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.

- I left Emacs and Org-Mode 8 months ago and switched to more modern note-taking tools. But yesterday I came back to it, and now I feel at home.

Add quick sketches in emacs org mode
https://github.com/misohena/el-easydraw is like 4/5 of the way there, check it out
- dead simple way to put images in org files?
-
Embed excalidraw in Emacs?
https://github.com/misohena/el-easydraw is a cool proof of concept, but on installing it was practically unusable for me. Probably some setting on the preview size made the canvas too small, and the mouse did not line up with the icons to add things to the canvas. Still, amazing this is even possible!

Initial Thoughts On A New Productivity Tool
I had not thought of this. I found this editor as well which looks promising. I’ll try it out.
-
I am kinda surprised there is not a huge FOSS competitor in the PDF "Annotation" field
And with org-noter one can easily interface with org-mode, and then maybe some more.

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:

Documentation as Code for Cloud - C4 Model & Structurizr
C4-PlantUML: Export your model as C4-PlantUML diagrams.

Which tools do you use to create diagrams?
PlantUML + C4 plugin;
-
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
- What FOSS programs would you recommend for creating concept maps on Linux?

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.
