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.

Ask HN: What are you surprised isn’t being worked on more?
It's funny, I looked at the "Typesetting Mathematics -- User's Guide (Second Edition)" postscript document, and - at least with macOS' Preview - some big brackets are segmented (Neatroff brackets don't seem to do this, although I've seen it in other troff generated documents), and they even say this:
> Warning — square roots of tall quantities look lousy, because a root-sign big enough to cover the quantity is too dark and heavy
The solution is naturally to rewrite big roots as powers.
pic does seem close to Tikz, although I had to look in the GNU pic doco to figure out how to do colors. Even then, transparency didn't seem to be supported?
Heirloom actually looks the most useful/mature. At least the output looks pretty/someone cared enough to make the example files pretty, there's actual documentation. Limitations are still there (having to convert bitmaps to EPS?). I will say I'm at least slightly impressed by `gpresent`, which is like beamer (so for making presentations), and built-in hyphenation support.
I still don't get Neatroff. It's compatible with/implements a lot that Heirloom does, but then the font support is worse again? It's an impressive project though, the source is very readable, and RTL/LTR support. Less impressive is the lack of a license - I think it's ISC, based on a single comment, but who knows?
---
A repository and a makefile are distinctly different than an installer. Random macro packages that may or may not be on GitHub are different than `tlmgr`. Piping stuff around and having to convert images is different than just one command. GUI editors. Example documents (like https://texample.net/). That is what I mean by ecosystem.
XeTeX outputs PDFs by default (granted, via xdvipdfmx), and can also include bitmaps directly (again, granted it needs graphicx or something). All TeX stuff isn't without it's warts, and seems overly complex (pdfTeX/XeTeX/XeLaTex/LuaTeX/ConTeXt, etc). But in practice, it kinda somehow just works (until it doesn't).

Is there a browser addon which locally archives every website I visit?
Here. An archivist browser controller that caches everything you browse, a library server with full text search to serve your archive.
- Show HN: Irchiver, your full-resolution personal web archive
-
Ask HN: Full text search engine in JavaScript for English and and Chinese?
Following your "hilarious" and disrespectful answer here https://github.com/i5ik/22120/issues/63#issuecomment-7275272..., I would prefer that you remove any reference to SingleFile in the description of your project. I could not open an issue because you blocked me. And please don't accuse people without proof.
- 22120: self-host the Internet with an Offline Archive. Similar to ArchiveBox, SingleFile and WebMemex. Works well with WorldBrain/Memex to give you full-text search. Why not WARC? Uses Chrome DevTools protocol to intercept all requests, and caches responses against a key of (method, URL)
-
Request: Proxy caching all visited websites text in DB, making history searchable
https://github.com/i5ik/22120 is a tool that archives as you browse that you can then view offline later
- Is the there a way I can cache videos(reddit.4chan) I watch in browser (Linux)?

So you want to write a GUI framework
My solution to this (it's been done before), is to use the existing browser engine (not the system webview) installed. So far I only utilize Chrome, but as the way I connect to it is over the Chrome DevTools protocol which is somewhat fluent with the Remote Debugging Protocol[0] that Firefox is doing, this is a reasonable approach.
So far my "tool" to do this is simply a template repository with some conveniences, providing in essence a skeleton for these types of apps. I hope to flesh this out a little more, and expose a much richer API, as well as convert some of my existing popular apps (like 22120[1]) to the "framework".
The benefit of this is Graderjs has a built in 'app builder' that can create a cross-platform binary (excluding or ignoring the necessity (on MacOS) and near-necessity (on Windows) to sign your executable somehow, that lets you display your UI in JS/HTML/CSS using the already installed browser engine, as well as run code in NodeJS and using the rich APIs[2] of the browser engine itself. I'm really happy with this project and think that, even tho it's small now, it will in time become my most popular and powerful one: even bigger than my remote browser and popular web archiver.
Just give it time! :)
