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.

9 ways to improve how you ship software
Example with Nixpacks:
-
Multi-Worker Application on ARM Architecture
We have an upcoming nixpacks builder that should work on ARM/ARM64, but there are issues in the nixpacks codebase I'm still trying to sort out before that lands.

Using Nix with Dockerfiles
I think this is something the writer of the article would be delighted to find: https://github.com/railwayapp/nixpacks
-
[Media] Gitrun: Run any Git repository with one command
Yes, it builds the Dockerfile if it exists otherwise it uses nixpacks to create an image from source files for any language/framework. This image is then run using docker run .
- Show HN: IHP v1.0 (Batteries-included web framework built on Haskell and Nix)

We want to make Nix better
I think this is true for Nix in the deployment/ops space, where debugging a broken build can be very frustrating. Language improvements are going to be less useful for app developers, the Flake learning curve is not going to get better with a type system.
Perhaps something like heroku buildpaks (https://github.com/railwayapp/nixpacks ?) would help devs get on the Nix train.

A selfhosted Heroku clone on your Kubernetes cluster
Hey! Any plans on integrating nixpacks? I'm one of the core maintainers & would love to help you out. No worries if not.
- Nixpacks takes a source directory and produces an OCI compliant image

Standalone Next.js. When serverless is not an option
With a serverful approach, you can avoid these drawbacks, and the main challenge lies in selecting the platform that aligns with your requirements. Options may include AWS, Render, DigitalOcean, and others. While VPS is also an option, it's generally not recommended due to the significant setup and maintenance overhead involved (logging, monitoring, CI/CD pipelines, etc.). However, you can make your life easier by leveraging tools like Coolify that help managing your VPS.

Heroku and similar providers can simplify the server management issues, but you can use something much better that can combine both cost efficiency and ease of deployment—Coolify:

Serverless Horrors
> VPSs being “easy to manage” is a strong option full of assumptions.
There are definitely many footguns with managing a VPS but I think the threshold to get vaguely competent with a VPS is not really that far off with getting familiar with the average cloud platform - which comes with its own dangers, like the near-total inability to put an upward cap on fees that that person found out with Netlify recently.
Having a $5 VPS and knowing it's never going to cost your more than $5 might balance out a lot of things on the other side for a lot of people.
(And, as a bonus, it comes with the benefit of having a better idea of what is going on on the actual computer which is running your code.)
Platforms like https://coolify.io/ (which I have not tried, but looks interesting) seem to give you some of the abstractions that you get in cloud platforms to save you having to mess with too much low level stuff and become an expert in a billion separate systems.
If you have Debian with automatic updates that does most of the heavy lifting for you. The hardest problem I have is resisting the temptation to just install everything, because the cost to do it is capped at my VPS monthly fee.
So yep, it comes with a lot of assumptions. But so does everything!

Netlify just sent me a $104K bill for a simple static site
https://coolify.io/ might be worth a look

The 2024 Web Hosting Report
The modern iteration of these tools has taken the developer experience learnings from the Platform as a Service (PaaS) category, and will bring them to your own VM, giving you your own personal PaaS. Example of this include Dokku, Coolify, Caprover, Cloud66 and many more!
- Coolify – Self-Hostable PaaS
- Open-source and self-hostable Heroku/Netlify alternative
What are some alternatives?
sidekiq - Sidekiq worker on Render
CapRover - Scalable PaaS (automated Docker+nginx) - aka Heroku on Steroids
web3.storage - DEPRECATED ⁂ The simple file storage service for IPFS & Filecoin
Dokku - A docker-powered PaaS that helps you build and manage the lifecycle of applications
cog - Containers for machine learning
porter - Kubernetes powered PaaS that runs in your own cloud.
heroku-deploy - A simple github action that dynamically deploys an app to heroku
meli - Platform for deploying static sites and frontend applications easily. Automatic SSL, deploy previews, reverse proxy, and more.
piku - The tiniest PaaS you've ever seen. Piku allows you to do git push deployments to your own servers.
Empire - Empire is a PowerShell and Python post-exploitation agent.
