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.

I have done a full benchmark of a POST REST API on my computer: Node.js vs Fastify vs Express.js vs Deno vs Bun vs GO. Node.js is used WITH and WITHOUT clustering on 6-core I7 processor
Hey, I believe uWebsockets.js does support clustering. I'm the author of https://github.com/kartikk221/hyper-express which is written on top of uWebsockets.js and is pretty much the fastest webserver in Node land with an Express-like API and all of the common features such as middlewares, Router, async/sync, Websockets, Server Sent Events, File Uploading in a single package that is about same size as Express. The only catch is that you lose about 14% performance from the uWebsockets.js peak because of all the features but this is being improved and a well worth trade off for the familiar developer experience with still almost 2.5x performance of Fastify and other similar frameworks.

MRSK: Deploy Web Apps Anywhere
Yeah I’m personally of the opinion that the performance loss for regular web services is worth it 99% of the time. RAM is cheap, human time is not.
That said I definitely believe your characterization of resource hunger between nginx and traefik.
You are the second person to mention using websockets for requests in as many days… How do you deal with scale out? Sticky cookie routing seems like almost a requirement if you don’t want to deploy a redis-alike.
Also just out of curiosity, do you use hyper-express[0]?

What are some good projects for learning about buffers, event emitters, and streams in NodeJS?
Building your own webserver on top of a lower level networking library in Node.js can be a good way to learn all 3 of those things. I have built a webserver called HyperExpress which is essentially a layer on top of a low level C++ websever called uWebsockets and I had to utilize and progress my knowledge in buffers, emitters and streams to achieve the same API as Express.js and make it usable for Node.js applications: https://github.com/kartikk221/hyper-express Feel free to dig around in the code and make any PRs for improvements!

Need help in understanding why we need classes in JS(node specifically).
Are classes absolutely needed in JS? No, not really. Are classes really nice and significantly improve the readability/flow of your code in some cases? Sure, an example could be a webserver I wrote: https://github.com/kartikk221/hyper-express

Using NetBird for Kubernetes Access
Securing access to your Kubernetes clusters is crucial as inadequate security measures can lead to unauthorized access and potential data breaches. However, navigating the complexities of Kubernetes access security, especially when setting up strong authentication, authorization, and network policies, can be challenging.

My Favorite DevTools to Build AI/ML Applications!
Deploying AI models into production requires tools that can package applications and manage them at scale. Docker simplifies the deployment of AI applications by containerizing them, ensuring that the application runs smoothly in any environment. Kubernetes, an orchestration system for Docker containers, allows for the automated deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications, essential for AI applications that need to scale across multiple servers or cloud environments.

Building Llama as a Service (LaaS)
With the containerized Node.js/Express API, I could run multiple containers, scaling to handle more traffic. Using a tool called minikube, we can easily spin up a local Kubernetes cluster to horizontally scale Docker containers. It was possible to keep one shared instance of the database, and many APIs were routed with an internal Kubernetes load balancer.

The power of the CLI with Golang and Cobra CLI
This package is widely used for powerful CLI builds, it is used for example for Kubernetes CLI and GitHub CLI, in addition to offering some cool features such as automatic completion of shell, automatic recognition of flags (the tags) , and you can use -h or -help for example, among other facilities.

Kubernetes and back – Why I don't run distributed systems
"You are holding it wrong", huh?
From the homepage https://kubernetes.io/:
"Kubernetes, also known as K8s, is an open-source system for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications."
Do you see "not recommended for smaller-scale applications" anywhere? Including on the entire home page? Looking for "small", "big" and "large" also yields nothing.

Open Source Ascendant: The Transformation of Software Development in 2024
Open Source and Cloud Computing: A Match Made in Heaven The cloud is accelerating OSS adoption. Cloud-native technologies like Kubernetes [https://kubernetes.io/] and Istio [https://istio.io/], both open-source projects, are revolutionizing how applications are built and deployed across cloud platforms.

Get a specific apiVersion manifest from k8s
If you do kubectl explain deployment than (surprise!) you'll get a description for extensions/v1beta1. Because kubectl explain works the same way, just like kubectl get:

Open source at Fastly is getting opener
Through the Fast Forward program, we give free services and support to open source projects and the nonprofits that support them. We support many of the world’s top programming languages (like Python, Rust, Ruby, and the wonderful Scratch), foundational technologies (cURL, the Linux kernel, Kubernetes, OpenStreetMap), and projects that make the internet better and more fun for everyone (Inkscape, Mastodon, Electronic Frontier Foundation, Terms of Service; Didn’t Read).
