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.

Elk: A low footprint JavaScript engine for embedded systems
This implementation is nuts. A decent chunk (but still very small subset) of ES5 in under 1400 lines of very readable C code. It includes a mark-and-sweep GC and an FFI.
It doesn't have an AST or a bytecode VM. It just interprets directly off of source code.
Take a look: https://github.com/cesanta/elk/blob/master/elk.c.
This implementation really sets a new bar for me in terms of compact-but-readable language implementations.
Separately, this isn't even Cesanta's only embedded JavaScript implementation. They also have: https://github.com/cesanta/mjs. This implementation is a bit more complete and is much bigger.

What is your programming stack, as well encryption with ESP32?
In the past I've programmed with ESP8266 with Mongoose OS using mJS - https://github.com/cesanta/mjs but it has on 1.5K GitHub stars and I assume there are other alternative as well for Python language

Show HN: Invertornot.com – API to enhance your images in dark-mode
Semi-related - I saw this trick on https://v8.dev a while back, but `filter: hue-rotate(180deg) invert();` can be a neat CSS trick to 'dark mode' some kinds of graphics. The `hue-rotate` help a bit to keep 'blues blue' etc.
It's far from perfect, but it's a neat trick to be aware of.

Top 8 Recent V8 Updates
V8 is a high-performance JavaScript engine developed by Google. Its purpose is to convert JavaScript code into machine code for execution by the underlying hardware. Primarily developed by the V8 team at Google, the engine focuses on speed and efficiency. In particular, it relies on just-in-time compilation and uses inline caching for high performance.

C++ Specification vs Implementation
Exactly the same as JavaScript engines. Be it Mozilla's SpiderMoneky, Google's V8, Apple's Webkit, or Microsoft's Chakra. No matter how specific we draft a specification there is always room for interpretation. Every team has a different take on what part of a spec is describing. Oftentimes it's just a matter of varying pros and cons of different approaches on the road to matching spec; various teams just kind of have to pick a direction and run with it. Other times a spec is not only too vague, but clearly short-sighted to boot.

Abstract Syntax Trees and Practical Applications in JavaScript
Remember that we earlier established that every source gets parsed into an AST at some point before it gets compiled or interpreted. For example, platforms like Nodejs and chromium-based browsers use Gooogle's V8 engine behind the scenes to run JavaScript and of course, some AST parsing is always involved before the interpreter kicks in. I looked V8's source and I discovered it uses its own internal parser to achieve this.

The Ascent of Node.js: How a runtime changed the Web
While the idea of server-side JavaScript was not novel, what powered Node.js was! The V8 engine, birthed by Google for Chrome, was now driving Node.js, bringing unparalleled speed and performance to JavaScript execution.
