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.

Text UIs != Terminal UIs
I mean mainly things like this:
https://github.com/aristocratos/btop/blob/main/Img/alt.png
Great work, it looks amazing! But what's the point of going through all the pain of rendering graphs in text? At that point, give me an actual graph. The code will be less messy and the information display will be better.

Command line tools I always install on Ubuntu servers
Btop is even more advanced than htop. It is almost like a GUI in terminal, and it feels like a dashboard of an airplane. I like it, but when I want to see what processes are using most of my resources, it is usually htop that comes to my mind and not btop, since btop shows more by default than I usually want. For more information see https://github.com/aristocratos/btop.

Harlequin.sh DuckDB IDE for your terminal
I love this and will definitely try it out! Although I admit I'm a little puzzled when people simultaneously want to do a TUI but also design things so there is generous (excessive, actually) whitespace around everything to create the illusion of "minimalism" or "comfort".
It's a TUI! It should be buzzing with numbers, packed with information, sparing with space and using every pixel possible. btop[1] is a great example imo — one of the best.

Are there an alternative to htop that lets me see the total resource usage per app?

Making Certain Programs Transparent Instead of Making Whole Terminal Transparent
So, I use stuff like cava (audio visualizer) and btop in my Alacritty Terminal (BSPWM to run cava, i had to use terminal right and cava launches in terminal, I wanted to know whether i could run my cava or btop or any other terminal application transparent without making my whole terminal transparent.

Looking for Rust Project Ideas for Semester Project - Any Suggestions?
Rewrite something like https://linux.die.net/man/1/iotop in Rust. Currently it is implemented in python, and running it as root does not give a warm fuzzy feeling.( I C version has also been made : https://github.com/Tomas-M/iotop but I have not reviewed that )

A little review of process (task) monitors and system info tools
Process monitoring is mandatory but CPU and I/O monitoring can be useful. It does a moveable window so I can watch it on a second monitor, along with other app windows, when the app I'm testing is running full screen so conky, although nice, is not quite what I need. In a terminal I use htop and/or iotop but I find graphical apps to be easier to read. I didn't want to have to compile anything or use Flatpak/Snap/AppImage/whatever but there's already a bunch of monitors in the repos so I checked them out and here's what I found.

BTOP++ is a power resource monitor for Linux
I recommend the C reimplementation of iotop btw, it has lots more features and is more efficient and is maintained. It is packaged as iotop-c in Debian and other distros.
What are some alternatives?
bpytop - Linux/OSX/FreeBSD resource monitor
bashtop - Linux/OSX/FreeBSD resource monitor
bottom - Yet another cross-platform graphical process/system monitor.
nvtop - GPU & Accelerator process monitoring for AMD, Apple, Huawei, Intel, NVIDIA and Qualcomm
glances - Glances an Eye on your system. A top/htop alternative for GNU/Linux, BSD, Mac OS and Windows operating systems.
htop - htop - an interactive process viewer
asitop - Perf monitoring CLI tool for Apple Silicon
awesome-alternatives-in-rust - A curated list of replacements for existing software written in Rust
atop - System and process monitor for Linux
conky - Light-weight system monitor for X, Wayland, and other things, too
proot-distro - An utility for managing installations of the Linux distributions in Termux.
