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.

5 Ways to Make HTTP Requests in Node.js
Node Fetch is a JavaScript library tailored for Node.js that simplifies making HTTP requests. It offers a straightforward and Promise-based approach for fetching resources from the internet or server, such as GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE requests. Designed for server-side applications, it's compatible with the Fetch API, allowing easy code transition between client-side and server-side environments.

CommonJS Is Hurting JavaScript
Would anyone be interested in an article about the crusade to move JS to ESM? I've been considering writing one, here's a preview:
Sindresorus wrote a gist "Pure ESM modules"[0] and converted all his modules to Pure ESM, breaking anyone `require`ing his code; he later locked the thread to prevent people from complaining. node-fetch released a pure ESM version a year ago that is 16x less popular than the CommonJS version[1]. The results of these changes broke a lot of code and resulted in many hours of developers figuring out how make their projects compatible with Pure ESM modules (or decide to ignore them and use old CommonJS versions)--not to mention the tons of pointless drama on GitHub issues.
Meanwhile, TC-39 member Matteo Collima advocated a moderate approach dependent on where your module will be run [2]. So the crusade is led not by the Church, but by a handful of zealots dedicated to establishing ESM supremacy for unclear reasons (note how Sindresorus' gist lacks any justifications). It's kind of like the Python 2 to 3 move except with even less rationale and not driven by the core devs.

Next-Level Technical Blogging with Dev.to API
The API is CORS-enabled, meaning you’ll have to use the getArticles() functions from your backend. For making the actual request, you can use the fetch() function, available since Node.js v18. For older versions of Node.js, you can use a fetch()-compatible library like node-fetch.

How to Parse RSS Feed in Javascript
The RSS feed's URL will then need to be requested over the network. The native fetch API of JavaScript will be used since it is the most efficient. It undoubtedly works in browsers, and it appears that Node has a pretty well-liked implementation of it.

Exploring the Most Commonly Used Folder Names in Popular NPM Packages
docs: Documentation is an essential part of any package, as it provides users with the information they need to understand how to use it and how it works. The documentation usually includes usage instructions, API documentation, and more. It can also be included directly in the repository's README.md file, but it's often split into multiple files and stored in this folder for ease of navigation and maintenance. Although the documentation files can be in any format, the most common one is Markdown. Example from node-fetch.

Exploring competitive features in Node.js v18 and v19
Before Node.js v18, you had to install node-fetch or Axios to request a resource from a server. With Node.js v18, you no longer need to install either package thanks to v18’s experimental Fetch API, which is available globally.

API Client Design Across Languages - Part 2 - Making Requests
Like Python, our Node.js SDK is using a well-known library axios. While it is not quite as ubiquitous as Python's requests, it is very commonly used. For instance, it is used by Auth0 (if you're looking for a different example, Shopify makes use of Got). You can find it configured here. The shared client code takes reqeust and response transform functions for each resource to convert the repsonses to objects.

7 Ways to Improve Node.js Performance at Scale
At the moment, axios does not support setting a connection timeout separately from a read timeout, which could be limiting in some scenarios. If you need this functionality, you can try the got library - it allows for separate read and connection timeout specifications.

Can someone tell me about secure and stable alternatives to the "request" library from npm? Because request is deprecated :(
I've used Axios and Got. Both have been solid. The only issue I've had is with Got and an issue with auth credential encoding due to a bug in NodeJS: https://github.com/sindresorhus/got/issues/1169

Why should you try Expo - it is a great platform and if you have never tried or you have experience with old versions you probably should try it.
My corporate network is pretty locked down and all traffic runs through a proxy. There have been a number of times where the Expo CLI has exploded or hung or just silently failed due to failure to respect system settings for things like proxies. What's odd is that not everything fails, only some things. Sometimes it's due to delegating certain requests to other cli libraries which themselves don't respect these settings correctly. For these I generally try to track down the bugs and open issues / submit PRs where possible, but they don't always get picked up. My "favorite" experience with this was when a package owner closed an issue claiming proxy support should instead be added to the lower level package (that he also owns) but then closed the proxy support issue on that lower level package claiming "it's just too complicated" and passing the buck back up to package consumers, creating a nice catch-22.

GraphQL via HTTP in five ways: cURL, Python, JavaScript, Ruby and PHP
Similarly to the Python instructions, we'll be making use of an HTTP library for JavaScript. Since the JavaScript version of requests is no longer supported, we'll take advantage of got. In a new directory, run npm install got. Create a new request.js file with the following code.
What are some alternatives?
axios - Promise based HTTP client for the browser and node.js
request - 🏊🏾 Simplified HTTP request client.
cross-fetch - Universal WHATWG Fetch API for Node, Browsers and React Native.
undici - An HTTP/1.1 client, written from scratch for Node.js
superagent - Ajax for Node.js and browsers (JS HTTP client). Maintained for @forwardemail, @ladjs, @spamscanner, @breejs, @cabinjs, and @lassjs.
