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.

XL: An Extensible Programming Language
IMO, there’s a wide unexplored design space between the minimalism of Lisp and richness of other languages. A programming language inspired by something like KDL (https://github.com/kdl-org/kdl) has the potential to be in a very sweet spot between the two. "Everything is a node" instead of "everything is a list" is only slightly more complicated, but also vastly more readable that a soup of parenthesis.

SDLang – Simple Declarative Language
KDL is a variant of SDLang that’s worth checking out.

Parsing JSON is a Minefield 💣 (2018)
Either way I've got high hopes for KDL becoming the new gold standard for clean, flexible data formats that are editable by hand.

The KDL Document Language
I'd love to understand why all the advertised implementations have permissive licenses except for the Rust implementation, which is released under the Parity Public License 7.0.0 [1]? This seems to be as restrictive as the GPL, no?
In my mind, copyleft licenses applied to infrastructural projects like kdl-rs prematurely limits their adoption and promotes the development of alternatives with more permissive licensing, since the spec is released under a Creative Commons license [2].

The KDL Document Language, an alternative to YAML/JSON/XML
p.s. if anyone is interested in helping or just wants the info, this is the tracking issue for implementations supporting 1.0 (the actual thing that just got released): https://github.com/kdl-org/kdl/issues/144

ParserObjects Parser Combinator Library for .NET
Oh nice. It will be a nice library to use to parse KDL (https://github.com/kdl-org/kdl)

The YAML file of Prometheus Operator has over 13k lines, one of the longest YAML files on GitHub ever
It's still in its infancy but I'm keeping an eye on kdl

Parsing an Undocumented File Format
- ImHex [2], which has a pattern language [3] which allows parsing, and it seems more powerful than what Kaitai offers. I stumbled upon some limitations with it but it was still useful.

Hacking the LG Monitor's EDID
An EDID override like this would be helpful for macOS as well, where the monitors swapping around after standby is a real annoyance [0] [1]
EDID rewrites are 99% of the time blocked by the monitor firmware: https://notes.alinpanaitiu.com/Decoding-monitor-EDID-on-macO...
By the way, one helpful tool that helped me navigate the EDID dump was Kaitai Struct [2]. It shows a side by side view with the hex view and the EDID structure, and it highlights the hex values in real time as you navigate the structure. Unfortunately [3] it doesn't support the extension blocks that the author needs.
