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: Million Lint – ESLint for Performance
Hey HN! Founder of Million – We’re building a tool to that helps fix slow React code. Here is a quick demo: https://youtu.be/k-5jWgpRqlQ
Fixing web performance issues is hard. Every developer knows this experience: we insert console.log everywhere, catch some promising leads, but nothing happens before "time runs out." Eventually, the slow/buggy code never gets fixed, problems pile up on a backlog, and our end users are hurt.
We started Million to fix this. A VSCode extension that identifies slow code and suggests fixes (like ESLint, for performance!) The website is here: https://million.dev/blog/lint
I realized this was a problem when I tried to write an optimizing compiler for React in high school (src: https://github.com/aidenybai/million). It garnered a lot of interest (14K+ stars) and usage, but it didn't solve all user problems.
Traditionally, devtools either hinge on full static analysis OR runtime profiling. We found success in a mixture of the two with dynamic analysis. During compilation, we inject instrumentation where it's necessary. Here is an example:
function App({ start }) {

Million 3.0: All You Need To Know
To be honest, it fills me with great joy to finally be able to witness the launch of the 3.0.0 major release of Million.js; this is something that has been talked about since maybe July 2023, but, Aiden Bai finally assembled a team to get it out there and just last week on the day 2 February as at 8:00 am PST (Pacific Standard Time) Million v3 was released!!

Show HN: I made a tool that makes React faster automatically
In brief: I'm Aiden, 18, and have spent the past 2 years of high school working on Million.js, an open source React alternative with 11K stars on GitHub and hundreds of thousands of npm downloads.
Recently, I released automatic mode, which detects slow React components and automatically optimizes the reconciliation phase. It's still in beta but chugging along. It's around 70% faster than React on the JS Framework Benchmark and you can see how I did it here: https://million.dev/blog/virtual-dom

What are your thoughts on Preact Signals? I've thoroughly enjoyed it but am now thinking of dropping it because it results in a fat stack of issues in the Next 13 server logs and because Dan Abramov himself advised against it. Nothing's broken, but it doesn't feel like it makes sense to use anymore
Either that or add signals to the library itself. I don't get why it isn't in there when a ton of React's competitors are either using signal-like behavior or forgoing the clearly-obsolete way React handles its VDOM. When a high schooler can create something to make the library faster, you know that the core team is either prioritizing the wrong things or someone managing React is too prideful to admit that a lot of what worked a decade ago doesn't work today.

The Power of Template Design Pattern in JavaScript
I like to use snabbdom to demonstrate concepts in several of my posts because it is short, simple, powerful and uses several techniques that are relative to the topics I wrote about in the past. Snabbdom is a front end JavaScript library that lets you work with a virtual DOM to create robust web applications. They focus on simplicity, modularity and performance.

A good repository to learn from this concept is snabbdom, a virtual DOM library that focuses on simplicity, modularity, and powerful features to improve performance when working with the DOM.

Exploring Blockdom: Fastest Virtual DOM (ever!)
Compared with other virtual DOMs (see snabbdom, virtual-dom), it's significantly faster. These older methods use node-by-node diffing, or the traversal and comparison of the node tree in order to calculate the optimal DOM modifications to reduce reflow and repaints.

Announcing commithelper, a tool to create and lint your commit messages
I was disappointed by commitlint and commitizen, so I wrote this tool. IMO having such a tool makes you think more about your commit messages and thus makes you write better ones. See these for example: https://github.com/snabbdom/snabbdom/pull/948/commits
