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.

I'm open-sourcing my game engine
They use (uWebSockets)[https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets], which was written in C++, but has an interface to use in NodeJS. It's been really performant for me in my simple tests compared to other popular websocket libs that slow down fairly quickly.

8 Best WebSocket Libraries For Node
µWebSockets, pronounced as "microWebSocket”, is a WebSocket library written in C++ and has Node.js bindings. Its design focuses on being efficient and scalable, making it ideal for applications that require high concurrency and low latency.

What's the hot tech stack these days?
Websockets are also pretty valuable for updating the page in real time, there are servers in many languages. I'm a big fan of https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets which is C++ but also has JS bindings to use with Node.js.

Nuklear – A single-header ANSI C immediate mode cross-platform GUI library
Not exaclty -- it looks like it's pretty overkill for my needs
I'm looking for something more like websocketpp[0], or even just grpc without a requisite proxy. uWebsockets looks really promising, being header only, but in the fine print requires a runtime library. unfortunately, none of that ecosystem seems to use cmake, making integrating it that much more of a pain.
why use cpp for this, I'm sure some HNer will ask. the ray tracer itself is using cuda, that's why. I've also debated
- running it as a grpc server and having some proxy in a more web-accessible language
- creating python bindings and using python to make a websocket/http server for it
neither of those are out of the question, but they're not my first choices, because I'd like to keep the build & execution simple. introducing dependencies, especially other executables, is in conflict with that.
i don't need anything particularly scalable -- a threaded implementation, or one using select() would be fine, if not preferable.

Socketify.py - Maybe the fastest web framework for Python and PyPy
We discover a really fast, small, and well maintained C++ Library called uNetworking/uWebSockets, but no C API available, so we create and adapt the full C API from uNetworking/uWebSockets and will integrate libuv powered fetch and file IO, this same C API is used by Bun

uWebSockets
Cool little library, I'm using it, but author has an ego the size of Wolfram's. This is just one snippet, there are many if you rummage through the docs and issues:
> In the 1970s, programming was an elite's task. Today programming is done by uneducated "farmers" and as a result, the care for smart algorithms, memory usage, CPU-time usage and the like has dwindled in comparison. Just look at, how many web developers represent time - it is not uncommon for web developers to send an entire textual representation of time as 30-something actual letters inside a JSON document with an actual textual key.
https://github.com/uNetworking/uWebSockets/blob/master/misc/...
For those who didn’t know, uWebSockets is one of the reasons for Bun’s high performance in server benchmarks [1], not just JavaScriptCore.

Ask HN: Nobody interested an open hardware iPod Nano?
So here is the thing: The iPod Nano 7g is from 2012. I've seen many people designing custom PCBs and releasing Kickstarter projects for custom audio players[5] or game handhelds[6]. I know Rockbox (which is great, but its lacks support for Wifi and Bluetooth AFAIK and just does not compete with the UX of iPod's audio book features in my opinion) and iPod Linux. 10 years ago someone even reverse engineered the iPod Nano 6g display[3].
Although I'm not skilled enough in PCB-Design, after some research I found the Lilygo T-Display S3 Pro[4] based on ESP32 S3, which would be the size, but lacks audio and OS. There is also the Mango PI CyberPad[7], which looked interesting, but maybe is already too clunky.
Programming wise, LVGL[8] may be a good framework to develop a modern and efficient UI - at least it looks promising.
So, why is nobody interested in recreating an iPod nano like device? It should be doable with modern tech, but Phones have completely taken over the marked...

Co-ordinates when programming a screen - trial and error?
I haven’t used these personally myself, but have a look at using LVGL with Squareline. I used photoshop for designing layouts for my (simple) screens in the past and the only issues I’ve had regarding replicating my designs iirc was with text (as you mentioned) and rounded corners.
