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.

Overmind, a better foreman or bin/dev for your Procfile
I was confused because there is https://github.com/ddollar/foreman and https://github.com/theforeman/foreman
-
Ask HN: CLI tool like Docker-compose but fully local?
Are you looking for something like https://github.com/ddollar/foreman?
-
Spin up your development background processes with ease
Btw, there's a large number of tools that use the Procfile file format, including what appears to be the original one, written in Ruby https://github.com/ddollar/foreman (the readme has links to a partial list of foreman clones)
But I agree that overmind is the best of the bunch

Setup TailwindCSS, postcss and esbuild on Rails 7
We ran our app via bin/dev. You can find the div file inside ./bin/dev folder. It is a ruby wrapper over the process manager forman which manages Procfile-based applications. Rails automatically install foreman gem but it doesn’t bundle it because forman recommends NOT to do 🚫

Ruby on Rails tutorial: Getting started with Contentful
Note: Alternatively, you can install Foreman on your computer and execute the ./bin/dev command to simultaneously generate the TailwindCSS classes and also run the Rails server in a single terminal.

why doesnt localhost reflect my changes after clearing cache with my Reactjs app
using foreman with the foreman start -f Procfile.dev command to start my app.

Simpler Dev Environments with Procfiles
Obviously, we still need to install a runner to handle this procfile. Meet foreman, or one of it's forks. Foreman is a Ruby script, so for that you'll need to have Ruby installed. There are many forks though. Such as shoreman, which is a dependency free shell script, or node-foreman, which is a javascript fork. I go with node-foreman, for the simple reason that I'm a node guy and I like that I can npm install it to the dependencies of my node projects.

Using Foreman to start services in development
Comes Foreman to the rescue! Foreman is a gem (for Ruby, but it already ported to many others languages) that will load a Procfile and start/stop the services configured by demand.

Managing Javascript the easy way in Rails 7
A bin/dev file - This should be how you run your application in development. It runs (and optionally installs if you don't have it) Foreman, so you can run your server and build Javsacript on the fly

Launching Multiple Processes with a Single Command in Rails
So far, whenever I started the Rails app, I launched these supporting processes in multiple terminal windows. This week, I learned a new way to do this using a single command using the Foreman gem, which has saved me a lot of time.
importmap-rails
-
The Rails asset pipeline, old and new
It is implemented as a thor task in lib/importmap/cmmands.rb
-
RubyJS-Vite
With importmaps (https://github.com/rails/importmap-rails) and Hotwire (https://hotwired.dev/), you write plain js and serve it.
Also packages are served via CDN. There is no tree shaking. Rails got rid of the whole bundling step.

First commits in a Ruby on Rails app
Importmap audit - “checks the NPM registry for known security issues”

Asset compilation taking ~ 12 mins
It worked, but JS changes were not coming through. Digging into the Importmap docs (see 'sweeping the cache', it monitors changes according to the setting config.importmap.cache_sweepers. So, by adding the locations where I have my JS files, I also got JS changes passed through.
-
Is the default importmap method unrealistic in the most popular real world use cases?
You can't use TypeScript, or anything that requires pre-compile, with importmap. answered issue
-
Ruby on Rails with React on Typescript using importmaps
Let's begin by installing the necessary dependencies. The first gem generates the importmap object, manages caching, and helps with library installations, among other things. I recommend reading the entire readme to become familiar with its capabilities. The second gem will be discussed later, it is used to compile JSX files. Gemfile

Pirep.io collects the unpublished, local knowledge on public, private, and unmapped airport that anyone can contribute to
Yeah, those were brand new right around the time I started this project a few years ago with Rails 7 (or was it 6.1?). I actually ended up removing them in favor of importmap-rails since I wanted as simple of a frontend as possible and I wasn't sure of relying on what was, at the time, a brand new way of doing frontend work. Things change so quickly in JS-land that I'm always hesitant to make something a dependency unless it has a strong track record of being continuously maintained.

- Simple Modern JavaScript Using JavaScript Modules and Import Maps
-
A powerful search feature with what Rails provides out of the box
Also, installing StimulusReflex seems quite not easy for the moment: It seems there are some quirks along the way if you're using import-maps for managing javascript dependencies as I do. Embracing the Rails way at least prevents you from this sort of issue.
