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.

Are there any cross-platform high-level fully programmatic mobile frameworks like Apple's SceneKit, SpriteKit, and GameplayKit that do not depend on special IDEs or visual editors?
good engines for C++ that meet your requirements https://github.com/u3d-community/U3D https://github.com/rbfx/rbfx i highly recommend taking a look at rbfx, U3D doesn't have all the fancy features that rbfx has but deep down they are the same engine almost. They are forks of Urho3D, a mature engine that has existed from the year of 2011/2010.
- The Icculus Microgrant is giving out 250 dollar grants to open source projects, please brag about your project(s) in this thread so I can see them!

Searching for Reliable Cross-Platform Rendering Framework (C/C++)
Urho3D is dead. There is the U3D project which is essentially a maintenance fork made after the original project was taken over by a crazy Russian nationalist. There is also rbfx which is a progression fork that is working to make improvements such as to the PBR rendering pipeline, making it work with C# if desired, as well as rebuilding and improving the editor. The original Urho3D is soon to be even more dead than currently, since the discourse forum is set for archival and deactivation at 4:00 AM tomorrow morning.

As of 2023, what is the state of things regarding C/C++ 3D graphics libraries for the web?
Go to: https://github.com/rbfx/rbfx, they have a discord but IIRC it's basically just a CMake build so you flip the flags to say "WebGL" or "Emscripten" or w/e and CMake will basically tell you everything that's wrong.
- rbfx: Game engine with (optional) C# support and WYSIWYG editor.
- Cross-platform open-source game engine with C# support and Unity-like editor

Unity merges with IronSource
If anyone is looking for a Unity alternative, the guys at rbfx are doing a great job revamping the old Urho3D codebase: https://github.com/rbfx/rbfx
It has good C# scripting support, a nice editor and modern rendering pipeline.

Game engine for programmars
You could try Urho3D or its newer fork rbfx.

Preferred game engine
I use an engine called rbfx which is a fork of the Urho3D engine. A lot of it is just the fact that I've been using it for over a decade, so I am comfortable with it. I'm a programmer, not really comfortable with integrated editor engines such as Unity or Godot, and the easy C++ extensibility of the engine appeals to me. Plus it's decently powerful, and well supported on a lot of platforms (I build for Windows, WebGL, and very occasionally RPi for the most part) and is open source to satisfy that stubbornly libertarian side of my character.

C-Macs – a pure C macOS application
The linked project doesn't use any ObjC files at all. SDL2 has a bunch of Cocoa files[1] so you did use Cocoa even if unknowingly.

Revert "video: Prefer Wayland over X11 (take 2)"
Correct. It's explained here:
https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/pull/9345#issuecomment-201...
XWayland has special hooks into the compositors that normal wayland clients don't get.

BBC Basic returns on multiple platforms, open sourced
If that app ran in a 640x480 mode, memory accesses would be just as fast as the VGA applications 25 years ago, correct?
I think there's a lot more going on than that. Here's SDL's current pixel access code:

Games! How they write code for SDL (+ interview with the creator)
We use the code examples throughout the article. The ellipsis characters "...." in the code were added by the author of the article. You can find the source files on the official GitHub of libsdl. In addition, each fragment has a reference to a specific area in the code. By the time this article is published, many errors will have already been fixed thanks to the issues we opened (for example, here and there). However, the links in the examples point exactly to the code you see in this article. Not only do we enjoy teasing developers but we also like making their projects a little bit better!

Chip8 emulator
It's not that difficult, I recently started learning to use graphics APIs myself. OpenGL is for linux, etc., directx for windows and vulkan for all platforms. I read through a bunch of forums yesterday and decided to go for vulkan (here is a link to the sdk) for my next small projects because it can run on all platforms. I would recommend to watch a basic tutorial series (like this one) for the graphics api itself to get an understanding of whats going on. And on top of that I use SDL2 for eventhandling and ImGui for the graphical user interface. Here is a link to a guide for setting up vulkan on your platform in case you would go for it.
