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.

refine vs Blitz.js
Blitz is also an open-source project that allows users to access the code and allows to contribute. Their community has generated a lot of impact as well, and has grown rapidly over time since the creation in 2020:

Show HN: A social network like Myspace, built on top of Notion
Not yet, I actually just whipped it up quickly last week after I was browsing the Notion subreddit and it reminded me of myspace.
These are the tools I used:
* BlitzJS (https://github.com/blitz-js/blitz)

Blitz.js – The Missing Fullstack Toolkit for Next.js
Hello, I'm the creator of Blitz.js (first announced 2.5 years ago)
Today the Blitz.js 2.0 pivot to a modular Next.js toolkit reached Beta status [1]
Previously Blitz abstracted Next.js, but Blitz 2.0 is now a modular toolkit that plugs into any new or existing Next.js app. Blitz picks up where Next.js leaves off, providing libraries and conventions for shipping and scaling small to large apps.
When I first created Blitz, my aim was to have an all-in-one fullstack framework for Javascript like Ruby on Rails. But that proved to be too difficult. I've decided that achieving an all-in-one framework for JS like Rails is too difficult unless you have a ton of funding and don't have to make meaningful money.
The difference with JS is that client-side frameworks like React have an incredible amount of complexity. Trying to manage all of that and all the other fullstack framework stuff like API layers, auth, file uploads, etc is too large of scope.
So now Blitz is no longer trying to do it all and is focusing on all the non-frontend functionality you need to ship web apps.
Going forward, we want to be the most trusted technical resource for rapidly building and scaling full-stack TypeScript apps.

Remix: On Rails
Ironically, a couple days ago the Blitz lead posted an RFC proposing that they shift from being a fork of Next to being a separate lib focusing on the data/auth layer:

Release Radar • February 2024 Edition
Frameworks are a theme with this month's Release Radar, so here's another. Redwood is a full-stack, JavaScript/TypeScript web application, designed to scale with you. It uses React frontend for the frontend and links to a custom GraphQL API for the backend. The latest version includes a bunch of breaking changes such as moving to Node 20.0, the Redwood Studio, and highly requested GraphQL features such as Realtime, Fragments, and Trusted Documents, the server file, new router hooks, and heaps more. If you've previously used Redwood, you'll probably want to upgrade to version 7.0. The team have put together a handy migration guide for you to follow.

The Current State of React Server Components: A Guide for the Perplexed
The other piece of important information to acknowledge here is that when we say RSCs need a framework, “framework” effectively just means “Next.js.” There are some smaller frameworks (like Waku) that support RSCs. There are also some larger and more established frameworks (like Redwood) that have plans to support RSCs or (like Gatsby) only support RSCs in beta. We will likely see this change once we get React 19 and RSCs are part of the Stable version. However, for now, Next.js is currently the only framework recommended in the official React docs that supports server components.

What will happen to the full-stack framework in the future?
Although there are quite a few opinionated battery-included frameworks that have picked up everything for you like RedwoodJS, Blitz, and Create-T3-App, you still need to choose between them and hope that they will remain mainstream and well-maintained in the future. So how should we choose?

NextJS vs RedwoodJS
Web development frameworks in JavaScript, such as NextJS and RedwoodJS, have gained popularity among developers. Choosing the right framework, library, or tool for a project is crucial for efficient development. Developers often seek the best tools to save time and avoid reinventing the wheel.

Is Next.js 13 + RSC a Good Choice? I Built an App Without Client-Side Javascript to Find Out
Next.js 13 ignited the first wave of attention to React Server Components (RSC) around the end of last year. Over time, other frameworks, like Remix and RedwoodJS, have also started to put RSC into their future road maps. However, the entire "moving computation to the server-side" direction of React/Next.js has been highly controversial from the very beginning.

Enhancing Redwood: A Guide to Implementing Zod for Data Validation and Schema Sharing Between the API and Web Layers
I'm currently experimenting with the fantastic Redwood framework. However, while going through the excellent tutorial, I didn't find any guidance on using data validation libraries like Yup, Zod, Vest, etc. So, I had to do some investigation and came up with a solution. This article describes the implementation of validation with Zod in a fresh Redwood app. You can find the sources at this github repository.

ZenStack: The Complete Authorization Solution for Prisma Projects
RBAC is one of the most common authorization models - users are assigned different roles, and resource access privileges are controlled at the role level. Despite its limitations, RBAC is a popular choice for simple applications, and some frameworks (like RedwoodJS) have built-in support for it.

Implementing Flexible Authorization in RedwoodJS Projects
RedwoodJS is an opinionated full-stack framework for building modern web applications. It makes some of the most critical decisions for you - like using React for UI development, GraphQL for API, and Prisma for database programming, etc. - so you can stop struggling with choices and focus on building your app.

Is Prisma ORM ready for production?
Also, there are lots of exciting web frameworks that use Prisma as their default ORM layer (like RedwoodJS which is built by the founder of GitHub, Amplication which recently raised $6.6M in seed funding, Wasp (YC W21) or KeystoneJS) which should give you some more validation that Prisma is being used in a lot production applications :)
