The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

Method overloading error in 2022 and I don't know why.
Local functions do not support overloading
-
Why does foreach on arrays and strings get lowered into a while loop that ignores IEnumerable, even though both classes implement it?
Honestly, I don't have a clue why these would be different. I found the relevant Roslyn code here. You can see on line 719 that this is definitely intentional:
- .Net 6.0 - The new Program.cs "flat" style - too implicit/magic?
-
Why is Python so popular?

How to call a variable from a string, if that make sense lol
Why not use Roslyn Scripting…you can pretty much do any kind of dynamic evaluation with this and it does not require any reflection. https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn/blob/main/docs/wiki/Scripting-API-Samples.md you can add the support via a Nuget.

What’s the maximum number of arguments for method in C# and in .NET?
It was discussed at one point: https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn/issues/5058
-
What parsing techniques do you use to support a good language server?
It must be a fairly large echo chamber since it has room for Clang, GCC, V8, OpenJDK, Roslyn, etc. (The Zend parser for PHP seems to use some flavor of YACC, but given PHP, I don't know if that strengthens or weakens my point.)

Why is no-one using Roslyn token-based code generation with Source Generators?
I'm planning to rewrite all of our company's old T4-based codegen tools into Source Generators. I've been looking at how other Source Generators are implemented and what surprised me is that everyone seems to assemble the output code manually as text with string builders or at best some simple templating engine (eg. Scriban). I expected that I would see a lot of projects assembling their output code from Roslyn tokens and then using Roslyn's formatter to produce the actual code that can be emitted into the output file(s), like this article demonstrates. No-one seem to be doing that though. Why?

Actix Web v4.0 (Rust)
Clearly nobody ever manages to use this Go thing with over 700: https://github.com/golang/go/issues. Or .net, over 5000 issues for the compiler alone: https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn. I'd guess stuff like Java, glibc would be similar if they used github
