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.

Lua: The Little Language That Could
I used luajit to write an alternative to bat because it was annoyingly slow for large files. It ended up being like 15 times faster. Such a cool language!

Scintilla is a free source code editing component with a permissive license
There’s a related project that’s really cool called scintillua that lets you use lpeg lexers for scintilla. It supports over 120 languages and it’s super easy to add new ones.
https://github.com/orbitalquark/scintillua
You can also use it as a standalone lua library. I packaged it up to make a faster (but much less feature full) alternative to bat.

Ask HN: What have you created that deserves a second chance on HN?
a fast alternative to bat for syntax highlighting in the command line (eg for fzf preview window)

Building the fastest Lua interpreter automatically
It's super fast and has some really interesting libraries. I used parsing expression grammars to write a faster alternative to bat.

What are the downsides of using Lua?
I recently made a project that uses a lua library to lex source files, then writes them out to stdout with syntax highlighting. Long story short at this point in my code I have a big indexed table of token names and positions. I just iterate over the token names and io.write an ANSI escape sequence that corresponds to the color type of token (simple table lookup), and then io.write the tokenized text.

A Tutorial on Portable Makefiles
I recently learned more Makefiles by using them for a recent project of mine. I wish I had seen this when I was working on it! I learned (stole) from the musl libc configure script and makefile instead.
Makefiles aren't as easy to work with as alternatives in other language ecosystems, but I found they let me do a lot without the need for extra dependencies.
Coincidentally the author of this blog post commented on one of my reddit posts and helped me work out a few kinks in the project.

Seeking feedback on command line syntax highlighter
Hello! I'm working on a small project that just highlights source files and writes them to stdout: https://github.com/jpe90/clp

Treemaps Are Awesome!
Nice post - treemaps are great!
My friend and I made a codebase visualisation tool (https://www.codeatlas.dev/gallery) that's based on Voronoi treemaps, maybe of interest as an illustration of the aesthetics with a non-rectangular layout!
We've opted for zooming through double-clicks as the main method of navigating the map, because in deep codebases, the individual cells quickly get too small to accurately target with the cursor as shown in the key-path label approach!
If anyone's interested, this is also available as a Github Action to generate the treemap during CI: https://github.com/codeatlasHQ/codebase-visualizer-action

Gource – Animate your Git history
If you find this type of codebase visualisation useful, you might want to checkout codeatlas.dev and its Github Action (https://github.com/codeatlasHQ/codebase-visualizer-action). It doesn't animate the repo over time like gource (yet), but instead aims to give a beautiful interactive visual snapshot of a repo at a particular point in time. It also lets you zoom in on specific aspects like recent commit activity, programming language and hopefully in the future test coverage.
E.g. see here for a visualisation of the pytorch codebase we did a while ago: https://codeatlas.dev/gallery/pytorch/pytorch

Show HN: Git Heat Map – a tool for visualising Git repo activity for each file
If you think this is useful, you might also like codeatlas.dev and its Github Action (https://github.com/codeatlasHQ/codebase-visualizer-action). It currently does not support per-contributor activity, but we put a lot of effort into making the diagrams beautiful to look at and the basic approach of using treemaps for visualisation seems very similar. In fact, could be cool to collaborate on this, DM me if interested!

Ask HN: Those making $0/month or less on side projects – Show and tell
https://codeatlas.dev - codebase visualisation tool
Takes your git repo and generates a beautiful visual representation of the code. Sort of an alternative navigation tool (in addition to IDEs) for large codebases. Can also run it as part of CI with our Github Action (https://github.com/codeatlasHQ/codebase-visualizer-action).
We made this because grokking complex software projects is really difficult and we've found that a visual overview of what's in a codebase can be quite helpful to get started.
E.g. checkout https://codeatlas.dev/gallery/kubernetes/kubernetes for the generated visualisation of the Kubernetes Github repo!
Currently making -10$/year to pay for the domain :D We slowed down active development after our initial attempts at dissemination didn't really go anywhere (bragging about side projects on the internet, ugh), but I'm still really keen on getting some feedback on whether this is actually useful to anyone else!
Note: The site works somewhat on mobile, but is much better on desktop!
Also, funny there's a post like this again, just like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34531989 yesterday.

Ask HN: Why aren't code diagram generating tools more common?
I've already mentioned this on the other thread (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31569646), but my friend and I have been working on [https://www.codeatlas.dev](https://www.codeatlas.dev/) as a sideproject - it's a tool for creating pretty (2D!) visualisations of codebases, while providing additional insights via overlays (e.g. commit density, programming language or other results from static analysis like dead code/test coverage/etc.). For example here's the Kubernetes codebase visualised using codeatlas: [https://www.codeatlas.dev/repo/kubernetes/kubernetes](https:....
At the moment, codeatlas is just the static gallery, but we're only a few weekends away from releasing a Github action that deploys this diagram on github pages for your own repos - if you're interested, feel free to watch this repo: https://github.com/codeatlasHQ/codebase-visualizer-action
OP, how close is this to what you had in mind in your question?

Ask HN: Visualizing software designs, especially of large systems (if at all)?
My friend and I have been working on https://www.codeatlas.dev in our spare time, which is a tool that creates pretty (2D!) visualisations of codebases, while providing additional insights via overlays (e.g. commit density, programming language). For example here's the Kubernetes codebase visualised using codeatlas: https://www.codeatlas.dev/repo/kubernetes/kubernetes.
At the moment, codeatlas is only a static gallery, but we're currently about 1-2 weekends away from releasing a Github action that deploys this diagram on github pages for your own repos - if you're interested, feel free to watch this repo: https://github.com/codeatlasHQ/codebase-visualizer-action
