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.

Help with running exoplanet simulations
Hello!! I'm an 11th grade AP Research student and I need help running exoplanet simulations. All of the simulations lead me to GitHub repositories (which I don't know how to use) and the installation guides are confusing. I'm currently looking at VPLanet (link to GitHub repository | link to installation guide), as well as vplot, PandExo, and Exo-Transmit. If there are any other options for running models of simulations, please let me know! My research is studying hycean exoplanets and relating them to future exoplanet characterization space missions, and I want to simulate a planet's conditions as well as instrumentation.
- Are there any planets where each of the four seasons lasts a different amount of time (in Earth days)?
-
Can I get a hand with understanding the atmosphere composition of my planet please? I'm using Artifexian's videos as a guide, but there's some points that I'm unclear on.
Also, I can't believe I haven't come across VPLanet before. I will certainly be experimenting with that, especially the binary module to calculate the orbital evolution of a circumbinary planet.
What are some alternatives?
