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.

Ask HN: Tell us about your project that's not done yet but you want feedback on
https://github.com/ambrosiogabe/MathAnimation
If you’ve ever tried to make a mathematical animation (think 3Blue1Brown), it’s a real pain. I was using manim for awhile to make animations for my YT channel, but the whole iteration process felt very slow and repetitive. So I thought I would recreate manim over the weekend, except with a GUI and real-time feedback. It’s been a year and a half and I’m hoping this weekend will be done soon so I can move on and start making videos again.
So far, it does a lot, but it still needs a lot of polish and refinement. The readme gives some gifs and a better idea of the feature set right now.

The Worst API Ever Made
Win32 definitely has some stinkers. But, video encoding APIs definitely take the cake for me. I've only tried a couple of FFmpeg's APIs and AV1's API, but my God, these are the worst API's I've ever had to deal with.
Just as an example, all I wanted was an API like this[0] for FFmpeg. In order to implement that API (which in my opinion is reasonable), I had to write this monstrosity[1]. It took me a solid week to find an example of how to do this, then another few days of fiddling until I finally just barely got something working. Then I threw in the towel even though the performance was horrible. I tried again a year later and spent another month wrestling with AV1 :/
The amount of leakage going on in these APIs is absolutely insane. I shouldn't have to know the intimate details of how video encoding works to use your library. If I do, then I may as well write my own encoder at that point.

Show HN: Mafs – React components for interactive math
I just so happen to be working on a real-time Gui first replacement for manim :)
It still has a ways to go, but I was able to create one video with it so far and I'm working on all the pain points I ran into while using it. Feel free to check it out if you're interested!

Ask HN: Who is using C++ as the main language for new project?
I'm using C++ for a minecraft clone that I've been tinkering on for the past year[0]. I also plan on using embedded lua for scripting, and I'm using RML UI for game HUDs, ImGui for development tools, and OpenGL for graphics. I use premake for my build system but plan on switching to CMake.
I'm also using it for an animation tool[1]. I've been using 3Blue1Brown's Manim (written in Python) which is amazing, but it lacks real-time editing and proper 3D blending. It also lacks audio synchronization, 3D texture support, and some more complex features that I'd like to add :)

The IDEs we had 30 years ago and we lost
i am working on such a thing myself at https://github.com/yazz/yazz. Also there are many other people trying to build something similar

2023: Focusing on a single product pays off
I keep hacking away on Yazz for over 10 years now.... even if there is zero payoff I keep hacking... and that is what hackers do... we are not doing for the money... https://github.com/yazz/yazz

“The Economics of Programming Languages” by Evan Czaplicki [video]
I really loved this talk and feel for Evan. As someone who was a VC/Angel investor in the space (I was the initial angel investor for something called LightTable/Eve) back in the day, worked for a couple of years at Red Hat, and am working on my own Open Source Language here: https://github.com/yazz/yazz (so yes, you could say I am a VC trying to build a low code product with my own hands), so I feel I have a valid opinions on this. I think that it is possible to make money in opensource as a little guy, but you need to have a combination of consulting, hosting, and support services. If your product is not able to encapsulate being sold and packaged as something that is possible to demo and sell to customers then you will most likely struggle to make a living from it

Ask HN: Why did Visual Basic die?
I am actually trying to make an open source successor, but using Javascript instead of Basic, at https://github.com/yazz/yazz and a demo at yazz.com

Ask HN: Tell us about your project that's not done yet but you want feedback on
I'm still building a low code system with an easy to use component marketplace where you can edit components within the low code tool. Still a work in progress: https://github.com/yazz/yazz

Show HN: Scrapscript – The Sharable Programming Language
Author of a framework that also stores it's code in IPFS for easy sharing (https://github.com/yazz/yazz). ScrapScript is a really nice concept with how it stores code. I originally got the idea for storing the code as a hash of the contents from Unison, and it looks like the idea is really starting to catch on with more and more languages now. Well done!

A look at Unison: a revolutionary programming language
I’m working on a low core project that is already using content addressable source code that is stored in IPFS at https://github.com/yazz/yazz so it can be done

DBOS: A Database-Oriented Operating System
There are already some Dbos type systems out there. I built one which stores program state in SQLite databases and process state and programs are also stored in SQLite. In the oat I believe things like silver stream did the same too. The project I made is open source too: https://github.com/yazz/yazz
