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.

Understanding TTFB Latency in DJango - Seems absurdly slow after DB optimizations even locally
GraphQL could be efficiently translated into SQL and things certainly try, but the only thing close to a "bulletproof" implementation I found was Join Monster (https://github.com/join-monster/join-monster) in NodeJS-land and even that I think is now mostly abandoned. GraphQL as a system was built assuming random-access to data stores is ~free because that's what Facebook has, but the rest of us don't :)

Ask HN: Nested Resources in REST/HTTP API URLs?
REST is not a strict specification and it's not a single implementation, you can just start doing it.
That said, I wouldn't recommend going the allow everything flexible resolver way like GraphQL: it's terrible for performance (eg. most APIs use N+1 queries unless you have something like https://github.com/join-monster/join-monster), the complexity of the codebase skyrockets and having to specify all the fields you want is not exactly ergonomic in most situations.

Supabase – General Availability Week
hey hn, supabase ceo her
we just announced GA, after ~4 years of beta. for those who don't know: supabase is a postgres hosting company. we also host other open source "backend" tools that make it easy to get started with postgres (tools like PostgREST for auto-generate APIs [0])
we owe a lot to the HN community. you launched us 4 years ago [1], when we were just a few developers. since then HN has been a staple in our journey, one of the best sources of product feedback [2]
the GA badge is mostly to signify organizational readiness. we're at a stage where we can take any profile of customer. we have a support team that works 24/7, and a success team that will help customers improve their postgres usage. we released our Index Advisor [3] yesterday, and we'll be releasing a few more products this week that helps customer with performance and security.
on a personal note: i read HN most days, and love going through the ShowHN's to see what devs are building. thanks for being an awesome community and my favorite place to lurk on the internet. i'll stick around to answer any questions

The Many Ways Not to Build an API
If you use PostgreSQL and are proficient with using its row-level security feature, you can choose from several tools/services built above RLS, including Supabase, PostgREST, and PostGraphile. They all provide a way to expose database CRUD as a web API, assuming you've configured the RLS rules to properly secure the access.

Build a simple project management app with Neon, PostgREST, and DigitalOcean

Single Software Developer Projects
SupaBase is entirely based upon PostgREST. In fact, PostgREST is arguably 49% of their value proposition according to their own website. The other 49% is PostgreSQL. PostgreSQL of course is a super mature database, and some would argue the best RDBMS on the planet, so let's ignore that part for a moment, and consider it a mature thing and move on to PostgREST.

Oink: An API for PHP in a single file
You don't need this PHP snippet:

Use PostgREST and HTMX to Build RESTful APIs from PostgreSQL Databases
PostgREST is a standalone web server that turns your PostgreSQL database into a RESTful API using the database's structural constraints and permissions to define the API's endpoints and operations. In this tutorial, you will create a simple note-taking app by leveraging PostgREST to construct a RESTful API for the app and using htmx to deliver HTML content.

We built our customer data warehouse all on Postgres
You might find some info in the docs of PostgREST [1] or in the previous discussions on HN about it [2].
For the versioning, I just have a git repo where I keep every role, schema, table, view, function, trigger, etc. definitions. Every time I change something in the database I first change it in the git repo too to have an history.
