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.

Asdf – the language tool version manager
Downside: it's all shell scripts. Upside: it's all shell scripts.
Seriously through, it's pretty easy to create an asdf plugin, and it works great. But it would be great if there were a static executable to handle it all.
A couple projects out there come close, but need people to contribute code to finish the most useful functionality. One example is https://github.com/marcosnils/bin - the developer is fully in favor of improvements and added features, but needs someone with the free time to add them.

stew: An independent package manager for compiled binaries
Looks good. The problem is, there's also https://github.com/marcosnils/bin - now i don't know which one to use :/

The Magic Nix Cache
This is what I'm using with gitlab: https://github.com/takeda/nix-cde/blob/master/contrib/gitlab...

Using Nix as an alternative to dev containers in VScode.
I myself use https://github.com/takeda/nix-cde it just wraps other projects in an opinionated way and contains the boiler plate that I would normally use otherwise.

As if there weren't enough packaging tools already: mitsuhiko/rye: an experimental alternative to poetry/pip/pipenv/venv/virtualenv/pdm/hatch/…
There's a project that does this with using Nix: https://github.com/takeda/nix-cde (this is a wrapper around https://github.com/nix-community/poetry2nix)
- Docker multi-stage build with Poetry

Python 3.11 delivers.
I personally use this: https://github.com/takeda/nix-cde it has the benefit of a reproducible build environment, but unfortunately anything involving Nix has a steep learning curve.

The perfect way to handle project-specific developer configs

Asdf – the language tool version manager
I don't use NixOS myself, but have Nix installed on my Mac, and it seems to provide all functionality of package or version managers I needed.
I think though it is more complex because it is a programming language that provides this functionality instead of purpose build tool like asdf.
For my needs I created a framework for development: https://github.com/takeda/nix-cde to avoid cruft of including the same things over and over in my projects.

Use `Python -m Pip`
Not an OP, but I became a big fan of using poetry for managing dependencies. For managing python version I started using Nix package manager. It allows to describe all dependencies via code, but with time that code became a boilerplate, so I created this: https://github.com/takeda/nix-cde
It works very well for me so far.
