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.

Why the fuck are we templating YAML? (2019)
Is the list on their website not good? https://github.com/json5/json5/wiki/In-the-Wild
And it shouldn't take much to modify an existing JSON parser.

I pre-released my project "json-responder" written in Rust

topoconfig: enhancing config declarations with graphs
Meanwhile, formats have been evolving (JSON5, YAML), config entry points are constantly changing. These fluctuations, fortunately, were covered by tools like the cosmiconfig.

That's a Lot of YAML
I think JSON5 is fairly close to this: https://json5.org
I reckon the only thing it's missing to be truly accessible to non-techies is that string values still need to be quoted, i.e. you can't have:
key: this is my value
(I'm definitely not saying it would be a good idea to allow quotes to be dropped, just that that's the only potential stumbling block I see for non-techies.)

XML is better than YAML
I believe that's JSON5.
https://github.com/json5/json5
It's my preferred configuration file format, it fixes all the problems I have with JSON (trailing commas, comments) without turning it into a mess full of gotchas like YAML.
Might be interesting to check out json5.

What Is Wrong with TOML?
I can relate. But after using JSON for a while (in files that I edit by hand), I realised that I really wanted comments and trailing commas (which leads to https://nigeltao.github.io/blog/2021/json-with-commas-commen...). Next I'd probably want multiline strings (leading to https://github.com/json5/json5).
But if you use those extensions, all your tooling breaks.
I think the real bike-shedding would start when you want to add some syntax for raw string literals (e.g. heredocs); it's one of those features that feels redundant, until the day when you really need it and can't bear the pain of escaping.

Fixed: https://github.com/breck7/pldb/commit/bd36b4a5b28f645e6e314e2bc4f45b21216d0801
We had this but the title was set to "xtclang". Just fixed (https://github.com/breck7/pldb/commit/1673baa00e5d44e7fd8ac9564480d6301063aa25). Thank you!

Struct-ure/kg: a knowledge graph of tech skills and IT stuff; managed with Git
Interesting! I built a new system from the ground up for this sort of thing called TreeBase. It powers PLDB.com (https://github.com/breck7/pldb).
I don't have much experience using GraphQL. Is it a fun language to use? I wonder if we should provide a GraphQL API to PLDB.

Macros in 22 languages
A number of people seem to report that. I added your report to: https://github.com/breck7/pldb/issues/47
Could you provide an example here or (https://build.pldb.com/edit/sas) or via PR (https://github.com/breck7/pldb/blob/main/database/things/sas.pldb)?
Do you have a better example for Nim that you could post here or send a PR (https://github.com/breck7/pldb/blob/main/database/things/nim.pldb) or add with our web ui (https://build.pldb.com/edit/nim)? I have to say, when I was adding that one, I made a note to myself: play with Nim more. Very interesting language!
I have a book on Prolog and I need to refresh. I did some Googling trying to put an example in our Prolog file (https://build.pldb.com/edit/prolog) but I don't feel fluent enough with the language to add something that makes sense. Any chance you could post a snippet here, or send a PR? (https://github.com/breck7/pldb/blob/main/database/things/prolog.pldb)
