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.

FontForge
Fontforge is the tool I used to create and what I use to maintain my 3270 font, https://github.com/rbanffy/3270font.
It has that 1990's Unix workstation vibes, but, if I didn't like vintage tech, I wouldn't make a 3270 terminal font.

Ligatures in programming fonts: hell no
Is there a way to add programming ligatures to an existing font, similar to how Nerd Font patches existing fonts to add useful terminal glyphs like the Powerline symbols¹? I would love to have a ligatured version of that font https://github.com/rbanffy/3270font
1) the last sentence of the article implies that the author of the article abhor them as much as programming ligatures. I don't understand why but preference in taste, color, esthetic are not objective, nor absolute, so I am not the one to judge him.

https://github.com/rbanffy/3270font
Being distributed with Debian and downstreams, 11 years old, with 1.5K stars and 60+ forks is, by far, my most popular open source thing. My biggest shame is that it's not software, but a font that mimics the look of IBM's 3278-2 terminals.
And, of course, it's the font I use for terminals on all my machines.

MonoLisa – A Font Designed for Developers
Sorry, but no IDE comes with a proper 3278-like font. Not even IBM's Developer for z/OS comes with one (they commissioned that other font called Plex... who would take seriously a font named after a media player?).
Luckily, everyone can get one at https://github.com/rbanffy/3270font.
Note: shameless plug ;-)

Treemaps Are Awesome!
Nice post - treemaps are great!
My friend and I made a codebase visualisation tool (https://www.codeatlas.dev/gallery) that's based on Voronoi treemaps, maybe of interest as an illustration of the aesthetics with a non-rectangular layout!
We've opted for zooming through double-clicks as the main method of navigating the map, because in deep codebases, the individual cells quickly get too small to accurately target with the cursor as shown in the key-path label approach!
If anyone's interested, this is also available as a Github Action to generate the treemap during CI: https://github.com/codeatlasHQ/codebase-visualizer-action

Gource – Animate your Git history
If you find this type of codebase visualisation useful, you might want to checkout codeatlas.dev and its Github Action (https://github.com/codeatlasHQ/codebase-visualizer-action). It doesn't animate the repo over time like gource (yet), but instead aims to give a beautiful interactive visual snapshot of a repo at a particular point in time. It also lets you zoom in on specific aspects like recent commit activity, programming language and hopefully in the future test coverage.
E.g. see here for a visualisation of the pytorch codebase we did a while ago: https://codeatlas.dev/gallery/pytorch/pytorch

Show HN: Git Heat Map – a tool for visualising Git repo activity for each file
If you think this is useful, you might also like codeatlas.dev and its Github Action (https://github.com/codeatlasHQ/codebase-visualizer-action). It currently does not support per-contributor activity, but we put a lot of effort into making the diagrams beautiful to look at and the basic approach of using treemaps for visualisation seems very similar. In fact, could be cool to collaborate on this, DM me if interested!

https://codeatlas.dev - codebase visualisation tool
Takes your git repo and generates a beautiful visual representation of the code. Sort of an alternative navigation tool (in addition to IDEs) for large codebases. Can also run it as part of CI with our Github Action (https://github.com/codeatlasHQ/codebase-visualizer-action).
We made this because grokking complex software projects is really difficult and we've found that a visual overview of what's in a codebase can be quite helpful to get started.
E.g. checkout https://codeatlas.dev/gallery/kubernetes/kubernetes for the generated visualisation of the Kubernetes Github repo!
Currently making -10$/year to pay for the domain :D We slowed down active development after our initial attempts at dissemination didn't really go anywhere (bragging about side projects on the internet, ugh), but I'm still really keen on getting some feedback on whether this is actually useful to anyone else!
Note: The site works somewhat on mobile, but is much better on desktop!
Also, funny there's a post like this again, just like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34531989 yesterday.

Ask HN: Why aren't code diagram generating tools more common?
I've already mentioned this on the other thread (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31569646), but my friend and I have been working on [https://www.codeatlas.dev](https://www.codeatlas.dev/) as a sideproject - it's a tool for creating pretty (2D!) visualisations of codebases, while providing additional insights via overlays (e.g. commit density, programming language or other results from static analysis like dead code/test coverage/etc.). For example here's the Kubernetes codebase visualised using codeatlas: [https://www.codeatlas.dev/repo/kubernetes/kubernetes](https:....
At the moment, codeatlas is just the static gallery, but we're only a few weekends away from releasing a Github action that deploys this diagram on github pages for your own repos - if you're interested, feel free to watch this repo: https://github.com/codeatlasHQ/codebase-visualizer-action
OP, how close is this to what you had in mind in your question?

Ask HN: Visualizing software designs, especially of large systems (if at all)?
My friend and I have been working on https://www.codeatlas.dev in our spare time, which is a tool that creates pretty (2D!) visualisations of codebases, while providing additional insights via overlays (e.g. commit density, programming language). For example here's the Kubernetes codebase visualised using codeatlas: https://www.codeatlas.dev/repo/kubernetes/kubernetes.
At the moment, codeatlas is only a static gallery, but we're currently about 1-2 weekends away from releasing a Github action that deploys this diagram on github pages for your own repos - if you're interested, feel free to watch this repo: https://github.com/codeatlasHQ/codebase-visualizer-action
