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.

Best way to setup Nvim on NixOS?
Power user, gvolpe has a great config that heavily customizes nvim.

Adding a Flake to my Config
I forked and customized a fairly advanced Nixos configuration that I can load from a flake on github. (Mine | Original)

Host-specific settings (different approaches)
I think gvolpe's nix-config repo is what u/ppen9u1n was referencing. Looks like there might be some good ideas to mine there.

Nix-GUI: Make NixOS usable for non-technical users through settings / GUI
I think NixOS would benefit from easily accessible collection of opinionated modules/profiles/configurations with minimal set of options. Something like gnome-desktop / sway-desktop / etc. Gnome actually does pretty good job here.
The point is: currently my NixOS and Home Manager configurations have over 2k LOC total. When you search for configurations on GitHub/Google you are likely to find complex ones. For example, quick search for "nixos gnome" (Google) gives me link to NixOS Wiki (which describes only Gnome part) and blog post (https://gvolpe.com/blog/gnome3-on-nixos/) which is useful but links to really huge configuration (https://github.com/gvolpe/nix-config) that is overwhelming to any beginner.
Great example of such approach is nixos-hardware (https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-hardware) which provides one-line configuration covering hardware quirks.

Down bad.
And on top of that, it has the largest and most up-to-date package repository https://repology.org/repositories/graphs (100% official, has no such issues as AUR) and a super neat modules system that simplifies configuring your system and makes it easier to share your rices or whatever. Here are a couple of examples: - https://github.com/gytis-ivaskevicius/nixfiles/blob/master/config/cli.nix - https://github.com/gytis-ivaskevicius/nixfiles/blob/master/config/base-desktop.nix - https://github.com/gytis-ivaskevicius/nixfiles/blob/master/config/sway.nix - https://search.nixos.org/options

flake-utils-plus v1.0.0
You may like this suites approach - https://github.com/gytis-ivaskevicius/nixfiles/blob/master/flake.nix#L46-L55 ofcourse the whole flake can be separated into multiple files and all, but that's how I did it since I find it more convenient to manage fewer files
