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.

Mitigate the hidden security risks of open source software libraries
However, it's unlikely that the majority of users actually visit GitHub at https://github.com/Marak/colors.js to review the code, even at a high level. Most developers tend to rely on the assurance that open source software is generally safe to use.

Marak: The reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated
> A new feature was added to the colors.js project for generating cool ASCII Art American Flags. Unfortunately, this feature was not bug-free and some test code slipped into the release causing issues downstream. Nobody is perfect. Everyone makes mistakes from time to time.
https://github.com/Marak/colors.js/commits/master shows 4 commits and 2 releases. Does not seem like a simple mistake
> As per our internal open-source development process, I opened an Issue in colors to track the bug as soon as it was confirmed. It happened to be a weekend [...] I tagged some other open-source developers I've worked with in the past to see if they had time to assist and closed the browser tab.
- Recognize that there are many reasons that people create open source work...its a form of their self expression like Michelangelo or Salvador Dali, and nobody should complain if a metaphoric Jackson Pollock, decides to make their work resemble paint splatter instead of an architectural masterpiece.
- this thread will forever be living proof that the entire node ecosystem is a fucking dumpster fire.
- CVE-2021-23567

JavaScript News and Updates of January 2022
Early this month, the malicious attack on free-to-use libraries, namely color.js and faker.js, created a real uproar in the development community. These tools are used in thousands of projects and their downloading rate from npm is estimated in millions per week. To everyone’s surprise, it turned out to be an inside job. Marak Squires, the creator of these libraries, intentionally committed malicious code to his projects and published updated codebases on GitHub and npm. It is said that this sabotage was caused by unsuccessful attempts of Mr. Squires to monetize his projects. Fortunately, malicious packages were quickly removed and the attacker’s account was suspended. The story sparked a new wave of discussion in the development community on possible steps to make the development and maintenance of open-source projects more sustainable.

Marak, the guy behind the recent breaking of faker.js, colors.js, etc., claims that it was a "programming mistake" and wants Github to unban him.

querySrv errors when connecting to MongoDB Atlas
If your application uses MongoDB's Node.js driver or Mongoose ODM, occasionally you may observe errors such as querySrv ECONNREFUSED _mongodb._tcp.cluster0.abcde.mongodb.net or Error: querySrv ETIMEOUT _mongodb._tcp.cluster0.abcde.mongodb.net being thrown. The MongoDB Atlas documentation outlines several methods to troubleshoot connection issues, including how to handle "Connection Refused using SRV Connection String" scenarios, but why does this happen in the first place?

Mongoose Handbook
Mongoose is a popular JavaScript library used with MongoDB, a NoSQL database. It provides an elegant and user-friendly way to interact with MongoDB from Node.js applications. Mongoose offers several key benefits:

Unlocking efficient authZ with Cerbos’ Query Plan
To simplify this process, Cerbos developers have come up with adapters for popular Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) frameworks. You can check out for more details on the query plan repo - which also contains adapters for Prisma and SQLAlchemy - as well as a fully functioning application using Mongoose as its ORM.

Complete Guide to Authentication in JavaScript
After importing the mongoose module, use the [mongoose.connect()](https://mongoosejs.com/docs/api/mongoose.html#mongoose_Mongoose-connect) function to connect to the database. The first argument is the connection string, and the second argument is an object that contains the options, which are used to configure the connection. The above code logs the message, MongoDB connection is established successfully! 🎉, once the connection is successful.

Full Stack To Do list, a step-by-step tutorial
Helmet helps “sanitise” the input, which might not have come from the UI directly. Mongoose is what is known as an Object Document Modelling (ODM), which defines a structure (schema) for the stored data, making it easier to manage in Express. These additions have been omitted from our example stack purely to simplify the tutorial and focus on the fundamental tiers and interfaces.
