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.

Serverless maps at 1/700 the cost of Google Maps API
You might want to peek at https://github.com/headwaymaps/headway . I have never used it myself, but it at least shows how to integrate the different pieces.
The individual software components often have alternative with a similar scope. So if you don't like a choice headwaymaps made, browse around.
The data sources are mostly "unique", i.e. everybody downloads from the pages (Geofabrik, Who's On First, etc), so not much to gain here.
Editing styles has some alternatives, but the OpenSource editors are far away from the quality of the Mapbox editor. Maputnik or editing the 1000+ SLOC JSON by hand are the way to go, imo.
Personally I use GeoFabrik to download OSM extracts → osmconvert to extract the smaller bounding box I am interested in → tilemaker to render vector tiles to individual .pbf files I can serve like it's 1999. The bounding box extract is not necessary, but it's much faster if you need to tweak things in tilemaker. Both tilemaker and osmconvert are packaged for at least Debian out of the box, so setup is easy enough. Rendering a decently sized metro area takes < 30mins with this from scratch of compute, < 5min with the bounding box extract.
Note that adding icons (sprites) or fonts is extra work that comes on top. And while the tools themselves are great, there's still a lot of gluing/plumbing/fitting things together that you'll need to do. If headwaymaps works for you, it's probably the easiest choice.

Self Hosting a Google Maps Alternative with OpenStreetMap
In a similar vain, there is maps.earth / headway:

Another self hostable OSM stack that seems promising is headway

What is the easiest way to deploy OSM on the premise? like nominatim.openstreetmap.org, but offline version.
Something like this? https://github.com/headwaymaps/headway

There's a new map style on OpenStreetMap.org
Have been using https://opentopomap.org for this for a while, and depending on what you're looking for it still has some advantages: does show the numbers on all height lines (osm only does the 50m one in my area for some reason, leaving you to guess whether the next one is 40m or 60m since that is not always obvious - seems like a key thing for a topographic map), does show the house numbers.

Are there any good digital atlases?
For example OpenTopoMap looks very similar to most maps that were in my school atlas. I like the MapTiler renderings too.

I need some help creating a map with some layers
https://brouter.damsy.net/ The topo map is provided by https://opentopomap.org/ Alternatively, if you have an OSM account, you can go into edit mode on OSM website and drag GPX traces into the window to display them. You can't get elevation profile this way but you can use topographic map background or a better range of satellite imagery, and you can use Bing imagery without an API key.

Eduard: Swiss-Style Relief Shading for Maps Using Machine Learning
The chances of the problem not having being already tackled with deterministic algorithms is the thinnest - and in fact, yes, there do exist tools, as expected.
See the sections about 'hillshade' at the OpenTopoMap "from scratch" instructions, at https://github.com/der-stefan/OpenTopoMap/blob/master/mapnik...

How to generate MBTiles covering a shape and not a rectangular extent?
I have generated and hosted locally an instance of OpenTopoMap covering South America. Now I want to create a set of MBTiles for each individual country. Using the Raster tools -> Generate XYZ tiles (MBTiles) I can do that for a rectangular extent (drawn on map or calculated from layer). Can I do it for an irregular shape? I downloaded a .shp file for Argentina, for example - https://i.imgur.com/3IGJ88A.png
