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 journey from beginning to end
For what it's worth, it is possible to desolder the old connector and solder on a new one. Per Framework's documentation, the connector is a AUSB0534-P203A61. While I was able to find the part on the manufacturer's website, I'm not sure of a way to order it as an individual (I couldn't find it on Digi-Key or Mouser for example).

Mainboard dimensions
Maybe in their repo you will find useful numbers: https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/Mainboard

Building a Cyber Deck for emulation
Might be on the pricier side, but the Framework laptop mainboard is available separately starting at $350 https://frame.work/products/mainboard as well as the battery https://frame.work/products/battery, and there's documentation with suggestions/designs on how to built around it for projects like this https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/Mainboard. Should have plenty of power for emulation and light pc gaming, as well as thunderbolt support for an egpu.

could I build a stand alone touchpad using the framework touchpad part?
Look like trackpad (TP?) is just IIC. https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/Mainboard/blob/main/Electrical/Mainboard_Interfaces_Schematic_11th_Gen.pdf

Framework in 2022: Year-in-review
We released a 3D printable Mainboard Case, and open sourced our Mainboard drawings and electrical documentation in a Github repository.

Hooking up a 17.3" screen to a framework?
The block diagram for the Tiger Lake mainboards says that the current displays and motherboards communicate over eDP 1.2 (is Alder Lake-P the same?), so I started by looking for 17.3" screens that communicate with eDP 1.2.

The Framework Laptop Chromebook Edition
One thing worth noting is that basically, even now (almost 10 months post announcement), almost no one has a 6000U laptop outs (a search on Amazon and Best Buy shows two 6800U laptop models total, one Asus and one Lenovo). Two niche vendors, XMG and Star Labs, have both publicly stated that they would have loved to have offered Ryzen 6000 laptops, but couldn't get any allotments. There are were also well documented chipset issues - even into the summer Lenovo and Asus talked about requiring firmware updates to enable their USB4 ports.
That being said, starting w/ Rembrandt, AMD now has full 40Gbps USB4 controllers built on-chip. I'm really looking forward to Ryzen 7040 because Phoenix looks great (Zen4 + RDNA3 on TSMC N4 - yes please) and hopefully USB4 support has matured enough on the AMD side that Framework is able to release something.
My understanding is that the I/O limitation is in the re-timers - currently the Framework uses 4X JHL8040R's (labeled as Burnside Bridge) directly connected to the iTBT: https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/Mainboard/blob/main/Ele... Apple used these for their first M1 MBAs as well: https://github.com/ThomasKaiser/Knowledge/blob/master/articl...
But both Apple and AMD are now using Kandou retimers:

Now offering 2TB SSDs for Steam Deck in the Framework Marketplace
With the power of the Framework Mainboard, Whatthefilament has no limit to what he can create. This time it’s the Framework AIO Desktop, which utilizes the Framework Laptop Mainboard and hinges. Previously, he’s created the Framework tablet, FrameStation, Frame-WorkStation, and more! All projects are available on GitHub.

My open-source headphones project is almost completed. I made a 3D-printed Helmholtz resonator to help tune the frequency response. More details in the comments.
The one I have right now is a cheap touch screen with a raspberry pi to test feasibility but my next one will be based off this project https://github.com/whatthefilament/Framework-Tablet

Now available for pre-order in Australia
Framework u/whatthefilament used his Mainboard to make an awesome tablet that has garnered a lot of interest from other members of the DIY community. Check out his feature in PC Gamer. You can pick up whatthefilament’s design files, and the open source reference designs we’ve released on GitHub.

How fast is 12th Gen Intel Core?
An even cooler thing is that since the mechanicals are all published, anyone can actually make their own relatively easily, like this Framework Tablet: https://www.reddit.com/r/framework/comments/wgzwv1/two_big_d...

- Two big drops today! I've released V1.3 of the Framework tablet on my GitHub, which now includes support for the stock battery, speakers, and an iFixit style instruction manual to walk you through the build.
- The Framework tablet mod is almost complete! Everything works, touch screen, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth. Just need to get my hands on a battery for fitment, and we will be off the wall powers life support V1.2 "thick boi" was released today on my Github
- I just released a v1.1 update for the tablet case. It improves some of the printability and access to the expansion card slots. No supports are needed when printing this update
