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.

Hurl, run and test HTTP requests with plain text
Great tool and documentation <3
Started investigating how it can be integrated into GitLab CI/CD in the most efficient way.
Simple - install Hurl using before_script every time into the used container image. Example in https://gitlab.com/everyonecancontribute/dev/hurl-playground...
Efficient - build a custom container image (the upstream container image behaves unexpected when overriding the entrypoint for CI/CD, need to investigate and create an issue) Example in https://gitlab.com/everyonecancontribute/dev/hurl-playground...
A quick example to check the website body can be achieved with
$ vim dnsmichi.at.hurl

Cucumber Maintainer out of Job and future of the project is uncertain
This is why we need better tools which will give benefits for the added complexity. If you need to create both the feature files AND the code, it's just complexity with little benefits. But frameworks like https://github.com/karatelabs/karate or https://github.com/Endava/cats are hiding this complexity and remove the code layer entirely. Which, in my view, this is where you need to be in 2023, particularly for API testing.

Lama2: Plain-Text Powered REST API Client for Teams
Congrats on the launch ! I'm the lead dev of [Karate](https://github.com/karatelabs/karate) and was wondering if you had come across it. I strongly agree that collaboration should be [via Git](https://www.karatelabs.io/first-class-citizens) and the IDE and traditional solutions fall short. I hope Karate's syntax passes your "memory friendly" test :) We get regular feedback is that it is easy to read and even non-programmers can pick it up. One thing I feel we do really well is chaining of HTTP requests. And we have plugins for [IntelliJ](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/19232-karate) and [VS Code](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=karatela...).
Maintaining a tool like this as open-source is hard, all the best !
