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.

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.

Writing Programs with Ncurses
There is brick[1][2] for Haskell. Other languages may have something similar.

If you could change one thing about Emacs what would it be?
In that vein, a declarative way to build (Text) UI like html+css. Or something along the lines of what Brick is for terminals.

Things I've learned about building CLI tools in Python
I have been using Typer on every one of my CLI projects which uses Click under the hood. The documentation is fantastic, the CLI app it produces looks great and lets you create things quickly. I high recommend it.
-
Things to do with standalone script
Adding CLI capabilities. My preferred library here is typer.
-
The different uses of Python type hints
Similarly for Typer, which is literally "the FastAPI of CLIs"[1]. Handy to type your `main` parameters and have CLI argument parsing. For more complicated cases, it's a wrapper around Click.
-
Command line parser library, which one do you like the most, regardless of language?
interesting that you hate python, but love Click. Did you try Typer which uses Click underneath?
-
I made a file manager in python
Try to make it into a command line tool? check https://typer.tiangolo.com/ for example

How to make a CLI?
I used this template repo to make a bash cli https://github.com/SierraSoftworks/bash-cli then I made a brew formula to make it installable. It provide a nice way to make a cli with nested commands like git. As others mentioned other languages like python have great support for making nice clis see https://typer.tiangolo.com/ for an example framework in python. I chose bash because packaging a python cli for a private brew package is a pain and 99% of what I needed the cli to do was inkoke other clis, so bash made sense for my case.
-
I am sick of writing argparse boilerplate code, so I made "duckargs" to do it for me
Very cool. I’ve been using Typer lately. Easy to give a library a cli without too much boilerplate.
-
Just released my much-improved YouTube archiver as v1.2 🎉🎉
Check out Typer for the command line tooling, might make it a bit easier to maintain later on!
