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.

Devbox: Instant, easy, and predictable shells and containers
We use something similar at our company, although maybe with not such a nice UX: https://github.com/T-Systems-MMS/docker-management-container
This installs certain tools like helm, terraform or kubectl in the specified version as well as python dependencies or ansible roles and collections in a container to use on your laptop or in cicd-pipelines.
Another nice addition for this is https://github.com/upciti/wakemeops, that provides apt-repository for many tools from the Cloud landscape.

How I use Devbox in my Elm projects
Before I went on my Christmas vacation last year I wrote an article on how I use Nix in my Elm projects. At the time, I was pleased with my set up. However, not even a month would go by before my satisfaction was questioned. In early January, Carlo Ascani asked a question, on the Elm Discourse, about his Umbra project. I decided to explore his project and I soon discovered two files, devbox.json and devbox.lock, I had never seen before. This piqued my curiosity and I had to learn more. I followed the link to the Devbox website and feverishly read the docs. I... was... hooked. I was pleasantly surprised by its simplicity and it seemed to fit my use cases really well.

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`).
What are some alternatives?
