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.

Show HN: a Rust Based CLI tool 'imgcatr' for displaying images
While not CLI, I always look for cross platform image viewers and found https://github.com/woelper/oculante.
Had a few woes compiling it due to my laptops configuration, but once compiled it works with everything I would reasonably throw at it.

Notan, a library that allows you to create cross-platform apps with a simple API just released version 0.8.0!!
I use it to create games with the draw2d API, and then egui to show debug options on top of it. But there are people using it to create apps or demos, https://valdes.cc/articles/introducing_penduolum.html or https://github.com/woelper/oculante are some good examples.

Oculante - yet another image viewer
Thanks! Please give feedback or open a ticket on github if you are missing something!

The Bun Shell
I agree. I’ve written about this before but this is what murex (1) does. It reimplements some of coreutils where there are benefits in doing so (eg sed, grep etc -like parsing of lists that are in formats other than flat lines of text. Such as JSON arrays)
Mutex does this by having these utilities named slightly different to their POSIX counterparts. So you can use all of the existing CLI tools completely but additionally have a bunch of new stuff too.
Far too many alt shells these days try to replace coreutils and that just creates friction in my opinion.

Jaq – A jq clone focused on correctness, speed, and simplicity
This is exactly what Murex shell does. It has lots of builtin tools for querying structured data (of varying formats) but also supports POSIX pipes for using existing tools like `jq` et al seamlessly too.

The Case for Nushell
Stable is a problem because a lot of these shells don’t offer any guarantees for breaking changes.
My own shell, https://github.com/lmorg/murex is committed to backwards compatibility but even here, there are occasional changes made that might break backwards compatibility. Though I do push back on such changes as much as possible, to the extent that most of my scripts from 5 years ago still run unmodified.

Nushell.sh ls – where size > 10mb – –sort-by modified
This is similar to how my shell works. It still just passes bytes around but additionally passes information about how those bytes could be interpreted. A schema if you will. So it works as cleanly with POSIX / GNU / et al tools as it does with fancy JSON, YAML, CSV and other document formats.
It basically sits somewhere between Powershell and Bash: typed pipelines like Powershell but without sacrificing familiarity with all the CLI commands you already use day in and day out.

As an aside, I’m about to drop a massive update in the next few days that will make the shell even more intuitive to use.
