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.

- Hired: A Modern Take on 'Ed'
-
The ! command, what do you use it for?
( The ed clone I am writing: https://github.com/sidju/hired , and its backend: https://github.com/sidju/add-ed )
- Thoughts on some of the actively developed text editors written in Rust?
-
Nano vs Vim (text editor)
OR, use modern ED! https://github.com/sidju/hired Syntax highlighting, command history and replaceable backend.
-
Interface test for all structs that implement a trait
My current solution is to have it written implementation agnostic for the only implementation that currently exists. ( Seen here: https://github.com/sidju/hired/blob/bde09775eca11c3f98f88f29eb006f4dc6e057fd/src/buffer/vecbuffer.rs#L249 ) In the longer term I intend on writing a macro that essentially creates that exact test but replaces the constructor ("VecBuffer::new()") with whatever string is given to the macro. That should work well, but will have to wait a little.

Given how powerful Emacs is and how important it has been for my computing over the past four decades, I think it would be more useful to me for people to label all non-emacs articles [Not Emacs]
you might want to check remacs, a rewrite of emacs in Rust.
-
What would you rewrite in Rust?
Emacs. There's Remacs… well, there was Remacs. It seems the project has fizzled out.

I made an OpenGL-like renderer to learn Rust. Had an amazing developing experience!
Well...

- Stallman when someone installs NVIDIA drivers on their desktop
-
How do the neovim plugins for OrgMode and Magit compare with the real thing?
Yeah most likely they won't mature at all. Many of the emacs-ng folks were doing an incremental Rust rewrite called Remacs before abandoning that. It's great to see these people having fun, but I wouldn't bet on them to be around in the long term.

Emacs as a universal front-end interface
There are alternative Emacs-like editors implemented in better languages like Common Lisp like Climacs which seem to be no longer maintained, there have been attempts at rewriting Emacs in Guile Scheme like Guile Emacs which have fizzled out, there are more recent attempts at implementing Emacs in Rust which isn't even a Lisp. I am really hoping Guile Emacs or Climacs see a resurrection, that or some other Lisp-based Emacs clone comes along that manages to supplant GNU Emacs. If more people would put efforts into projects like these, Emacs as a platform would be so much better than something like Electron.
