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.

- emacs-async: Simple library for asynchronous processing in Emacs
-
Is there any way to run an emacs function as a separate process?
That is probably the simplest option possible; but if you need non-blocking evaluation, async package is definitely a better option.
-
Is it possible for Emacs Lisp to get something like multiprocessing from Python?
You already can. Using https://github.com/jwiegley/emacs-async or https://github.com/chuntaro/emacs-promise.
-
How to turn sequential computation into parallel computation in Elisp?
IMO the best option currently is async by Wiegley. It will manage Emacs instances for you and do all the low-level synchronization and messaging for you, so you can work in higher level abstractions as if you are working with threads.
-
Asynchronous alternative to xref?
Have you checked the async package?
-
Lsp-Bridge, Not Even Wrong
That is quite normal thing to do. Have you not seen Emacs Async? Take, a look, it is a useful thing. Or Emacs Request. Since Emacs does not have proper thread scheduler, that is the best next thing you can do.

[ANN] Blamer 0.6.0 released. Added pretty avatar preview
There are ways to avoid this, have you tried e.g. https://github.com/jwiegley/emacs-async ?

Video Series: Denote as a Zettelkasten
As a note about the third video, and searching for backlinks; the volume, when you get there, might be a slow-down when you work with many small files, like searching for backlinks. Each note means a separate file access, search process, etc. It is much more efficient for computers to read one big file, then many small files, and then just use Emacs to search in that file. If you are a developer of Denote, you might wish to look at asynchronous processes or perhaps use Wigleys Async package to search for backlinks asynchronously.
-
Setting up a fundraiser for multi-threaded Emacs, any thoughts on this?
Async process can do that. Have you checked async library by Wiegley? You can use another emacs process as a sort of clean interpreter thread similar to javascript workers.

My IDE is too heavy so I moved to Emacs
That "99% of standard usage" is the kicker, isn't it? Those greybeards who always opposed multithreading since long ago tend to say that the remaining 1% of use cases is best done in an external process, ideally not even written in Emacs Lisp, so that the rest of the open source community can benefit, like the GNU Global you mention. I suppose if you still want that program to be written with Emacs Lisp, you could use async.el (https://github.com/jwiegley/emacs-async/) and there's finally an use-case for the threads: it'll be relatively safe to run those 16 threads only in the external Emacs-process.

WASI 0.2.0 and Why It Matters
> As a thought experiment, we're almost there! We could technically have `win95.img + bochs86vm.wasm + autorun.inf + msword.exe` wrapped in a "browser evaluator"
I looked into this and... holy crap! We are there. Not for modern programs quite yet, sure, but this is amazing. You can use Windows 2000 from your browser.

Is offline-first not enough? Do we need "serverfree"?
I think you are looking for Shadow.

Wonder if you could put all those databases in a Linux image and boot it using v86 [0], eliminating the need for a server.

Kolibri OS: fits on a floppy disk, programmed using interrupts
Trying it out in https://copy.sh/v86/?profile=kolibrios , it's also clearly a love letter to Windows 95 in particular. That could be an unstated goal here, create a very particular PC experience under very particular constraints. I don't know anything about the creator but it's very possible that this kind of work was actually their career in the 90s.
It's incredible how much work was done. Maybe this should be an internet curiosity like how TempleOS has become, though Terry's personality was a unique factor.

VMware is now part of Broadcom
hmm, why would people still use VMWare? Isn't vbox open source, or even things such as https://copy.sh/v86/ would do most virtualization trick now days?

Running Windows 98 on the Browser
Oh, there are more OSes one can use at the parent page:

- SerenityOS <3
- and even ReactOS
