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.

Best practices for Unit Testing Android Apps with Mockk, Kotest and others
As you can see, I create mockUsersRepository object using mock( function. Then, in setup() method, I set up this repository in such a way so that it would return a list of hardcoded values. After this, on top of everything else, I check if, for mockUsersRepository object, getUsers method was called with verify function, in the test method. It’s important to note that Mockito is a very old framework and was originally written for Java. When Kotlin appeared, it turned out that out of the box this framework can work with some limitations, which is why an extension, mockito-kotlin, was released. The example above was written with it. Another Mockito’s limitation was that it was impossible to mock final classes and static methods, and all classes are final by default in Kotlin. Currently, this is solved through mockito-inline but, before, it was a serious limitation. In respect to Java development, there was and is an alternative for Android developers, PowerMock.

Why don't you write unit tests and integration tests to ksp project
In the demo project, I used junit and mockito. One thing we need to pre-learn do the unit test, that is ksp class diagram.

Spring with java vs Spring with kotlin
What's wrong with Mockito for Kotlin?
-
From Java to Kotlin. There and back again
Mockito does not work correctly with Kotlin types out of the box. Spring recommends using Mockk. There is also a special module for Mockito, which adds support for Kotlin - Mockito-Kotlin.

Kotlin DSL is Now the Default for New Gradle Builds
Honestly, when you look at a build.gradle.kts written by someone who knows what they're doing, it's not that bad (that reminds me, I should really clean up the build.gradle.kts on my personal project, I haven't heavily edited it since I knew a lot less about gradle...). For example, here's the build.gradle.kts for Moshi, a JSON serialization library from Square. It uses the root build.gradle.kts for the project a bit, which is here. The root one is a little more complex, but that's mostly because it has to deal with a multi-release build and has to configure a few plugins, like dokka. (If you're wondering where all the library versions are, they're here, using a new feature in Gradle you might like: The version catalog)

Apple's Swift rewrite of its Foundation framework will be open source
Best practice in Android would be Moshi, which is written by many of the same authors as Gson but is still actively maintained. It's more or less a breaking upgrade from Gson.

Converting Json to Java object
Thanks for the info. Just checked the GitHub and it is indeed the case that Gson is not maintained anymore. The main dev left Google it seems and therefore abandoned Gson. He and some other people however created a new project called Moshi that's probably intended as a kind of Gson 3.0: https://github.com/square/moshi the last commit was three months ago and there are a crowd of contributors listed so I guess that's the better option than ye olde Gson.

Help parsing JSON with Retrofit & Moshi
However i am getting an error "Expected BEGIN-ARRAY but was BEGIN-OBJECT at $". Looking over the moshi documentation (https://github.com/square/moshi) I think I need to use an adapter as my JSON response starts with "{ }" not the expected "[ ]". I am just struggling to understand how to implement the adapter as I think the built in adapter should work.
