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.

MakeMake: Generate make files from C source code
Or even better, fswatch (https://github.com/emcrisostomo/fswatch) which works on Linux, BSDs, macOS, Windows, and even Solaris

Are there any CLIs or good ways on macOS to real-time / continuously sync two folders on the same drive?
If you don’t mind shell shell scripting you can use something like fswatch and some shell logic to do something similar.

File System Watcher
Well, I am not too lazy to search but I was interested in your experience, especially with reliability.
This one looks interesting: https://github.com/emcrisostomo/fswatch

Kubernetes Reload/Restart pod on file changes
What about using https://github.com/emcrisostomo/fswatch ?

Watchman: Execute a command when something changes
The required kernel hooks exist in pretty much any common OS these days, it is a user-space tool that is sometimes missing.
It may not be installed by default, but inotifywait is available in common Linux distributions, usually in a package called something like ionotify-tools, and has been for over a decade-ana-half IIRC. It'll work under WSL on Windows too, though only for ext4 devices not bits of the Windows filesystem made available to Linux.
I can't speak to what other OSs include by default, but as every major OS has a different API for defining how to register a lister and how it gets messages no built-in tool is going to be cross platform. There are third party tools which present more cross-platform consistency, most notably https://github.com/emcrisostomo/fswatch#readme (also available in common Linux distros, just an apt install away in Debian for instance).

Build a Rails script watcher/runner using fswatch
fswatch is a cross-platform file change monitor. It will watch any files you specify, then run a script on change.
- Is there a way to trigger an action when a file is transfered via another computer?
-
Script only runs when it sees new file that fits criteria help needed
You can do this without polling using a util like fswatch: https://github.com/emcrisostomo/fswatch

GhostSCAD: Marrying OpenSCAD and Golang
> It watches source files, and regenerates the OpenSCAD files automatically
inotify() is awesome. Here's a library in python that does it.
https://michaelcho.me/article/using-pythons-watchdog-to-moni...
There's also inotifywatch on linux and fswatch on mac. I'm sure there's alternatives for BSD Unix and Windows, but I care the least about those OS's.

Optimizing templates
For development it's easy to just ParseFiles before every Execute to be sure you have the latest version. But for production something else is needed, fx watch for changes in files and have this trigger a reload (fx using https://github.com/emcrisostomo/fswatch).

Best way to "watch" files with no daemon running?
If you want to have some long running program that constantly watches the file then there is the inotify crate, but I don't know if there is an async equivalent
What are some alternatives?
