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.

Ask HN: What apps have you created for your own use?
I created an open source library that turns structured text data (YAML) in a Git repository on the fly into a GraphQL API with CRUD queries / mutations.
All that is needed in the repository is a plain text GraphQL schema file that defines what the data structures look like. The Git repository itself can be located on GitHub, GitLab, or in the local filesystem.

Ask HN: Tell us about your project that's not done yet but you want feedback on
I'm working on https://commitspark.com , a headless CMS where all data is stored in a GitHub repository with branching/merging workflow support for content.
Reading/writing content from/to GitHub happens through an Open Source API library I released. For the content data schema, I simply require a plaintext GraphQL type file inside the repository. The schema then automatically determines the API structure as well as the editor-friendly UI that I can generate on the Commitspark website when you log in via GitHub.
Even though Commitspark is already publicly available, it is still 100% a side-project that doesn't earn me any money (yet).

Show HN: I Turned GitHub into a CMS
Hi HN,
I built Commitspark, a Git-based headless CMS that runs on top of GitHub.
The primary purpose is to enable non-technical content editors to take advantage of Git workflows based on branches, pull requests and merges, without them having to learn Git.
Behind the scenes, everything content-related is driven by GraphQL and an open source library I released ( https://github.com/commitspark/graphql-api ), and for all the workflow features like PRs, commenting and diffs, I built a CMS-centric view onto GitHub using the GitHub API.
For content editors, this should feel the same as working in any other headless CMS, except now with support for much more powerful workflows. For developers, this means all the strengths of Git and GitHub can now also be applied to content (pipelines, tags, commit hashes for caching, branches for migrations, etc.).
There are many other things I am also excited about here that I'm happy to discuss, so please leave your questions below.

Vercel Visual Editing: Click-to-edit content for headless CMSes
Have you considered that content might come from Git? If so, how would content branches fit into this?
(Disclosure: I'm building a library that turns a Git repository into a branch-enabled GraphQL content management API. See https://github.com/contentlab-sh/contentlab )

Show HN: CLI for generating beautiful PDF for offline reading
Somewhat similarly, I wrote a web app to generate epub (instead of pdf) out of urls and send to eink reader(s) directly (via a telegram bot) so I can read them. Currently it supports sending epub by email (for kindle) or uploading epub to dropbox (for kobo, etc.). It originally also supports reMarkable cloud but we can no longer make reMarkable cloud actually work. There's also a REST api to generate epub to be downloaded directly: https://github.com/fishy/url2epub/blob/main/REST.md
For e-ink readers epubs are generally better than PDFs for urls anyways, as epubs are basically packed htmls, and also the flow text works better on smaller screens.

Ask HN: Tell us about your project that's not done yet but you want feedback on
I wrote a service (Google Cloud Run as the backend, with Telegram bot as the frontend) to generate readable ePub from URLs and send directly to e-ink readers. It was originally wrote for reMarkable 2 (using reMarkable cloud), I recently added support for Kindle (by using the send-to-kindle emails). The code is at https://github.com/fishy/url2epub and I blogged about the recently added kindle support at https://b.yuxuan.org/url2epub-kindle.
I'm open to suggestions on what other e-ink platforms to add, as long as they have a reasonable cloud API. I'm also looking for a good e-ink platform to move to personally, as it becomes apparent that reMarkable really doesn't want third parties to use their proprietary cloud "API".

ReMarkable 2
2. It's a relatively open system (compared to other e-ink readers), so it's pretty fun in terms of hackability.
I did get the forever free subscription which helps, but I also totally understand why they would want to charge for that, and I think the new $3/month is a pretty reasonable price for it.
Regarding instapaper use case and also hackability, shameless plug: I wrote https://github.com/fishy/url2epub for my own use case, so instead of relying on a third party service and manually sync stuff to reMarkable 2, I just send the link to the telegram bot (I picked telegram bot so that I can easily send links from my phone, not only desktops), and the epub will be auto synced to my reMarkable cloud account (they did made some changes to the cloud api causing I have to manually open their official mobile or desktop app to sync once before the reMarkable 2 itself would accept the new epub I uploaded through url2epub, haven't figured out how to avoid that yet, but it's still mostly automated).

For reMarkable, I also wrote a Telegram bot to convert http url into ePub and send to reMarkable directly: https://github.com/fishy/url2epub
(if you don't like telegram or don't use reMarkable, it also comes with a public rest API to generate epub out of urls)

Show HN: Epub.to – ePub to pdf, ePub to mobi, ePub to kindle, and an ePub API
Shameless plug and this is only loosely related: Over the last holiday season I wrote a backend (written in Go and running on App Engine) to convert http url into epub. The frontend is a telegram bot that sends the epub to your reMarkable account directly, but it also has rest api to download the epub file: https://github.com/fishy/url2epub/blob/main/REST.md

Show HN: Create ePub Out of URL
With the purchase of reMarkable 2, I have this need to easily send web articles to my reMarkable 2 from my phone, while officially they only provided a Chrome extension, which can only be used on desktops.
As a result I wrote some go code (https://github.com/fishy/url2epub) for the past 2 days, to generate ePub from URL. I also implemented reMarkable API to send them to reMarkable tablets directly.
The current UI for it is implemented as a Telegram bot (https://t.me/url2rM_bot?start=1), running on AppEngine (code: https://github.com/fishy/url2epub/tree/main/appengine). I initially considered making an Android app for the UI, but decided that Telegram bot is less work for me, and works good enough for this use case (sorry for people who don't use Telegram, but this also means that people on iOS, desktop, etc. will be able to use it).
For the future, I might do:
- Expand the URLs supported (currently it only supports URLs with an AMP version provided, and the AMP version does have article tag inside)
What are some alternatives?
