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.

Include diagrams in your Markdown files with Mermaid
I like this approach of using the tag associated with a code block to determine how to render the output. It's the same approach I take in my markdown-derived markup language: https://github.com/smasher164/mexdown.
The top example there takes a GraphViz description and passes it into the dot command, placing the resultant SVG into the HTML output.

Show HN: JWEB (a modern implementation of the CWEB Literate Programming system)
This is similar to the approach I take in my markup language: https://github.com/smasher164/mexdown. Pipe the body of a code block to the command's stdin, and replace the code block with its output.

Include diagrams in your Markdown files with Mermaid
> I think so-called ASCII-art is more in the spirit of Markdown.
If you're simply doing a less on a file, then sure. But if you want to do a 'render' on the Markdown and convert it to another format (HTML, PDF) then having a mechanism that can translate ASCII to something graphical could be useful.
In some ways this is what the DOT language does in Graphviz:

> The spirit behind the kind of thing in the OP, on the other hand, is that one should get nicely formatted HTML from Markdown for the purpose of online consumption. Which is a very different goal.
I'm not sure if there's a way to have both ASCII art and it be renderable to graphics. Closest that I could find:
