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.

Django 5.0 Is Released
Congrats on the release to the Django community!
If anyone is curious, I updated my Django / Docker starter kit app to use Django 5.0 at: https://github.com/nickjj/docker-django-example
It pulls together gunicorn, Celery, Redis, Postgres, esbuild and Tailwind with Docker Compose. It's set up to run in both development and production.

What's the correct way to install or version up packages when using Docker and Poetry?
For example I edit the regular non-lock file and then run ./run pip3:install from my host which handles the above. A repo with an example Django project in Docker can be found here https://github.com/nickjj/docker-django-example. There's a pip3-install script in the bin/ directory, you can replace that with Poetry commands instead.

Docker advantages for a single developer?
Currently, I'm using a modified version of this Docker setup (https://github.com/nickjj/docker-django-example) to work locally and build/deploy a production image. However, using PyCharm as my IDE, the development process is incredibly slow, especially when adding or removing Python packages. It takes at least 3 minutes to rebuild the Docker image after adding a package, and PyCharm has to update its index. Additionally, PyCharm's inspector sometimes gets confused about which packages are already installed based on the requirements.txt.

psycopg2 in production
If you're using Docker with a Debian based image you only need to apt install libpq-dev and you're good to go, it only needs to exist in your Docker image not your VPS directly. I've been using it for years. Here's a working example if you want to poke around https://github.com/nickjj/docker-django-example.

How to Dockerize any Django Application: A Step-by-Step Tutorial
On a positive note, I would recommend perhaps looking at https://github.com/nickjj/docker-django-example for a good, somewhat beginner guide for django + docker work.

What is your development cycle when using docker and containers? What's the general flow between developing locally and running the containers to test.
I put together https://github.com/nickjj/docker-django-example which pulls together a typical Django set up using Gunicorn, Celery, Postgres, Redis, esbuild and Tailwind.

We Have to Talk About Flask
I've been maintaining my Build a SAAS App with Flask video course[0] for 8 years. It has gone from pre-1.0 to 2.3 and has been recorded twice with tons of incremental updates added over the years to keep things current.
In my opinion tutorial creators should pin their versions so that anyone taking the course or going through the tutorial will have a working version that matches the video or written material.
I'm all for keeping things up to date and do update things every few months but rolling updates don't tend to work well for tutorials because sometimes a minor version requires a code change or covering new concepts. As a tutorial consumer it's frustrating when the content doesn't match the source code unless it's nothing but a version bump.
I've held off upgrading Flask to 3.0 and Python 3.12 due to these open issues with 3rd party dependencies https://github.com/nickjj/docker-flask-example/issues/17.

Working with Docker Containers Made Easy with the Dexec Bash Script
I usually end up with project specific "run" scripts which are just shell scripts so I can do things like `./run shell` to drop into the shell of a container, or `./run rails db:migrate` to run a command in a container.
Here's a few project specific examples. They all have similar run scripts:

Act: Run your GitHub Actions locally
This is what I do except I use a shell script instead of a Makefile.
A working example of this is at: https://github.com/nickjj/docker-flask-example/blob/912388f3...
Those ./run ci:XXX commands are in: https://github.com/nickjj/docker-flask-example/blob/912388f3...
I like it because if CI ever happens to be down I can still run that shell script locally.

How boring should your team be
> I've encountered a code written in the 12factor style of using environment variables for configuration, and in that particular case there was no validation nor documentation of the configuration options. Is this typical?
I don't know about typical, it comes down to how your team values the code they write.
You can have a .env.example file commit to version control which explains every option in as much or as little detail as you'd like. For my own personal projects, I tend to document this file like this https://github.com/nickjj/docker-flask-example/blob/main/.en....

The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Makefiles
I did this for a while but make isn't well suited for this use case. What I end up doing is have a shell script with a bunch of functions in it. Functions automatically becomes a callable a command (with a way to make private functions if you want) with pretty much no boiler plate.
The benefit of this is it's just shell scripting so you can use shell features like $@ to pass args to another command or easily source and deal with env vars.
I've written about this process at https://nickjanetakis.com/blog/replacing-make-with-a-shell-s... and an example file is here https://github.com/nickjj/docker-flask-example/blob/main/run.
