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.

Good resources for learning C in depth?
AddressSanitizer is really useful, it's similar to Valgrind but has much lower overhead.
-
Memory Allocators
And if you're up for it, I'd further recommend adding some ways to deal with buffer overflows in debug builds. The way I deal with this is by using Address-Sanitizer's manual poisoning api. Bonus point if you leave additional poisoned space between allocations so off by one errors are likely to end up in a poisoned region instead of nearby allocation.

2023 Stack Overflow Survey: Rust is the most admired programming language, making it the most loved language for 8 years in a row
It also doesn't hurt that Miri can find many kinds of unsafe violations even in unsafe blocks. Zig may get something like this one day, but even if it does, checking things at runtime is not a substitute for compile time -- the C++ Sanitizers haven't exactly solved the safety story for C++ even over a decade later.

This is where stuff like ASan is really useful.

how do I check my library for memory leaks?

Is malloc_trim() safe to use?
Have you tried using tools like ASAN/LSAN or valgrind to confirm that there are indeed no memory leaks?

Is anyone using coroutines seriously?
I am using concurrencpp for my project. What I like about it is that it's basically a thread pool factory with coroutines. It allows for better structuring / organizing of multithreaded work. So for me the main advantage of coroutines is that the code looks easier to follow

Do you think the current asynchronous models (executors, senders) are too complicated and really we just need channels and coroutines running on a thread pool?
I agree. I use concurrencpp for the exact use case you described - coroutines running on simple-to-understand-executors which return some asynchronous pipe for communication.
- concurrencpp version 0.1.6 has been released!
-
What happens if you co_await a std::future, and why is it a bad idea? - The Old New Thing
If you look at concurrencpp, you can control exactly where and how coroutines are resumed, using executors.

Header-only C++14 quality thread pool
Hi, I am looking for a header-only C++14 (or lower) quality thread pool. Ideally, it would be similar to BS::thread_pool but in C++14. Most of them I find on GitHub are bloated (e.g. concurrencpp) or have many open Issues. Ideal usage would be similar to:

Good repos for beginners to browse that follow best modern C++ practices (including testing, static analysis etc...)
I use concurrencpp for my asynchronous code and the repo is written in modern cpp, with tests, sanitizers and what not.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing sanitizers and concurrencpp you can also consider the following projects:
miri - An interpreter for Rust's mid-level intermediate representation
libunifex - Unified Executors
spdlog - Fast C++ logging library.
asio-grpc - Asynchronous gRPC with Asio/unified executors
xeus-cling - Jupyter kernel for the C++ programming language

PhotonLibOS - Probably the fastest coroutine lib in the world!
Catch - A modern, C++-native, test framework for unit-tests, TDD and BDD - using C++14, C++17 and later (C++11 support is in v2.x branch, and C++03 on the Catch1.x branch)
coost - A tiny boost library in C++11.
