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.

Just got a PC, what are some must have mods to make my MSFS experience improved?
Get the FlyByWire A32NX.

Question regarding FBWs A32NX change-log
I know that there is a changelog on Github here: https://github.com/flybywiresim/a32nx/blob/master/.github/CHANGELOG.md
This shows what is planned for 0.8

FBW A32X NEO -- Cabin pressurization emergency
Next time it will warn you earlier (at least after this is QA tested and merged) ;) https://github.com/flybywiresim/a32nx/pull/6650
The ecam warning for packs off is not in at the moment. An entirely new flight warning system is being built from scratch. Once that’s ready all of the ECAM warnings will be implemented. The packs off one might be a good idea to do in the interim even with the old system as I’ve seen this quite a few times and even done it myself…

Whats your favourite open source Rust project that needs more recognition?
Just found this today. Thought it was pretty interesting that Rust is being used to build an A320 for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020.
- Is there any most have mods?

Fish (shell) porting to Rust from C++
This is exciting.
I've not had problems with latency in fish, but the promise of rust is that there is so little latency that it heralds a close to the metal feeling I've not seen in decades.
I think that feeling is visceral and laudable, regardless of the actual runtime profile. It's under-appreciated in the design community. IPC latency is as big a problem in operating systems and programming languages as RPC latency is in cloud systems.
I have no experience with rust, but I do depend on helix daily:
https://github.com/helix-editor/helix
and helix is rust.
I think this kind of open source experiment is exactly what we should be encouraging because it's forward-looking and straightforward to test.
I think the fish community could decide easily by A-B testing the Rust and C++ builds with real users and see how they compare in terms of reliability, performance, regressions, time-to-fix, and so on, assuming the team has the bandwidth to absorb the sideways nature of the work without derailing fish.
To me, rust is more than trendy and I can remember the first time I touched Walter Bright's work decades ago, so I'm open-minded about D too. A simple KLOC or cyclomatic complexity as a proxy to abstraction would be an interesting lens.

What features are you waiting for?
Once https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/pull/5420 lands adding folding should be pretty straight forward
There's no way to refer to any context from the current Helix session in the command invocation. If you want to refer to the path of the current file, you have to type it out yourself. Command substitution would make it way more convenient to use the family of shell commands (:sh, :pipe, :insert-output, :append-output). Thankfully there's a Pull Request out for it already.
There was https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/pull/4649 for an integrated terminal. Sadly the author stopped working on that. An integrated terminal does fit in core and something we would like to see eventually. Maybe someone is able to pick that work up.
