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.

A header-only C implementation of C++ <algorithm>
Well, I do like mine better, which is closer to the STL, and for all containers. https://github.com/rurban/ctl/

A simple hash table in C
search for htable or hashtable in thousands of open source projects. only a minority has worse hashtables than this one (clisp, perl5 e.g.).
For better ones I would point to my linked list implementation: https://github.com/rurban/ctl/blob/master/ctl/unordered_set.... (because it has various security policies, nobody else has)

Popular Data Structure Libraries in C ?
C Container Template Library, Rurban Variant (CTL) - The page for unordered_map reads "Implementation in work still".

C Template Library
There is also the rurban variant variant of CTL which is more complete.

Better C Generics: The Extendible _Generic
The prototype of CC used this mechanism to provide a generic API for types instantiated via templates (so basically like other container libraries, but with an extendible-_Generic-based API laid over the top of the generated types). This approach has some significant advantages over the approach CC now uses, but I got a bit obsessed with eliminating the need to manually instantiate templates.

How different is C++ from C? Contrasting simple Unix SORT programs
But the most common that I know of is this one: https://github.com/tylov/STC. There's also this one mentioned above https://rurban.github.io/ctl/
- C++ containers but in C
- STL in C

On HASH-TABLEs performance
I'm also working on a proper one, but got sidetracked. https://github.com/rurban/ctl/blob/hmap/ctl/swisstable.h

Macro to automatically unlock a mutex in a block (ansi c)
This technique is often used to implement RAII in C. See example in Standard Template Containers. The library delivers STL-like functionality to C.
-
Is using void* considered "evil" in C just as it is in C++?
I'd say it's evil, but quite understandable very commonly used because there are no built-in alternatives in C. I basically never use void* in user-code, simply because there are no need for it when using a templating technique, like in my STC library. Even in the implementation of STC itself, void* is hardly used, if at all.

[Noob Question] How do C programmers get around not having hash maps?

Should I use templates or stick with rewriting code?
This is more or less how C-ish templates are implemented in STC library.

What’s the right hash table API?
As the author of a STL-like templated C container library, I had many of the exact same thoughts when implementing the unordered map. In fact, I also changed to many of the suggestions here, rather than consistently following the C++ umap API. E.g.

What's the fastest high level language?
Sure it is. C misses a proper efficient generic standard/container library, like my https://github.com/stclib/STC, but that is irrelevant.

So what's the best data structures and algorithms library for C?
Some data structure and algorithm library in C enable the (optional) separation between the interface of the container (which is expanded in your header) and its implementation (which is expanded in your source), like STC.
What are some alternatives?
rnnoise - Recurrent neural network for audio noise reduction
ctl - The C Template Library
Klib - A standalone and lightweight C library
roost - Proof of Concept for Eventsourced backend
mlib - Library of generic and type safe containers in pure C language (C99 or C11) for a wide collection of container (comparable to the C++ STL).
