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.

Electrons Are Fast, So Can Be Electron – How to Optimize Electron App Performance
If we want it fast, Node-API looks like a perfect solution. A library written in C/C++ must be fast. If you prefer to use C++ over C, the node-addon-api can help. This is probably one of the best solutions available, especially since it is officially supported by the Node.js team. It’s super stable once it is built, but it can be painful during development. Errors are often far from easy to understand, so if you are no expert in C, it might kick your ass very easily.

node-addon-api v7.0.0 released
The Node-API Team proudly announces the release of version 7.0.0 of node-addon-api, the C++ wrapper of the ABI-stable C-based Node-API (npm, GitHub).

A priimer on the use of stdin/stdout and stderr
Node ffi is an unnecessary wrapper around addon api. See https://github.com/nodejs/node-addon-api
- Absolutely love this "little" 4hr project.

Calling C++ from nodejs
Did a little digging, napi is header file in an npm package that's supposed to help you build C++ addons, node_api is node's actual API. https://github.com/nodejs/node-addon-api you might have already been using this. The examples have enough code that it shouldn't be too bad to get started

Does anyone know why calling native functions (with c++ addons) is so slow, and how could I improve? Links for resources welcome
Looks like this is known: https://github.com/nodejs/node-addon-api/issues/790

Uni over prepared me for industry
Hey! I work with the NAPI(https://github.com/nodejs/node-addon-api) team and we are in dire need of some help. Dm if you are interested!

We Have to Start Over: From Atom to Zed
Great interview!
Love how much thought is being put into what you “gold-plate”. I’ve always felt that my best work comes around on round two (or three or four…).
Curious what you are planning for the ability to script the configuration? I haven’t played with zed much yet; is it possible today? Would something like Neon [1] help bridge the gap from VSCode and old Atom users?

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (27/2023)!
Is there a third option? Surely node has a way to directly call native code, similar to Python's C extensions? Some Node equivalent of PyO3? For example, I found neon which promises "safe and fast native Node.js modules".

Is converting typescript backend to Rust worth it?
Have a look at https://crates.io/crates/napi and https://crates.io/crates/neon which allow you to call rust from node. We went with napi but they're both pretty good.

Underrated Node Knowledge
Just to add: N-API is incredibly underrated. Then again, maybe the lack of a strong native modules ecosystem is an indicator that the pure JS ecosystem is just so good. But man, got something computationally intensive? Just offload it to Rust with Neon or something. Got some proprietary bit of code in your product? Build a native module.

Zig, the Small Language
> rust is not well-suited for interfacing with FFI
How so? Packages like neon [1] and rustler [2] suggest otherwise. I'm using both of those in a real product (I'm using neon directly, to write native modules for an Electron app; on the back-end, I depend on an Elixir package that uses rustler).
