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.

“Make” as a Static Site Generator
Most of the Static Site Generators default to generating blog from markdown, which is not feasible for company websites etc. For such projects I like Middleman (https://middlemanapp.com) which provides layouts/partials and things like haml templates.

Bloggers who host statically, do you use Jekyll or Pelican to roll your blog posts?
I've done similar with Middleman, and I'm 99% sure you could set this up with Pelican if you wanted. It sounds like the site generation workflow is the issue rather than the tool.

Show HN: Self-hosted CMS on Cloudflare for podcast/blog/images/videos/docs/URLs
I use middleman[^1] + bulmaCSS + FontAwesome but host on github using the `github.io` domain and upload podcasts to "archive.org"[^2]. The reason I choose this setup is because I want the content to survive as much as possible, hence open source technology and "free & long lived" hosting were requirements.

Building Static Websites w/ Rails in 2022
I came across Middleman but it's meant to work with Ruby not necessarily Rails, it's also a bit old although appears kept up to date.

CMS > MiddlemanApp > static Site - how to start middleman on heroku?
A simple middleman app consumes the data and builds a static export that runs standalone (just HTML, CSS and some JS files). That gets FTP'd/released to the webserver.

What is your development setup (IDE, gems, library, ci/cd etc) for RoR/non-RoR applications development ?
For my personal site, which is 10 years old, I use Middleman, and I deploy the site to S3/Cloudfront with s3_website. It works fine for now. If s3_website stops working, I'll move to Netlify probably.

Ask HN: What's the simplest static website generator?
Pandoc can be your friend. My site maker [1] is built around it.
I think a hundred or so well-chosen lines of your favourite scripting language can do wonders. Mine is ~300 lines of Bash because I over-engineered a thing or two for kicks. The core of it is maybe 50 lines.

The README documents the architecture and rationale. Maybe it will help you figure out yours. Happy hacking!

500 Lines or Less – Writing a useful program in fewer than 500 line code – AOSA
Bookmarked! These look like amazing study projects; the kind one can copy and learn from. Quite like how they do it in art school. Each one of them looks like it solves a nontrivial problem, and edifies the reader on the basic contours/tenets of the problem/solution space.
I love this kind of stuff, because it shows one _can_ solve a pretty juicy problem with not that much code, honestly. Also because it suggests that the industrial-strength equivalent has a lot more in for use cases, corner cases, and/or optimisations that are not relevant for one's requirements (at least not yet, maybe not ever).
I aspire to write code like that. Useful, concise, but not obtuse. Some of my code is not as significant as those examples, and maybe falls short of my ideals, but it gets a lot done in well under 500 loc. e.g. my website maker in Bash [1] (hot-builds and hot-refreshes without JS), or the JS that drives text art animations for Hanukkah of Data [2].
[1] https://github.com/adityaathalye/shite is about 350 LoC counted this way (excluding the script containing HTML templates).

“Make” as a Static Site Generator
I love the code [1]. Mine [2] is a bit over engineered because I wanted hot-reloading (without JS), and it was a delightful yak shave.
But the basic idea is the same --- heredocs for templating, using a plaintext -> html compiler (pandoc in my case), an intermediate CSV for index generation.
Very nice!

xdotool emulates user actions under the X Window System (e.g. typing, mouse around, click etc.).
I'm using it to send keypresses to the browser, as you rightly observe.
So if I want to just reload a page, the browser gets F5.
To GOTO some page, it gets a stream of keystrokes for the URL characters and then Enter.
It's really that simple-minded, and it works!
