.
Protobuf - Protocol Buffers - Google's data interchange format
