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.

A Step-by-Step Guide to Implement JWT Authentication in NestJS using Passport
❓ Why is hashing and salting passwords mandatory? A salt is simply a random data used as an additional input to the hashing function to safeguard your password. The random string from the salt makes the hash unpredictable. A password hash involves converting the password into an alphanumeric string using specialized algorithms. Hashing and salting are irreversible and ensure that even if someone gains access to the hashed passwords, they will not be able to decrypt them to recover the original passwords. Hystorically bcrypt is recognized as the best hashing algorithm. However, in terms of robustness against all the new cryptographic attacks targeting hashing algorithms, the current clear winner is argon2. However, since the “youth" (2015) of this algorithm, I chose to use bcrypt

Best Node hashing algorithm option?
Argon2: this is the newest highly recommended algorithm, and recommended by OWASP. (Edit: originally linked to a low-download library.)

Correct parameters to migrate from Bcrypt to Argon2 for express?
As per security.stackexchange.com the recommended number of rounds for Bcrypt is a number such that it takes atleast 250 ms to hash your password. Argon2 on the other hand takes multiple parameters it seems. What is the equivalent configuration you need for Argon2? I am talking about an express webserver here with passportjs if that helps

Ask HN: Those making $0/month or less on side projects – Show and tell
Kruptein: https://github.com/jas-/kruptein
A node.js module which implements a standard API for symmetric encryption and does so by providing the requisite key derivation from a supplied secret, strong key and cipher selections, performs validate then decrypt of cipher text while supporting most language character sets and ASN.1 encoding ensuring compatibility with most if not all database engines.
Used best practices documentation and am currently using famous cryptographers throughout history to name each release.
Built to help provide a simple drop in for protecting data at rest without the fuss of making a bad decision on how to protect it.
