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.

Take Advantage of Git Rebase
GitLab team member here, putting my personal hat on - from my experience in using different Git workflows since 2009, a smaller clean unit of work can with debugging and troubleshooting. It also provides a way to new team members and contributors to understand the thought process and ideation to implement a new architecture, apply performance fixes, add documentation, work with tests, additional fixes, until its final release. Most of this can be tracked within a MR/PR and the history of code reviews, etc. - even after the merge and squash and Git branch delete, not trying to argue with this functionality. :)
From the Git CLI, without any reference to Git* platforms, it is not so obvious when searching for a commit that introduced a bug, e.g. using "git bisect" for binary search. Reading a 10,000 lines git diff can be harder than a smaller commit that also explains the reasoning in the commit message. Speaking from own experience and programming mistakes in a small team, focussing on clean commits and a good history tremendously helped in stressful debug situations. Until you hit a compiler regression bug, but that's a different story then ;)
I'm personally still very fast on the Git CLI, but I also know that there are a variety of CLI and UI tools out there that can help with analysing large Git commits. Potentially in the future also AI assisted that tell us which change a diff caused a performance regression in a release 5 months later. Or we don't need it at all because Observability driven development enabled to see these problems before merging and code reviews, e.g. the memory leak but only when DNS fails. True story from ~2016, more in my KubeCon EU talk at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BkREMg8adaI and project at https://gitlab.com/everyonecancontribute/observability/cpp-d...

Show HN: My new free note taking tool
GitLab team member here, thanks for sharing!
I'm using the Web IDE to take notes in most of my projects, work and personal, and publish the notes with MkDocs and GitLab Pages to a searchable frontend/domain when needed. Editing also happens in Gitpod with live preview in the browser.
You can find all resources for o11y.love [0] and opsindev.news [1] in the GitLab projects, including .gitpod.yml configuration, mkdocs.yml setup, .gitlab-ci.yml deployments.
I have been writing lots of documentation in my past OSS projects, so I am used to Markdown as markup language, taking notes very fast. Learning Markdown requires some practice, and can be helped within Gitpod and the VS Code extensions, if the default preview is not sufficient. [2] [3] You can also sync the notes repository offline into VS Code as desktop IDE for example.
Using Obsidian.md to take notes and publish with GitLab pages [4] looks promising too; I have not tried it yet.

How do people feel about making code edits via web browser
They aren't using code spaces or github.dev I believe. They are actually using "Edit in place" which is adjacent to those options. The first image in this link might help:

I found a remote code execution bug in VSCode that can be triggered from untrusted workspaces. Microsoft fixed it but marked it as moderate severity and ineligible under their bug bounty program.
You are mostly right, but the "remote" aspect comes from the fact that https://github.dev/ can open any random repository (e.g. go to this LLVM README file and then hit the "github.dev" in the dropdown menu for edit). Nothing gets downloaded to your computer and happens on the cloud. You are editing a remote repository on a remote computer.

Guide for using git or npm without all the fluff?
You should know with great power comes with greater bill. You can use https://github.dev/github/dev, vscode.dev, github1s.com to WRITE and READ source code, but can't compile nor run. If you want to run, you will need Github Codespace which costs money.

Contracting an UpWork dev to make me an open source website - they want to build it with Wordpress
Checkout "github.dev" (which is based on vscode.dev)

is there a VSCode Web with integrated terminal?
last week i stumbled across vscode.dev and github.dev which are web versions of my beloved editor. Of course there is no terminal available, which made me curious? is ther a way or service that lets you use a linux container to remote into and use vscode on the go?

Be ready for failure on stage: introducing the Speaker Buddy System
TIP: If your source code is on GitHub, and you just need to show the source code, you can use github.dev, a lightweight, browser-based editor (based on VSCode) you can access by replacing .com with .dev when typing the repository URL. It even supports some extensions such as the brilliant CodeTour, which is great for showing code in a guided way throughout your session.

Tell HN: Productivity hack with github.dev and Chrome custom search engine
I can't believe I am just finding out about https://github.dev a vscode interface for any github repo. For example: https://github.dev/expo/expo/
Add a custom search engine in Chrome and you got yourself a quick shortcut to opening any repo in github dev. In the past I would clone repo then open with vs code to monkey around. Now its CMD+L , 'gd expo/expo' to open https://github.dev/expo/expo/
Instructions for adding custom omniBar search shortcuts: https://zapier.com/blog/add-search-engine-to-chrome/

What are your use cases for vscode.dev?
Just in case this isn't common knowledge: You can hit the period (.) key while on any github page to launch a vscode in browser (uses https://github.dev/).
