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.

GitHub Actions could be so much better
Y axis is tool selection. Positive region of axis is “use a DSL”, lower region is “use a GeneralPurposeProgrammingLanguage”
The line starts at the origin, has a SMALL positive bump, than plummets downwards near vertically.
Gets it right? Tools like ocurrent (contrasted against GH actions) [1], cdk (contrasted against TF yaml) [2]
Gets it wrong? Well, see parent post. This made me so crazy at work (where seemingly everyone has been drinking the yaml dsl koolaide) that i built a local product simulator and yaml generator for their systems because “coding” against the product was so untenable.

Show HN: Automation the KISS way. No YAML involved
Keep working on this. It’s a splendid idea. Would be cool to eventually have a recipe where you import the crate, then program the deploy in rust, invoking your tool which builds my-build.rs, or a proper cargo build.
The following not true apples to apples, but pretty close. Rather than another crummy stringy DSL, the ocaml community said “we want to program our CI pipelines in OCaml”. So, they created https://github.com/ocurrent/ocurrent. You build your pipeline in an incredible language—then the CI server simply invokes your pipeline code, assuming you’ve implemented a basic interface.

GitHub Actions could be so much better
I wrote a command-line tool that streamlines retrieving test results from GitHub Actions even further. Essentially parses jest/tsc/eslint errors in GHA jobs' logs for the current's branch PR. https://github.com/raine/ghtool
