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.

Did anybody had recently any luck using SBCL with GTK4 using sb-alien?
Wow, you asked and you got a nice answer. Cool. https://github.com/bohonghuang/cl-gtk4/issues/4

GTK4 Bindings for Common Lisp
This is neat, but the ergonomics of using the GTK4 library (especially now) does not lend itself well to being 'lisp-ified'. Just take a look at the web browser code[0], which is surprisingly short but incredibly obtuse. It's already hard enough writing GTK interfaces in expressive languages like Rust and Go, seeing it for Lisp makes me wonder who the target audience is...
That being said, we have been promised something of a redesign for GTK 4.4, I think. If they fix the weird builder/closure pattern for building UIs, I think they'll be back on track to being treated as a "real" GUI tooklit again.

Legal question on using the HyperSpec
for my editor project, I would like to embed some form of documentation for quick look-ups and the like. I think the HyperSpec would be best-suited, as it seems the most complete and is often recommended. Furthermore, they offer an offline copy for download, which is essentially a collection of HTML + CSS files. So it would be pretty straight forward to include a copy of the spec and e.g. embed it in an iframe.

Between Two Lisps (2020)
It's nice to see the CL ecosystem evolving. SBCL sees regular updates with new optimizations. The editor support is getting better: [Vim, Atom, Sublime, VSCode… have good to very good support](https://lispcookbook.github.io/cl-cookbook/editor-support.ht...), & Jupyter notebook, the Lem editor… and a new lisper started a CL editor based on Tauri: [Parrot](https://github.com/fonol/parrot). Cool projects emerge ([lisp-stats](https://github.com/Lisp-Stat/lisp-stat/), the [Sento / cl-gserver](https://github.com/mdbergmann/cl-gserver) actors library, the Kons-9 3D graphics library, the CLOG web-gui…)
> 50MB
With compression (zstd now), SBCL binaries weigh ±25MB. Start-up time is super fast. I built a standalone binary for my web app, it is straightforward to start it on the background and access it from an Electron window.
