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.

What are some cool modern libraries you enjoy using?
nlohmann's json is ergonomic but is slow. I use this lib when I need speed.

Getting started with Boost in 2022
Not a huge fan of it. But it does the job. I prefer either the lib I maintain: UniValue or the ubiquitous nlohmann.
- What JSON library do you suggest?

UniValue JSON Library for C++17 (and above)
Ok, updated. I added some examples to the readme. https://github.com/cculianu/univalue

How to convert an enum to string in C++
I really like better_enums instead of magic_enums. There’s no limit on enum size with it: http://aantron.github.io/better-enums/
It was heavily used at a former employer of mine, so definitely a solid production-ready solution.

What C++ library do you wish existed but hasn’t been created yet?
IIRC I then switched to another library doing the same stuff: https://github.com/aantron/better-enums It is not as magical, as it uses a special macro to define the enum, using dedicated syntax. So it only works for enums you yourself define. However, it did work a lot better for me with enums with huge values.

Behind the magic of magic_enum
I can't keep up! First we have better enum, then some guy at a conference says we have to use wise enum instead, and now you speak of magic enum!

let's all be chads
If you need a laugh today, look at Better Enums library for C++. If you thought moving from C to C++ would let you leave macros behind, think again! Enums in C++ still suck (a bit less than in C though), so someone built a library to help with that. And it's built on macros. So you can only have 64 entries per enum. And the library's code is barely readable.
