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.

What is the industry standard today in C++ to deploy REST microservices in Kubernetes?
In my past job, we used https://github.com/Stiffstream/restinio and absolutely loved it. It's not as active but it honestly didn't need much.
- What code/project you saw was both inspiring and maintainable?
-
What are some cool modern libraries you enjoy using?
I had a good experience using restinio for a small ASIO HTTP server recently.
-
Can I use C++ in the backend ?? Any frameworks there ??
It uses restinio https://github.com/Stiffstream/restinio with great success ;)
- Modern C++ Web API (Back-End Development)

Confused about beginning application development using c++. Pls help.
For networking, pick a networking library. Restinio is a fair choice for HTTP. But, again, feel free to pick others.

NodeJS vs Go for low memory usage
Want you're mind completely blown? Try re-writing in C++ using Restino: https://github.com/Stiffstream/restinio Your memory usage will be exponentially lower and your throughput will be exponentially higher. C++ REST frameworks have come of age and are flat out amazing.
You may find this worthwhile: https://github.com/Stiffstream/restinio/issues/101 FWIW, I used Restbed successfully for 3.5 years before switching personal projects to Restino. I've left the job that used Restbed, but I think they are still using it.

What does modern (good) API development look like and what are the best tools to use?
Contrary to the direction most people go, I've been writing REST APIs as C++ servers using two different fairly full featured C++ REST frameworks: first using https://github.com/Corvusoft/restbed and more lately using https://github.com/Stiffstream/restinio. These can be peers with any other server, while living on embedded and/or high compute devices for video encode/decode/analysis, deployed ML models, encryption for and remote process communications, model data collection and similar expensive or in-field processing. In both high compute and in-field-no-internet situations creating REST APIs in C++ enables speed and system controls not present in the majority of the mainstream REST frameworks. It's a big world, and here comes ubiquitous high compute...

cpprestsdk in maintenance mode
If you need an embedded C++ HTTP server then there are plenty of libraries/frameworks (in random order): Crow, RESTinio, Boost.Beast, cpp-httplib, http_backend, Pistache, RestBed, served, proxygen, Simple-Web-Server, drogon, oat++.

What C++ library do you wish existed but hasn’t been created yet?
Take a look at Wt Webtoolkit. It can do exactly this (and a lot more) https://www.webtoolkit.eu/wt

Nui C++ User Interface Library
How does this compare with WebToolkit?
- Has anyone embedded a web-UI into a C++ project?
-
Cheerp 3.0: The most advanced C++ compiler for the Web now permissively licensed
How is this much different than wt [1] or compiling qt to emscripten? Sincere question.
- Launch HN: Pynecone (YC W23) – Web Apps in Pure Python
- Uses of Rust and C++ that only one has?
-
Who is using C++ for web development?
https://www.webtoolkit.eu/wt (has support for HTTP/S)
Not sure who uses but there's an interesting toolkit for it: https://www.webtoolkit.eu/wt

Ask HN: What's the best source code you've read?
Linux Kernel source is very good.
Wt[0] source code is also good.
-
Ask HN: Who is using C++ as the main language for new project?
Apparently they're using Wt, "webtoolkit".
> Wt is a web GUI library in modern C++. Quickly develop highly interactive web UIs with widgets, without having to write a single line of JavaScript.
