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.

NIR: Nim Intermediate Representation
There has been a more-or-less working CPS implementation for Nim for a few years now,
https://github.com/nim-works/cps
https://github.com/nim-works/cps/tree/master/docs
Nobody seems to care though, as it has gained no traction at all and it has been mostly ignored by the core team.

Nim v2.0 Released
Ones that have not been mentioned so far:
nlvm is an unofficial LLVM backend: https://github.com/arnetheduck/nlvm
npeg lets you write PEGs inline in almost normal PEG notation: https://github.com/zevv/npeg
futhark provides for much more automatic C interop: https://github.com/PMunch/futhark
nimpy allows calling Python code from Nim and vice versa: https://github.com/yglukhov/nimpy
questionable provides a lot of syntax sugar surrounding Option/Result types: https://github.com/codex-storage/questionable
ratel is a framework for embedded programming: https://github.com/PMunch/ratel
cps allows arbitrary procedure rewriting to continuation passing style: https://github.com/nim-works/cps
chronos is an alternative async/await backend: https://github.com/status-im/nim-chronos
zero-functional fixes some inefficiencies when chaining list operations: https://github.com/zero-functional/zero-functional
owlkettle is a declarative macro-oriented library for GTK: https://github.com/can-lehmann/owlkettle

Nim Version 1.6 Released
* Goroutines are probably a lot more easier to use. Work is being done to make Nim even better in that area: https://github.com/nim-works/cps but don't expect it soonish.
* I feel like Go has less 'edge cases', but the Nim compiler is steadily getting more stable, especially consider it's not backed up by a major company!
* Metaprogramming is really powerful, but not beginner friendly. The documentation says use macros when necessary, but personally I don't think that really happens in practice.
The advantages by far outweigh the disadvantages, especially if you are looking for a clean Go alternative(except maaaaaaybeee web application).

Don't be that open-source user, don't be me
Thank you to the author for writing this.
Entitlement in open source is a massive problem, I have experienced it first-hand many times. The problem is that it discourages contributions not only from the existing maintainers but also from people who may volunteer to fix issues in the future. Would you be willing to contribute if most of the issues are just asking for things (often rudely) and not even saying thanks when an issue is resolved?
Unfortunately I have seen far worse examples than the one linked in the article[1]. I would encourage people to not only think twice before acting this way but to also call out people that are acting entitled in open source to discourage such actions.

Nim Version 1.6 Released
How to run those benchmarks?
At that Nim release page:
https://nim-lang.org/blog/2021/10/19/version-160-released.ht...
Is link to this benchmark:
https://web-frameworks-benchmark.netlify.app/result
Where nim is 2nd with 200k req/s, but it is using httpbeast:
https://github.com/dom96/httpbeast
That says it would be more useful to use jester:
https://github.com/dom96/jester
Jester has 150k req/s.
But, when looking at these:
https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/
dragon, actix etc has about 600k req/s .
Also redbean has about 600k req/s, when I tested:
I tested like this:
git clone https://github.com/wg/wrk.git
cd wrk
./wrk -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip' -t 12 -c 120 http://127.0.0.1:8080/
When I tested https://caddyserver.com v2, it did show about 800k req/s.
It would be very helpful to know how those benchmarks are actually done, so that I could compare what is actually fastest in real world, and not just use some for benchmark tested winning non-realistic code.
