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.

-
A command line tool that draw plots on the terminal
Also:
https://github.com/saitoha/libsixel
contains img2sixel, which lets you dump images to the terminal. It can also do animated GIFs.

GUI apps:

and more, linked from the libsixel repository.
- Would it be possible to create a ascii movie player that runs entirely in the terminal?

Using ASCII waveforms to test real-time audio code
> I don’t see why sixels couldn’t work.
Sixels will work: they are fast enough to allow youtube video playback !!!

But the problem is NOT THE FORMAT, the problem is the lack of tooling. links and w3m are among the rare text browsers that can display images in the console.
It's just a matter of the browser sending the image to something in some format, but if that hasn't be thought about as a possibility (say, for text reflow issues) it's going to be far more complicated than just adding a new format, as you will have to work both on say the text reflow issues (ex: how do you select the size of the placeholder, when expressed in characters?), and the picture display.
Personally, I do not care much about sixels, kitty or iterm format - all I want is to see some kind of support.
Yes, it would be better if that support was for the option that has the greatest chance of succeeding, but even that is a second concern: in the worst case, we can write transcoders to whatever format people prefer!
But when there is no "input" to transcode, you have a much bigger problem!
> an off the shelf ASCII plotting library probably involves less custom tooling
With a terminal like msys2 or xterm, no custom tooling is required: just use the regular gnuplot after doing the export for the desired resolution, font, and font size.
gnuplot is far more standard than plotting library that often require special Unicode fonts on top of requiring you to use their specific format.

The Awk Programming Language, Second Edition
`sparklines`[1] is good for an overall low-res view. `termgraph`[2] is sometimes better for a higher-res, more capable view (but can be finicky about the data.)

Which not so well known Python packages do you like to use on a regular basis and why?
I use TermGraph (https://github.com/mkaz/termgraph) a lot. Impress my boss / coworkers with it. It can easily convert your tables / numbers to super cool graphs on the command line and being text, the result can be copy pasted into the emails / chats. I've shown a demo here: https://youtu.be/86V5amp1u7U

📢 Grype 0.42.0 is out... and hello grype-contribs 👶
We'll use termgraph, "A command-line tool that draws basic graphs in the terminal," :
-
My favorite cli/tui programs:
https://github.com/mkaz/termgraph - for plotting simple data
What are some alternatives?
sixel-tmux - sixel-tmux is a fork of tmux, with just one goal: having the most reliable support of graphics
navi - An interactive cheatsheet tool for the command-line
melatonin_audio_sparklines - Sparklines For JUCE AudioBlocks
dust - A more intuitive version of du in rust
ttyplot - a realtime plotting utility for terminal/console with data input from stdin
sn - Simple Notes using fzf
plotext - plotting on terminal
Weechat - The extensible chat client.
Gin - A few extras for juce
glances - Glances an Eye on your system. A top/htop alternative for GNU/Linux, BSD, Mac OS and Windows operating systems.
SDL1.2-SIXEL - SDL 1.2 with libsixel based video driver
cmus - Small, fast and powerful console music player for Unix-like operating systems.
