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.

Bad tools that NEED improvement
Deephage and PPR-meta: both by the same group. They require MATLAB which makes them tricky on an HPC or cloud system. They both say that if you need to run on several samples concurrently, you must clone the tool to a new directory for each(!). Likely due to temporary files being written to the working directory. Entirely unscalable in that case.

Bad tools that NEED improvement
Cenote Unlimited Breadsticks: I have run ~160k simulated contigs of various lengths through this tool, and none have been predicted as phage. I haven't openened an issue yet because I need to make sure it isn't on my end and that I can give a reprex. Also, you cannot choose the output directory, so it clutters your working directory.
What are some alternatives?
RNN-VirSeeker - This is a deep learning method for identification of viral contigs with short length from metagenomic data.
virnet - VirNet: A deep attention model for viral reads identification
DeePhage - A tool for distinguish temperate phage-derived and virulent phage-derived sequence in metavirome data using deep learning
PhaMers - A bioinformatic tool for identifying bacteriophages using machine learning and k-mers
metaGEM - :gem: An easy-to-use workflow for generating context specific genome-scale metabolic models and predicting metabolic interactions within microbial communities directly from metagenomic data
VirusSeeker-Virome - VirusSeeker is a set of fully automated and modular software package designed for mining sequence data to identify sequences of microbial origin.
