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: Who's an open source maintainer/project that needs sponsorship or help?
Nexus: https://github.com/jfilby/nexus
This is a web framework + ORM for Nim. It's in desperate need of more work to support DBs other than PostgreSQL and make the ORM more flexible. The web side also needs more work.
- Ask HN: Should I learn more languages?
-
Ask HN: Companies of one, what is your tech stack?
I use it mainly for high-performance backend engines. E.g. I'm writing an automated trading system and the trading engine is written in Nim.
I wrote a Nim web framework that has an ORM: https://github.com/jfilby/nexus. However I mainly use the ORM with the back-end engines. You could write a Django-style web app with Nexus + Nimja, but it's difficult to compete with the huge ecosystems of React and Flutter.

Ask HN: What is the job market like, for niche languages (Nim, crystal)?
It's not good for Nim, unfortunately. The language is great, but the community isn't that big.
If you're looking for a web framework with an ORM for Nim, check out Nexus: https://github.com/jfilby/nexus

Building a personal blog using Django
Django is a great MVC framework. It might be overkill for a blog as another poster wrote, but it's still a good way to learn Django.
If you ever want to learn Nim, please consider Nexus (https://github.com/jfilby/nexus) as I'm building it to be something like Django for Nim.

Show HN: Nexus Development Framework
Nexus is a Nim development framework.
https://github.com/jfilby/nexus
The aim to create a web framework similar to Django, with a built-in ORM. The view layer needs work, and is mostly built out of available libraries with Jester for routing and Nimja for templating.

Nexus Development Framework
Nexus Development Framework, for Nim, is now available: https://github.com/jfilby/nexus

Ask HN: What are some examples of elegant software?
Nim. It's just so quick and easy to write high performance code. That's why I'm writing a web framework for it, soon to be released: https://github.com/jfilby/nexus

Building a unikernel that runs WebAssembly – part 1
You should also probably check out Unikraft (https://unikraft.org) , supports many languages/apps, x86/ARM64 and QEMU/Firecracker. Is also able to run an ELF built under Linux as a unikernel (see https://unikraft.org/guides/bincompat). Discord is at https://unikraft.org/discord .

What Is a Unikernel?
>"For performance-oriented UDP-based apps, much of the OS networking stack is useless:
the app could simply use the driver API, much like DPDK-style applications already do.
There is currently no way to easily remove just the network stack but not the entire network sub-system from standard OSes."
This page is a great read for any current or future OS developer...

A future without containers? ( thoughts )
Wow, just now seeing this topic. I work for a cloud company hosted in AWS. We started out, Netflix/Spotify style microservices. We were all on ec2 images generate by packer (and later with AWS Image Factory). When Docker hit, we kicked the tires but never did anything with it beyond using it for running unit tests, and later, infrastructure tests. 5 years ago, during a hackathon, our little group began experimenting with Unikernels, or library operating systems. Interestingly enough, these Unikernels were all stripped down BSD kernels. OSv is FreeBSD based, and Rumprun is NetBSD based. Services running in EC2 on Unikernels would spin up and start sending and receiving traffic before the AWS EC2 healthchecks completed. They are blazing fast! Only problem in 2017, was the tooling. It would have taken too much effort to use Unikernals with our infrastructure. As soon as they start making Unikernels that can run Java bytecode like native code, the fate of containerization will be sealed, IMO. We could get basic JVM webservers running on OSv, but not Cassandra, not Kafka, not yet. OSv now runs on Firecracker, but I have not tried it out, yet. Some links if you are interested: OSv: https://osv.io Rumprun: https://github.com/rumpkernel/rumprun We used this tooling during the Hackathon, but doesn't look like it has been touched in 3 years: https://github.com/solo-io/unik Unikraft Unikernel Dev kit: https://unikraft.org/ And don't forget Firecracker running in Kubernetes https://www.weave.works/oss/firekube/ And of course, being a FreeBSD subreddit, let's not forget FreeBSD on Firecracker https://www.daemonology.net/blog/2022-10-18-FreeBSD-Firecracker.html
