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.

Just got an Arduino kit, what are some simple projects that would help me learn coding and be useful with my modular synthesizers?
I was in a similar boat to you, though I have a lot of experience programming outside of the arduino/midi controller context. I was pretty happy to just use https://github.com/tttapa/Control-Surface as a library to handle connecting an arduino with a pot to my PC as a midi controller. The docs and examples the codebase has were very useful.
- I think this relates to this sub as it is controlling a synth and I need all the help I can get tyia

DIY Midi Controller
Wow, what a pretty project! If you end up expanding this, you might look at the Control-Surface lib; seems like it's made for this kind of thing.

Ask HN: Unconventional Use of MIDI?
https://github.com/tttapa/Control-Surface
I've been working on this beasty project together with a friend. We did some liveshows back then and decided that we needed some more control gear. But not just a laptop focusing launchpad, we wanted to forget there was even a laptop (or other hardware) attached to this controller, so that all our attention and focus would be on the music and the crowd, and above all: we wanted something that would instantly announce your presence on stage.

CC midi controller with approx 37 knobs!?
I used this library with an Arduino and several multiplexers. It worked very well and was easy to use. https://github.com/tttapa/Control-Surface
- Hello my fellow logic lovers, I have a question. What is the best DAW-Controller for logic, or would you recommend getting an iPad and using logic remote?

teensy 4.0. I think I have a debounce issue. I don't know how to add it to my code.
Should be fixed in https://github.com/tttapa/Control-Surface/commit/eb7a468a0a73584b93be16d978404b25401ce66f, you can increase the SELECT_LINE_DELAY constant if necessary.
- How do I essentially go from button to sound?

My open-source synth/sampler/sequencer/DAW-in-a-box: The LMN-3
The PCB was an entirely new endeavour for me, but it was essential in making the project footprint as small as possible. Never done any kind of electronics design outside of hobbyist arduino stuff and the initial prototype. I used [KiCAD 6] to design the PCB. KiCAD might be the single greatest GUI-based open-source software I have ever used, its a shame FreeCAD is so far behind it in terms of stability. It is also free and open source. I went with a simple 2 layer design with all through-hole components to keep things as simple as possible so people didnt have to mess around with heat guns or toaster ovens to solder the board. It turned out great. I also elected to use a teensy to do the heavy lifting. Sticking to an arduino platform means its a lot easier for people to contribute to the firmware. It also meant I could use the greatest arduino library ever written, Control Surface. Control surface is what makes it so easy to write the midi logic for the firmware. It is the backbone of the firmware and really is incredible.

Sloowly modifying a Cordovox CG4 for MIDI
Take a look at tttapa's control surface github! It's an extremely robust MIDI library so all you really need is a little Arduino/C knowledge and you should be able to get the inputs worked out. I'm a little fuzzy in my output understanding with MIDI, but this library supports that too! Understanding Keyboard matrices isn't hard once you wrap your head around the basics (I recommend looking up computer keyboard handwiring guides and/or qmk as there's a lot there and the wiring is the same)

First DIY Drone Questions!
Since you mentioned programming, one other thing you should consider is the firmware. FPV drones typically run the betaflight firmware. betaflight is fairly mature, feature-rich and is aimed at racers and freestyle pilots. If you’re looking more to tinker with programing, you could start with this instead of a more standard flight controller: https://github.com/nickrehm/dRehmFlight

Book on programming my own autopilot
I have similar aspirations. No books, but if you want an example of someone who’s done that before, check out drhemflight. It’s not fully autonomous, but it’s a modular flight stabilizer running on teensy, which uses arduino IDE
- Does anyone know about a good avionics related open source project for learning purposes?

Seeking Advice and Help in Creating a Custom Flight Controller for My Mini Programmable Drone
There's several flight control systems on Github, such as Ardupilot, for example. I wouldn't undertake this without checking out what's already out there, all the way down to simple stabilization systems.

Ask HN: Best programmable drone / open source OS?
To add to this, most of the time one doesn't need to hack on the drone firmware itself. Just configuring/hacking the mission planner alone would go a long way: https://ardupilot.org/planner/
But if you're interested in more readable codebases without too much legacy headaches:
https://github.com/BossHobby/QUICKSILVER (for indoor drones mostly)
And for even less functionality but a good learning tool kind of codebase:

What did you wish you knew before making your own drone from scratch?
dRehmFlight is about the simplest a flight controller can get (in terms of code readability).
