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.

Ask HN: Any tool for managing large and variable command lines?
I started using just [0] on my projects and have been very happy so far. It is very similar to make but focused on commands rather than build outputs.
Define your recipes and then you can compose them as needed.

GitHub switched to Docker Compose v2, action needed
Welp there is absolute chaos in that thread -- guess it's not an April Fools joke.
I wonder if relying on CI for anything other than provisioning machines is a mistake -- maybe we should have never moved from doing things from local scripts written in $LANGUAGE.
That said, I'm probably biased since I'm a massive fan of things like `make` and more appropriately for the current age, `just`[0]

Which command did you run 1731 days ago?
> When a command has some cognitive requirements I create a script with some ${1:-default} values and I store them all in $PATH enabled local/bin
I would consider using just for this:

Using Make – writing less Makefile
Your coworker's experience is more principled: Make is a mediocre tool for executing commands. It wasn't ever designed for that. Although it is pretty common to see what you are mentioning in projects because it doesn't require installing a dependency.
For a repo where an easy to install (single binary) dependency is a non-issue, consider using just. [1] You get `just -l` where you can see all the command available, the ability to use different languages, and overall simpler command writing.

Show HN: Just.sh – compiler that turns Justfiles into portable shell scripts
This is fantastic, but I'd say that this solution is somewhat in response to this open issue from 2019:
https://github.com/casey/just/issues/429
I really wish just was included as a package in distributions.

Sharing Saturday #496
So far, I didn't work on new features at all but on stabilizing the ground for further development: 1. CMake lists and modules were rewritten a lot, now managing builds and their configurations is much lesser pain. 2. Brought in Justfile for regular tasks, and it's great, no less. 3. Linters, formatters, analyzers for almost all the code (except for Janet for now, as because of it being a niche and young technology, it didn't get enough attention yet). 4. ECS stub. Now runtime class doesn't look like a god object. 5. Started writing unit tests which didn't happen with my personal projects before and maybe indicates how serious am I about this one :D 6. Some of previously hardcoded data has been moved to INI files. Now, if I release the game in 10 years, and in 10 more years some eccentric person decides to make a variant of it, it will be slightly simpler.
