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.

Using GitLab Kubernetes Runners to Build Melange Packages
Recently, I came across Chainguard and wrote the article How to build Docker Images with Melange and Apko. As a fervent supporter of Kubernetes and GitLab CI, I was eager to experiment with building images using Melange in this particular setup. GitLab's shared Runners work seamlessly with Bubblewrap, eliminating the need for additional configurations. This post is intended for enthusiasts like myself, interested in hosting their own Kubernetes Runners and leveraging the Kubernetes Runner Type of Melange.

A Study of Malicious Code in PyPI Ecosystem
```
This is basically manually invoking what Flatpak does:
https://github.com/containers/bubblewrap
This is also useful for more than just security. E.G., you can test how your app would behave on a fresh install by masking your user configuration files. I personally also have a tool that uses it to basically bundle all dependencies from an entire Linux distribution in order to make highly portable AppImages— Been meaning to post that, will get around to it eventually maybe.
The flags above should hide your user data (`--tmpfs`), disable network access (`--unshare-all`), hide/virtualize devices and OS state (`--dev` and `--proc`), and make the rest of the root filesystem read-only (`--ro-bind`— Including the insecure X11 socket in `/tmp`, which you might want to expose for GUI apps).
Check them against `bwrap --help`; I might have omitted one or two more things you'd need.

Firejail: Light, featureful and zero-dependency security sandbox for Linux
While trying to find out more comparison information, found this light on details issue:
https://github.com/containers/bubblewrap/issues/81
It mentions nsjail and minijail.

Sandboxing C++, Rust, Python Code?
I am currently working on a code execution engine (also written in Rust) which uses nsjail for sandboxing and gnu time for measuring time and memory usage under the hood. You can run arbitrary code simply using a rest api and there is also a client library for Rust. It can already run C++, Rust and Python (and a few other languages) while allowing you to specify multiple source files, environment variables, command line arguments, standard input and resource limits (e.g. time, memory, maximum number of processes and whether network access is allowed or not). After running the program, the engine reports exit codes, outputs (stdout and stderr) and the amount of resources the program used.
