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.

Show HN: Flox 1.0 – Open-source dev env as code with Nix
How does Flox compare to Devbox? https://github.com/jetpack-io/devbox
- Instant, easy, and predictable development environments on any machine

PackagingCon – a conference only for software package management
I've spent the last year managing all my packages with Devbox (https://github.com/jetpack-io/devbox).
Local dev, cloud dev, CI, production – all with the same config file. Fingers crossed my talk submission for PackagingCon gets accepted. It'd be awesome to share this new way of working with a wider audience.

NixOS and My Descent into Insanity
> Now to figure out what a "flake" is…
Flake is a worthwhile addition to Nix that is worth learning. But like anything Nixian, it's not straightforward.
Have you checked out any of the tools that aim to simplify Nix experience? We built Devbox (https://github.com/jetpack-io/devbox) with this in mind.

TySON: a native go library that lets you use TypeScript as an embedded configuration language without depending on Node or V8
Also devbox ( https://github.com/jetpack-io/devbox ) which is what this is for does not work on windows because of its Nix dependency.

Simplifying preview environments for everyone
For these reasons, I believe most developer environments should prioritize developer experience over fidelity. Tools like Containerized development environments and cloud emulators can strike the right balance and there’s no surprise that we see increased activity around devcontainers, and similar solutions.

Codespaces but open-source, client-only, and unopinionated
Local first, cloud optional is the only way (IMHO) we're going to get people off their local laptop development setups.
We need to support local dev environments first, with the exact same config a developer can then move to the cloud.
See https://github.com/jetpack-io/devbox for how this can be achieved and https://www.mikenikles.com/blog/dev-environments-in-the-clou... for my thoughts after 3 years of working in this space.

Why did Nix adopt Flakes?
If you like the properties of Nix, but find it confusing, you should check out Devbox! It simplifies the process of creating Nix-powered dev environments:

NixTest: a tiny unit testing framework written in pure nix
As part of the work we've been doing with [devbox](https://github.com/jetpack-io/devbox), we needed a unit testing framework to test some of our nix code. Unfortunately we had some use cases where we did *not* want to introduce a dependency on `nixpkgs` (and therefore we couldn't use `runTests`).

Docker's deleting Open Source images and here's what you need to know
You might be interested in Devbox (http://jetpack.io/devbox)! We built Devbox because we were frustrated with our Docker based dev environments, and our goal is to provide the power of Nix with a more accessible interface (similar to yarn or other package managers).
We're open source and rapidly adding features, you can check us out on Github at https://github.com/jetpack-io/devbox

Ask HN: What to do with small units of time during the working day?
Could improve that crappy feedback loop :)
If the language runtimes are compiled you can't do this, but if not, in theory you shouldn't need such a stupidly long core development feedback loop.
I'm a huge fan of https://tilt.dev/ and the possibilities it unlocks for that pre-commit development.

Uber Migrates 4000 Microservices to a New Multi-Cloud Platform
Something like https://tilt.dev/ where you spin up a subset of the service graph in a cloud environment that hot-reloads based on local edits.
-
Simplifying preview environments for everyone
To get a similar experience of preevy up, first we’ll need to split the build and deploy using process or alternatively employ tools that orchestrate build-tag-push-update-sync flow like Skaffold/Tilt.
-
Codespaces but open-source, client-only, and unopinionated
It's not a direct competitor, but we use https://tilt.dev/ at my company for local and remote development.

Why I recommended ECS instead of Kubernetes to my latest customer
For local testing you use tilt that runs stateful services locally in a kind k8s cluster. That same config can deploy to a remote k8s server to easily share a preview of new features, which is useful for prototyping things that might not necessarily ever be merged.
-
Local development set up for microservices with Kubernetes - Skaffold
There are dedicated tools just for that. Apart from skaffold check also tilt.dev, garden.io, devspace.sh, okteto.com
-
First K8s project
You basically start by downloading kind, then tilt. Then create a kind cluster with the provided configuration in the tilt repo. Then run tilt up and that's it. You'll have a fully functional Kubernetes cluster and project running complete with deployments and services. Nothing too fancy, no RBAC, no network policies etc.. Just the bare minimum to get you up and running.

Devcontainers in k8s
I recommend also looking into tilt.

KubeProject: A distributed multi-service project on Kubernetes as a playground for beginners
Second, and perhaps the best of all is, that I created a tilt repository located here.
-
Throwaway preconfigured local kubernetes environments
But apart from the other "k8s in a box" options (like minikube, k0s, ...) you could also have a look at tilt (https://tilt.dev/), it sounds like this might be a good fit for your use case as well.
