Hyperledger Ursa (a shared cryptographic library) has moved to end-of-life status, with the components of Ursa still in use moved to their relevant Hyperledger projects (AnonCreds, Indy, Aries and Iroha). (by hyperledger-archives)

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.

Hyperledger SSI Ecosystem
In the beginning, there was no Ursa or Aries, just Indy with all functionality together. As time went by, the Hyperledger community realized that there are a lot of useful cryptographic primitives which can be extracted and used by other Hyperledger projects. That’s the reason why Ursa has been created. It’s only one ursa repository containing encryption, signatures, and zero-knowledge algorithms. I’m not a cryptographer, and I’ve been working mainly with Indy and Aries, so I don’t know many details about it. I will leave that investigation up to you if you need to learn more. However, for many SSI use case implementations, you will be good just with knowledge of Indy and Aries.

Hyperledger SSI Ecosystem
Here is a diagram showing how all those components fit together. I took Aries JavaScript Framework for demonstration (I’m a little bit biased here because I started the project, and I’m a fan of it, of course):
What are some alternatives?
When comparing ursa and credo-ts you can also consider the following projects:
aries-askar - Secure storage designed for Hyperledger Aries agents.
indy-sdk - indy-sdk
verity
indy-node - The server portion of a distributed ledger purpose-built for decentralized identity.
indy-vdr - A library and proxy server for interacting with Hyperledger Indy Node ledger instances
indy-shared-rs - Shared Rust data types and utility functions for Hyperledger Indy.
aries-rfcs - Hyperledger Aries is infrastructure for blockchain-rooted, peer-to-peer interactions
