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.

Sharing Saturday #496
Anyway the need is not complicated, I need both entry and exit functions from every state, optionally allowing these functions to be coroutines (that's special sauce but for later), and an explicit state transition table which also have a way to say that a state can be accessed at any point. Also allow states to be state machines, optional FSM hierarchies. If you ignore the coroutine stuff it's pretty standard features these days, except that - Boost.MSM is quite archaic now (it was so novel when it was first released...) although it allows most of the features I talked about, I just think it will complicate my code unneecessarilly; - Boost-Ext.SML (not Boost) is almost perfect except it doesnt have entry/exit functions on states for some reason. Also last time we (as in in livestream) tried it in prototypes it didnt compile on msvc XD - Boost-Ext.SML2 is even better but still doesnt have entry/exit functions although it's in the plans.

State machines with C++20 coroutines and Asio/Boost Async
Hello all. Being a huge fan of state machine and coroutines, I have been browsing around for examples of what other people do combine these two. I have been using boost-ext/sml for quite many projects and are quite happy about that. But when transitioning to code that relies on coroutines, I would like to write entry/exit/actions/guard methods that uses coroutines and where I can co_await on awaitables from Asio and more recently "Boost Async".

When Debug Symbols Get Large
I recently was troubleshooting a crash that backtraced through the boost::sml library [0]. The crash didn't actually have anything to do with the library, but it was used as the core event loop.
The backtrace -- as in, just the output from running `bt` in GDB -- was over a thousand wrapped lines long. There were ~5 stack frames that took up 200 lines of console each to print just the function name. That product's debug builds recently hit the 2GB line, which is enough that old versions of binutils complain.
I don't know what the solution is. There's some really neat stuff you can do with template metaprogramming, and in stripped release builds it compiles down extremely tiny. Plus the code is very clean to read. But it does feel like there isn't any kind of central vision for the C++ debugging experience, and bad interactions between highly-complex modern C++ typing, the compiler, and the debugger are probably only going to get worse unless somebody (the ISO committee? Vendors?) thinks really hard about debugging support.

[Boost::MSM] Huge Memory Usage Issue During Compilation
I'm a big fan of MSM but what you're experiencing is pretty normal for template-heavy libraries built on C++03 machinery (emulation of variadic templates is the usual culprit). It's probably not the answer you're hoping for, but the real solution is to switch to a library with more modern foundations. (I've been happily using [Boost::ext].SML for a few years but I'm reluctant to strongly recommend anything in particular since I haven't re-explored the problem space since I found it.)

State machine suggestion?
The Boost one that you mention, seems to be one that it's kinda old. A "successor" of sorts is Boost SML. I've not used it yet, but certainly the first impressions are very good.

What files from glm's github do I need to add to my emscripten project?
I am a greenhorn at graphics programming. I just made an app in OpenGL with C++ that I now need to change over to a browser app with WebGL. WebGL looks pretty cool but since my app does a lot of calculations I assumed I should keep the heavier calculating parts in C++ with emscripten ( which I am also just learning ). So looking at it, it just looks like glm is the only library I seriously need for my c++ code and that seems pretty cool because it is a header only app it says. But in the github there are a lot of folders and files so I am not sure which are indispensable or not. Any advice?

What is a file with the .i.hh extension such as myfile.i.hh used for in a C++ project?
GLM does it quite well, it has core includes then a detail folder with all the inl files that get added. https://github.com/g-truc/glm

Porting to metal?
I once ported an OpenGL code base over to Metal. For me, it was essential to do as much code sharing as possible. Because I was using the GLM library in that code base and generally found that library very useful I wanted to know whether I can use GLM with Metal. I had to do some research but it turned out it works really well, see here

Learning DirectX 12 in 2023
Alongside MiniEngine, you’ll want to look into the DirectX Toolkit. This is a set of utilities by Microsoft that simplify graphics and game development. It contains libraries like DirectXMesh for parsing and optimizing meshes for DX12, or DirectXMath which handles 3D math operations like the OpenGL library glm. It also has utilities for gamepad input or sprite fonts. You can see a list of the headers here to get an idea of the features. You’ll definitely want to include this in your project if you don’t want to think about a lot of these solved problems (and don’t have to worry about cross-platform support).
