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.

Prioritizing Concurrent Requests: Queuing system to handle distributed processes and messages with NodeJS and Bull
To implement the solution with a queue, I used a package called 'Bull' (https://github.com/OptimalBits/bull). It's a library that helps with distributed job control, providing some very useful solutions for this type of work, such as background job processing, queues with priorities (FIFO, LIFO, and others), among other features. 'Bull' uses Redis for queue storage, so if your application crashes for any reason, once it's back online, it will continue executing the processes that are in the queue. In our case, we'll use the FIFO (First in, first out) queue solution, meaning priority based on arrival order.

How do you handle queues in Node.js? Have you ever tried using pgboss?
I'm working on a large ETL project that involves handling queues for file integration. Currently, we are using Redis with Bull (https://www.npmjs.com/package/bull) for this purpose. However, to streamline our architecture and address security concerns, we are considering migrating the queue to PostgreSQL.

Learning Guidance
For Node specifically, things like Streams, understanding the asynchronous model completely, and the event loop. Also, queues tend to get used a lot in Node, so understanding the basic concepts behind that and how to use something like bull would be useful.

image processing in express application, should it be done in a separate thread?
To do this properly, you need to put the task into queue, so if there are 1000 simultaneous uploads it won't kill your server but will be processed one by one. For the queue, see bull. Image hostings like AWS have some functionality for processing on their side, as an option.

How do I implement Heroku background processes?
This is a memory intensive process though and Heroku is OOM'ing with R14 errors. For this they recommend migrating intensive work like this to a Background Job via Redis, implemented in Bull and Throng

Should you use jest as a testing library?
For example, Fastify removed the instanceof operatorfrom its codebase because it was causing problems for those developers that rely on jest as a testing framework.
- Is this a valid reason to give up node?

Next JS vs Nest JS
Both are frameworks but NextJs is for Forntend (web app in browser that use ReactJs under the hood) and NestJs is for Backend (server app running on a server witch use Express or Fastify). The only thing similar between them is the typed language in which they were written.

Building a modern gRPC-powered microservice using Node.js, Typescript, and Connect
In setting out to build this service, we wanted to use gRPC for its APIs. We’ve been reaching for REST when building APIs so far, primarily out of necessity, i.e., our public APIs needed auto-generated client SDKs and docs for developers working with them. We built those APIs with Fastify and Typebox but felt burned by a code-first approach to generating an OpenAPI spec. I’ll spare you the details and save that experience/learning for another article. Suffice it to say we love gRPC’s schema-first approach. This blog post summarizes our feelings well
