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.

PySpark OSS Contribution Opportunity
Adding some README documentation to the README should be quite straightforward. Here's a function that needs to be documented: https://github.com/MrPowers/quinn/issues/52 .
There are a lot of issues in the quinn repo with a "good first issue" tag if you'd like to get started: https://github.com/MrPowers/quinn/issues

Invitation to collaborate on open source PySpark projects
quinn is a library with PySpark helper functions. I need to work through all the open issues / PRs and bump all versions. I should do another release. This library gets around 600,000 monthly downloads.

Pyspark now provides a native Pandas API
Pandas syntax is far inferior to regular PySpark in my opinion. Goes to show how much data analysts value a syntax that they're already familiar with. Pandas syntax makes it harder to reason about queries, abstract DataFrame transformations, etc. I've authored some popular PySpark libraries like quinn and chispa and am not excited to add Pandas syntax support, haha.

Is Spark - The Defenitive Guide outdated?
They spent a lot of effort improving the catalyst engine under the hood too and making it easier to extend and improve it in the future. Making it easy to add your own native code to Spark itself. Shameless plug of a blog post I wrote on this subject which basically reiterates what Matthew Powers, author of Spark Daria and quinn, wrote here.

Ask HN: What are some tools / libraries you built yourself?
I built daria (https://github.com/MrPowers/spark-daria) to make it easier to write Spark and spark-fast-tests (https://github.com/MrPowers/spark-fast-tests) to provide a good testing workflow.
quinn (https://github.com/MrPowers/quinn) and chispa (https://github.com/MrPowers/chispa) are the PySpark equivalents.
Built bebe (https://github.com/MrPowers/bebe) to expose the Spark Catalyst expressions that aren't exposed to the Scala / Python APIs.
Also build spark-sbt.g8 to create a Spark project with a single command: https://github.com/MrPowers/spark-sbt.g8

Lakehouse architecture in Azure Synapse without Databricks?
I was a Databricks user for 5 years and spent 95% of my time developing Spark code in IDEs. See the spark-daria and spark-fast-tests projects as Scala examples. I developed internal libraries with all the business logic. The Databricks notebooks would consist of a few lines of code that would invoke a function in the proprietary Spark codebase. The proprietary Spark codebase would depend on the OSS libraries I developed in parallel.

Unit & integration testing in Databricks
If the majority of your stuff is not UDF-based there is an OS solution to run assertion tests against full data frames called spark-fast-tests. The idea here is similar in that you have a it notebook that calls your actual notebook against a staged input reads the output and compares it to a prefabed expected output. This does take a bit of setup and trial and error but itβs the closest Iβve been able to get to proper automated regression testing in databricks
