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.

Top 9 Architecture diagram software for cloud infrastructure
Mingrammer is an intriguing tool for individuals who prefer coding diagrams rather than creating them through graphical interfaces. It operates using Python code and offers a relatively quick setup process. It is compatible with AWS, Azure, GCP, Alibaba, and Oracle. Notably, the project is open source and has garnered significant attention on GitHub with over 31K stars.

Ask HN: Guidelines for making clear architecture diagrams
Third this. Don't look any further, just do it!
Also, PlantUML + C4 is like peanut butter & jelly:
https://github.com/plantuml-stdlib/C4-PlantUML
I'll gladly give up control of layout, and accept some ugliness, to never again have to worry about dragging boxes and arrows to be pixel-aligned, and then do it all over again when I add another box...
It looks like Mermaid has C4 support too:

Which tools do you use to create diagrams?

Add quick sketches in emacs org mode
Yes. I use this all the time for software diagramming. With c4 model (https://github.com/plantuml-stdlib/C4-PlantUML) and AWS icons (https://github.com/awslabs/aws-icons-for-plantuml)

Architecture diagrams should be code
The C4 model (https://c4model.com/) is great for architecture diagrams. You can use different tools to generate them. Here are the ones I've been using:
- https://github.com/plantuml-stdlib/C4-PlantUML
- D2 language, open source alternative to PlantUML
- Keep your diagrams updated with continuous delivery

Ask HN: Confluence Alternative(s) Supporting Markdown?
> onboarding docs
yes, they're don't changing frequently
> system design docs
yes - see C4-PlantUML[1]
> meeting notes
no, unless they're directly code related like ADRs [2,3].
Although one can abuse Github Issues + comments for this, in my opinion it's better to use modern SaaS tools for this, i.e. Loom, Descript, Linear.app, etc. - you can automate this process, e.g. transcribe the meeting's recording and add the issue/repo using Github Actions.
