Our great sponsors
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.

C++'s smaller cleaner language
I will certainly admit that variadic generics and default initializers would be nice in some situations. For example there have been proposals to make #[derive(Default)] support default initializers, and I have a side project I could clean up a bit with variadic impls: https://github.com/rpjohnst/dejavu/blob/main/gml/src/vm/bind.rs. But it seems to balance out overall and I don't personally experience a need to write a bunch more code, let alone just to satisfy the compiler.

C++'s smaller cleaner language
For instance, maybe I'm just overestimating how verbose C++ would have been, or maybe I managed a particularly concise Rust AOC, but my solutions haven't been bad at all. See last year's, with no dependencies outside the standard library: https://github.com/rpjohnst/aoc2021/tree/main/src/bin
