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.

Resolved an issue in gflags which has been opened for about 7 years
Someone opened an issue at https://github.com/gflags/gflags/issues/76, to request for a feature of flag alias, and it has been opened for about 7 years.

Why Do Long Options Start with Two Dashes?
Google's command line flags library, known to the public as absl::Flags and formerly gflags, does not distinguish between --foo and -foo, these are both the flag "foo". Each flag has a unique name so there is never a short -f equivalent to --foo, and -foo can never mean -f -o -o.
The main design motivation of absl::Flags is that the flag definitions can appear in any module, not just main. Go inherits this. A quirk that Go did not inherit is gflags --nofoo alternate form of --foo=false.
This is all documented at https://gflags.github.io/gflags/#commandline, which is pretty much a literal export of the flags package documentation that a Google engineer would see internally.

Things I've learned about building CLI tools in Python
I have been using Typer on every one of my CLI projects which uses Click under the hood. The documentation is fantastic, the CLI app it produces looks great and lets you create things quickly. I high recommend it.

Things to do with standalone script
Adding CLI capabilities. My preferred library here is typer.

Where to start for managing a Python code base for public distribution
I just heard about this but it seems to be pretty much the type of thing you want and want fast.

Help on Docstrings
Docstrings are for documenting how a function/ class/ method/ module works. Often you don't need to add a docstring to your main function because no one will be importing it to use elsewhere. And if you want it to run as a CLI, then there are better ways to document the available options. For example, typer does most of it for you, or in click you add the help text to the decorator.

Which best practices do you follow to build robust & extensible ETL jobs?
Most computing tasks in airflow DAGs are KubernetesPodOperator containing a CLI (Python Typer). It allows us to pass arguments easily to run DAG manually if needed (the new UI to pass arguments to DAG in airflow 2.6 is really nice). Arguments allow us to replay DAG easily (change start / end dates for instance).

Devs on teams that deploy anytime you want, what does your SDLC workflow look like?
So it's basically the main .gitlab-ci.yml file plus a separate Python CI app using Typer for the AWS instrumentation.

The different uses of Python type hints
Similarly for Typer, which is literally "the FastAPI of CLIs"[1]. Handy to type your `main` parameters and have CLI argument parsing. For more complicated cases, it's a wrapper around Click.

Command line parser library, which one do you like the most, regardless of language?
interesting that you hate python, but love Click. Did you try Typer which uses Click underneath?
What are some alternatives?
Boost.Program_options - Boost.org program_options module
click - Python composable command line interface toolkit
jarro2783/cxxopts - Lightweight C++ command line option parser
Python Fire - Python Fire is a library for automatically generating command line interfaces (CLIs) from absolutely any Python object.
CLI11 - CLI11 is a command line parser for C++11 and beyond that provides a rich feature set with a simple and intuitive interface.
Gooey - Turn (almost) any Python command line program into a full GUI application with one line
args - A simple header-only C++ argument parser library. Supposed to be flexible and powerful, and attempts to be compatible with the functionality of the Python standard argparse library (though not necessarily the API).
rich - Rich is a Python library for rich text and beautiful formatting in the terminal.
