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.

BPMN dynamic workflow for Django
The other big approach is BPMN engines. After messing around with several Python-pure (non Django) options, I manage to get SpiffWorkflow working using bpmn_dmn. Now I can load .bpmn diagrams and .dmn tables made with Camunda Modeler and run them through the engine to get a final event based on some parameters.
Prefect
- Prefect: A workflow orchestration tool for data pipelines
- self hosted Alternative to easycron.com?

Example typescript project repos?
If I was answering this question but for python, I'd recommend something like prefect, boto3, or tortoise-orm -- not extremely complex and with a pretty comprehensible featureset.

I have developed a simple Task Orchestrator
However, if you are looking for something like this, but much more mature and something of a bloat to be frank, there's Prefect. Honestly, woflo borrows a lot from Prefect conceptually.

Dabbling with Dagster vs. Airflow
Disclaimer: I work for Prefect.
It looks like we added cron and other schedule types to the deployment CLI just under a month ago[1].
Over the last couple of releases, we've also made it easier to pull deployments from GitHub or bake your flow code into Docker images instead of needing S3-like storage.
As with any product, there's always more to do, so I appreciate you sharing your thoughts. More than anywhere else I've worked, community feedback is a huge driver of product enhancements and feature development. Feel free to join our Slack community[2] if you'd like to share more feedback or ask questions.
