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.

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.

Any C# Engines/Frameworks that aren't Unity, Cryengine, Godot etc.

3D game engine for lower end pcs
rbfx is a fork of it with similar usage.
-
2D game framework/engine that is mostly code driven (not GUI-driven)
Urho3D, rbfx

Godot support for 3D is too primitive, and Unity has become a wild mess over the years. Is Unreal Engine the only remaining option for 3D projects?
You might give rbfx a look. It is an actively developed fork of Urho3D that has pretty decent, and actively developed, 3D rendering.

Introduction to JavaScript: Empowering Web Development with Interactivity
Versatility: JavaScript is not limited to web browsers. It's used in a variety of environments, including mobile app development (using frameworks like React Native), game development (using libraries like Phaser), and even serverless computing (using platforms like AWS Lambda).

A developer portfolio as a 2D top-down walking simulator
This reminds me of my first real dev job, 10y ago, making small facebook games with https://phaser.io it was actually kind of fun now that I think back.

Aftermath of switching from VSCode to Neovim
Is it worth it? I think while attempting to create a game engine with the Canvas API and vanilla JavaScript. (I quickly ditched that idea and started using PhaserJS)

Phaser: A fast, fun and free open source HTML5 game framework
I didn't try to build anything with Phaser, but I evaluated it a bit when trying to pick a game engine for a 2D web game.
The tech didn't impress me that much, but it also seemed like the most mature 2D game engine available in JS.
Notably, Phaser 4 was announced ~four years ago and was an attempt to get the project written natively in TypeScript. It looks pretty dead in the water - https://github.com/phaserjs/phaser and having a "best effort" TypeScript experience layered onto Phaser 3 didn't excite me.
Additionally, with browsers gaining support for WebGPU, I expect any game engine worth their snuff to begin rapidly adopting support for WebGPU. As best I can tell, any hope of Phaser supporting WebGPU is lumped into Phaser 4, so... not much to say there.
Overall, it was a little tough for me to tell if I was being overly critical and viewing a mature product as a ghost town, but that's the impression I took away from it.
As far as I can tell, BabylonJS is king in town for a TypeScript game engine, but its focus is 3D experiences. I didn't find an especially compelling 2D game engine. I ended up making a prototype using React + PixiJS + React-Pixi, but that was hardly an engine and had significant performance issues.
Now I am building in Rust with Bevy. It's slow going, creating UI elements sucks right now, but the underlying tech is super solid and I feel good about what I write and what I learn even if I'm dismayed at the pace in which I am creating.
