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.

Show HN: Just.sh – compiler that turns Justfiles into portable shell scripts
makesure, a similar tool (https://maximullaris.com/makesure-vs-just.html) I'm developing, doesn't require installation in the traditional sense: https://github.com/xonixx/makesure#installation.
Also, I was considering adding the same feature (generating the equivalent shell script) to my tool, but after doing some analysis decided not to pursue this idea for the following reasons: https://github.com/xonixx/makesure/issues/83#issuecomment-98....

Just: A Command Runner
Another simple tool similar to this is makesure[1]. It’s written in shell so the idea is you include makesure itself in your repo, which avoids needing to install another tool to run commands on your project.
It’s very simple so isn’t good for everything, but works well as a simple command runner.

Frawk: A fast, JITted, statically-typed AWK written in Rust
- mawk (https://invisible-island.net/mawk/) - bundled in some Linux distros (?), known as the fastest byte-code compiled implementation.
All three have very good compatibility, but Gawk is super-set over POSIX standard. I have some evidence here, since I regularly test [1] against these implementations and even some others, like GoAWK.

How did I run that code again? Tools to help recall
I've been using make to do this for ages, but its syntax really shows its age in a bad way. A while ago I switched to just (https://github.com/casey/just), which is a simple command runner with less unnecessary cruft (for my use case as a command runner) and a much saner syntax, and I've been pretty happy with it so far, I hardly ever need to look up anything.
There's also task (https://taskfile.dev/), which is YAML-based and might work well in an environment where everything else is YAML anyway, and makesure (https://github.com/xonixx/makesure), which is pretty similar to just, but didn't really click with me.

How to write idempotent Bash scripts · Fatih Arslan
yes, there is also https://github.com/xonixx/makesure - It is a simple task/command runner inspired by make with declarative goals and dependencies.

How to write idempotent Bash scripts
Idempotence is achievable elegantly with makesure tool [1] using @reached_if directive [2]. Full disclosure - I’m the author of the tool.

Go Dependency management in large company projects - How do you do it?
Hyper-large tech companies managing hyper-large monorepos using Bazel (google), buck (Facebook), please (thought machine), pants (Twitter, Foursquare & Square) enjoy them but also have a lot of resources devoted to running and maintaining it.

Compiling a single-file app with csc.dll
We use Buck company wide. Our packaging / deployment system, for example, expects to be given a Buck target to build, not a pre-built binary - I can’t just build my app with dotnet and upload it. While it is possible for a Buck target to be a simple bash command (i.e dotnet publish), doing so makes the target “opaque” - Buck wouldn’t have any knowledge of my app’s build graph so I’d lose many of the benefits it gives us (incremental cached builds etc.)

Just: A Command Runner
Oh excellent, then better (and more portable!) tools are available:

and, if you hate yourself: https://bazel.build

Meta lays off 11,000 people
I’m feeling sorry for everyone affected.
Let’s hope that this isn’t going to impact Buck [0] too much. It’s one of the best things Facebook has ever made.

Using URLs for dependency management
Buck has a http_file() that you can use this way, and it has first-class support for Java.

Is it possible to be an android developer ONLY with the documentation?
That's a good bridge into saying that we don't use pretty much any standard tooling. Our build system is Buck, we use Mercurial instead of Git, and the IDE of choice seems to be Visual Studio (although Android Studio is supported, with some custom plugins required).

Best/Worst C++ IDE you have ever used?
Didn't know it was python based. Their github repo shows 90% of the code is java, only 2% is python. Regardless, C++ build systems should be written by people who are familiar with C++ and the specific problems they need to solve. That means the build system should be written in C++ or C and not in java, lua, or python. I certainly do not want to install python just to build my C++ programs in a CI environment, it just increases my build complexity and attack surface
- Are there any java build tools which have not been written in Java?, If not, what could be the reason?
