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's the simplest static website generator?
Hugo without a theme and some simple CSS could do that.
Feel free to clone this repo: https://github.com/cpach/piper

Ask HN: What's the best place to park my inactive domains?
I would create a static site with Hugo, host the repo on GitHub and then publish it using AWS Amplify. You will probably not go over Amazon’s free tier.
If you want to quickly create a barebones Hugo site, feel free to clone this repo: https://github.com/cpach/piper
AWS Amplify is very convenient to set up.

Ask HN: Care to share your personal site?
My site is here: https://hsm.tunnel53.net/
If you want to try Hugo out, feel free to clone this repo: https://github.com/cpach/piper – It’s a very simple skeleton and you don’t even need a theme for it.
For hosting I warmly recommend AWS Amplify + GitHub.

Ask HN: Simple(st) Static Site Generator?
I find Hugo very easy to work with.
Here’s my demo site: https://github.com/cpach/piper
Only about ~30 lines of markup is needed to create a site. No theme required.
Hosting is very easy on AWS Amplify. I hear Netlify is good too.

Ask HN: What's the simplest static website generator?
I use GNU make. Write content in markdown, feed it to https://github.com/commonmark/cmark to create html. I intended to splice files together using xslt but echo and cat written in the makefile sufficed.
I'm not totally sure I'd recommend that but I do like the markdown => html flow.

Building a Personal Internet from Markdown Files
I seem to be in the middle of trying to build something similar to this. I want it to run on an android phone but otherwise the same sort of idea, offline-first information I want access to.
There's some weirdness around android browsers refusing to load html from the phone itself on security grounds. The OP uses a "progressive web app" which seems to be the proper way to do this at some point in the past, but firefox has killed that for some reason. Thus the most difficult part of the project seems to be persuading my phone to render html without copying the files to some server (or running a fileserver on the phone itself, to look at from the phone, which seems absurd).
What I can offer for people stumbling down the same path:
- Obsidian works fine as for ad hoc authoring of markdown while walking around
- It is known on stack overflow that markdown can't be sanely parsed into an AST
- That knowledge is kind of a branding misfire, the 'markdown' one is looking for is here https://github.com/commonmark/cmark
- That cmark binary + some foreach-file style script will turn markdown into html or xml. If you choose makefile and put spaces in the name of files you'll have a moderately bad few minutes cursing your tools
- Given that output xml/html, you can build whatever other html you see fit
- That html can be written back to the obsidian vault and opened by a phone browser (at least if it's a single file)
- CSS thus far appears to be required, I was really hoping to annotate the html instead
First 90% done here, second 90% to go.

Using Rust with Elixir for code reuse and performance
Yeah no doubt it, although in this case the C implementation has been a long running project that's under the official commonmark GitHub repo at https://github.com/commonmark/cmark.
But I think the most important thing here is an Elixir NIF already exists to use it. The blog post as is leaves readers having to implement ~100 lines of Elixir code to use the Rust version because the authors of blog post didn't include that in the article, or open source it as a library for others to use.
So from a reader's POV, if your goal is to get a highly stable, fast and safe Markdown parser running in Elixir, the Elixir cmark library I linked in a parent comment solves that problem out of the box.

How do I link and use a c library?
I'm confused about how to use a c library (specifically, cmark) from zig.

My favorite cli/tui programs:
Writing Documents Markdown (and md2pdf or cmark + html2ps + ps2pdf) / plain text / groff

Presenting SwiftDown my markdown live editor package
It's built on top of cmark which make it fast, and use pure markdown without any proprietary format. It currently supports both macOS and iOS.
-
Thoughts on lex/GNU Flex?
However, writing a proper markdown parser is quite difficult as you have to support nesting and many weird corner cases. So, if you do not need to write your own parser (e.g. for learning purposes), it would be a lot easier to use an existing parser and write a custom renderer for roff. Some such parsers are cmark, commonmark.js, and goldmark.

My stack will outlive yours
I just use the small reference C implementation of CommonMark and it works great:
https://github.com/commonmark/cmark
There is an example where you load it via shared library in Python, i.e. send a Markdown string and get back an HTML string.
