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.

What is your go-to UI framework?
For small apps, I may choose a TUI (Terminal User Interface). Curses for Python is very lightweight, but quite low level and difficult to use for anything more than a very simple interface (if your app tries to draw outside of the drawing area, the app crashes, so you have to carefully manage every detail). Textual and asciimatics are both mature TUI frameworks that provide a higher level and more Pythonic way to create TUI's.

How to format output for a stand-alone display screen? Larger numbers, colors, redrawing the screen from the top left instead of printing a new line every time?
If you are looking for something more flexible that just printing to a terminal, take a look at Asciimatics and textual. Both are available from Pypi.

I'm making a notes app and am up to making an 'edit' feature, but have no way of making changes to a file's contents, let alone saving the changes and writing them to the file
Scroll down to the TUI example in the README, just above the documentation link: https://github.com/peterbrittain/asciimatics

Best library for TUI (Text User Interface) and CLI (Command line Interface)
Personally I dig the aesthetics of asciimatics, it's quite handy and cross-platform.

Show HN: Text Lambda, a versatile notebook for your personal data
Thank you!
"stash", the initial MVP version, is written in Haskell. I chose Haskell mostly because of https://github.com/jtdaugherty/brick, which is a wonderful TUI library. I also tend to prefer functional programming languages when I have the choice.
However, Text 's backend and website are currently implemented in Clojure. The app is in C + Flutter (Dart).

How can I move from a basic hello world/number program to something more substantial?
Brick is a great library for terminal applications. I’d say start with the examples or take a look at some tutorials that use it, then just go at it.

A simple tui to launch gzdoom mods
Thanks. Yeah I was surprised myself at how much of a capable tool whiptail turned out to be. Especially since I'd heard it has issues with returning values, or not being as capable as dialog. I was actually in the midst of choosing between it, Haskell's brick, or python's PromptToolkit, yet settled on whiptail to see how far a bash approach could take me.
