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.

Brax vs TDS for differentiable rigid body dynamics
I need differentiable rigid body dynamics because I want to do nonlinear MPC. One library that can do this is C++ is Tiny Differentiable Simulator https://github.com/erwincoumans/tiny-differentiable-simulator. As I understand it, this software uses a C++ auto-diff library and code generation to create CUDA kernels to compute fast derivatives in parallel. This seems pretty fast because it's C++. Another option is Brax https://github.com/google/brax. Brax uses JAX which I've never used, but from what I've seen online, JAX is popular for researchers and probably very good.

Optick: C++ Profiler for Games
Yes, Chrome about://tracing is great to visualize your custom timing data. Happy used for the last 5 years in Bullet and recent physics engines, including events across tracing multiple threads:

What Programming language/library to use for 3D visualisation of a robot arm?
Drake (and also tiny-differentiable-simulator that I know of) are using meshcat and it seems neat to me

What Programming language/library to use for 3D visualisation of a robot arm?
There are a bunch of kinematic simulation tools built in Python. Klampt is one I've used that has good documentation. It does have the ability to make a rendering of your robot moving while doing forward/inverse kinematics.
What are some alternatives?
