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.

Connecting Debugger to Rails Applications
Another solution is to use a different tool to drive the Procfile. The one I'm most familiar with is a tool called overmind. If you run your Procfile with overmind, you'll be able to open up a new terminal window and individually connect to any of the processes that are running. So if you want to connect to the web process to debug, you can open up a new window and run overmind connect web, and you'll have a window where you can work with the debugger's prompt.

Overmind, a better foreman or bin/dev for your Procfile
I recently wrote about Overmind (https://github.com/DarthSim/overmind), a drop in replacement for foreman.
If you've ever used Forman or another local Procfile/process manager, I think you'll love Overmind.
It's basically a more customisable foreman that runs in tmux - which means you can do cool things like tmux into a process and attach a debugger (which is nearly impossible with foreman).
Hope you enjoy the article!

Procfile.dev, bin/dev, and Rails 7 — how they work, and why (I think) they're great.
We switched to overmind and it's been great.
Hey, thanks for the comment u/sjieg! I don't have anything to add here, apart from suggesting the Overmind gem (https://github.com/DarthSim/overmind), which I just learnt about from another comment.

Show HN: Localias, securely manage local devserver aliases
I run an app with a bunch of separate processes managed in a Procfile invoked by Overmind (https://github.com/DarthSim/overmind):
```
app-web: cd app && poetry run invoke server
app-vite: cd app && pnpm dev
app-storybook: cd app && pnpm story:dev
api: cd api && poetry run invoke server
docs: cd docs && npm run dev
marketing: cd marketing && source .env && npm run dev
```
Maybe it's my getting older, but I've found it _infuriating_ to remember which process is bound to 3003 vs 3002 vs 3001 and so on. Very grateful for this project so I can save myself a couple seconds of frustration every day — t/y OP for building it!

Yew + Actix project
Use Overmind or cargo-runcc to run multiple commands in a single terminal, instead of running the server and the client in separate terminals

Fly.io and Tailscale Saved Notado
FYI: Your link for Overmind is to the wrong project. The process manager is https://github.com/DarthSim/overmind
The article currently links to a deprecated Angular.js project with the same name (https://github.com/geddski/overmind)

Run multiple discord.py from main.py
However, as you might expect, managing that becomes a bit of a chore in the long run, this is where my recommendation of Overmind comes in.

Overmind, a better foreman or bin/dev for your Procfile
I was confused because there is https://github.com/ddollar/foreman and https://github.com/theforeman/foreman

Ask HN: CLI tool like Docker-compose but fully local?
Are you looking for something like https://github.com/ddollar/foreman?

Spin up your development background processes with ease
Btw, there's a large number of tools that use the Procfile file format, including what appears to be the original one, written in Ruby https://github.com/ddollar/foreman (the readme has links to a partial list of foreman clones)
But I agree that overmind is the best of the bunch

Setup TailwindCSS, postcss and esbuild on Rails 7
We ran our app via bin/dev. You can find the div file inside ./bin/dev folder. It is a ruby wrapper over the process manager forman which manages Procfile-based applications. Rails automatically install foreman gem but it doesn’t bundle it because forman recommends NOT to do 🚫

Note: Alternatively, you can install Foreman on your computer and execute the ./bin/dev command to simultaneously generate the TailwindCSS classes and also run the Rails server in a single terminal.

Simpler Dev Environments with Procfiles
Obviously, we still need to install a runner to handle this procfile. Meet foreman, or one of it's forks. Foreman is a Ruby script, so for that you'll need to have Ruby installed. There are many forks though. Such as shoreman, which is a dependency free shell script, or node-foreman, which is a javascript fork. I go with node-foreman, for the simple reason that I'm a node guy and I like that I can npm install it to the dependencies of my node projects.

Using Foreman to start services in development
Comes Foreman to the rescue! Foreman is a gem (for Ruby, but it already ported to many others languages) that will load a Procfile and start/stop the services configured by demand.

A bin/dev file - This should be how you run your application in development. It runs (and optionally installs if you don't have it) Foreman, so you can run your server and build Javsacript on the fly

Launching Multiple Processes with a Single Command in Rails
So far, whenever I started the Rails app, I launched these supporting processes in multiple terminal windows. This week, I learned a new way to do this using a single command using the Foreman gem, which has saved me a lot of time.
