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.

Sourcegraph is no longer Open Source
[4] is not really a usable 'product'. Livegrep (https://github.com/livegrep/livegrep) was inspired by it and is very usable.
[3] used to be a Google open source project as well, but it fell out of maintenance, and Sourcegraph took it over. It powers most of the basic regex/literal search in Sourcegraph.
Mozilla's code is searchable in Searchfox (https://searchfox.org/) which uses the indexer from Livegrep, combined with their own Git indexer and language-specific cross reference databases.
OpenGrok (https://github.com/oracle/opengrok) is also rather well known, but I have found it to have a slightly worse UI than alternatives.

Improving GitHub Code Search
My job uses https://oracle.github.io/opengrok/ and I'm generally happy with it. It has some problems with special character searches at times but generally does what I want. It's certainly better than code search in our on-prem github instance.

Is there a tool that would allow me to query (structured search) a codebase?
I used it a long time ago, but I see this is still around: https://oracle.github.io/opengrok/

This one made its way into my English textbook
You've never come across https://github.com/oracle/opengrok for example?

Ripgrep is faster than {grep, ag, Git grep, ucg, pt, sift}
That’s one of the reasons I made this actually https://github.com/boyter/cs
I wanted and boolean syntax mixed with fzf instant search. It’s not as fast as ripgrep of course but it’s not solving the same problem.
- Sourcegraph is no longer Open Source
- codespelunker
- cs: command line codespelunker or code search written in Go
- codespelunker (cs) A command line search tool. Allows you to search over code or text files in the current directory either on the console, via a TUI or HTTP server, using some boolean queries or regular expressions.

Lmgrep: Lucene-based grep-like utility
Neat. This is similar to a tool I have been working on (but need to finish off) as I saw the same issue.
Except rather than build an index I brute forced the search each time. For most repositories it’s fast enough even with ranking.
https://github.com/boyter/cs For those interested it’s still very WIP with noticeable issues in TUI mode.

Ask HN: What Are You Working On?
A few things.
An implementation of bitfunnel search in Go which I plan to put into searchcode.com at some point once I get all the issues resolved and if performance is acceptable
A command line search tool which brute forces with search ranking https://github.com/boyter/cs/ mostly for code but works pretty well for other things as well
Atlassian Confluence Cloud plugins. Mostly out of personal interest and because there appears to be a good marketplace to produce mostly passive income there.
What are some alternatives?
hound - Lightning fast code searching made easy
git-peek - git repo to local editor instantly
sourcegraph - Code AI platform with Code Search & Cody
dcs - Debian Code Search (codesearch.debian.net) is a search engine that searches through all the 130 GB of open source software that is included in Debian. Supports regular expressions!
Glean - System for collecting, deriving and working with facts about source code.
the_silver_searcher - A code-searching tool similar to ack, but faster.
ctoc - Count Tokens of Code (forked from gocloc)
Javet - Javet is Java + V8 (JAVa + V + EighT). It is an awesome way of embedding Node.js and V8 in Java.
lucene-grep - Grep-like utility based on Lucene Monitor compiled with GraalVM native-image
zoekt - Fast trigram based code search
livegrep - Interactively grep source code. Source for http://livegrep.com/
