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.

Using Firecracker and Go to run short-lived, untrusted code execution jobs
Here are some more ports of LLVM and clang to the browser:
* https://github.com/kripken/llvm-js
* https://github.com/tbfleming/cib
* https://github.com/jprendes/emception
LLVM just does pure computation, really, so it's not hard to port to wasm - much simple than say Python (which has also been ported several times). The only challenges with LLVM are the build system (which has self-execution), working around some issues like clang wanting to open a subprocess, and adding some ifdefs.

Show HN: ToyWithRaylib, compile and run raylib games on the browser
Some months ago, I created https://toywithraylib.com/, a little project that uses emception (https://github.com/jprendes/emception)
It allows you to build and run raylib projects entiretly on the browser (It is compiled and run entirely locally!)
It has raylib 5.6, rlImGui and box2d included! It can be used to run any C++ project, allowing configuring the build options using python (which also runs entirely in the website)
Once you are finished testing, you can download the code or download the game in order to share, which will be stored in a single-file HTML file, it also has basic link-sharing capabilities but I don't expect them to work with large examples since it is url-based.
The project is opensourced, I just wanted to hack it to get it working, but if somebody wants to improve it or fork it, is more than welcomed to do so :)

Is that possible to use a Nim compiler in the browser?
I have just stumbled upon this project which does exactly that - compiles C/C++ to WASM right in the browser. The included demo wouldn't load on my machine for some reason though. But it is the exact scenario I have thought of, running your whole 'IDE' in the browser, while serving the page's files simply with a GitHub page.

Rust programming concepts for JavaScript developers
It takes some work (mostly due to LLVM building code to run later in its build system as it goes), but it's very feasible. LLVM has been ported to Wasm (and before that to JS) many times, for example:
https://github.com/jprendes/emception (2021)
https://github.com/tbfleming/cib (2017)
https://github.com/kripken/llvm.js (2012)
I agree it would be great to see this repl running 100% in the browser!
- The Emscripten compiler itself has been compiled to WebAssembly
What are some alternatives?
cib - clang running in browser (wasm)
Theta - θ A statically typed, functional programming language that compiles to WebAssembly
skybison - A fork of Instagram's experimental performance oriented greenfield implementation of Python. It features small objects; a moving GC; hidden classes; bytecode inline caching; type-specialized bytecode; an experimental template JIT.
x86-64-playground - An online assembly editor and debugger for the x86-64 architecture
windmill - Open-source developer platform to power your entire infra and turn scripts into webhooks, workflows and UIs. Fastest workflow engine (13x vs Airflow). Open-source alternative to Retool and Temporal.
