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.

An alternative to Elasticsearch that runs on a few MBs of RAM
Somewhat related, this guy: https://github.com/mosuka/ seems to be very passionate about search service.
He built two distributed search services:
- https://github.com/mosuka/phalanx, written in Go.
- https://github.com/mosuka/bayard, written in Rust.

Don’t forget about Phalanx if you like Bleve/Bluge.

I want to dive into how to make search engines
I've never worked on a project that encompasses as many computer science algorithms as a search engine. There are a lot of topics you can lookup in "Information Storage and Retrieval":
- Tries (patricia, radix, etc...)
- Trees (b-trees, b+trees, merkle trees, log-structured merge-tree, etc..)
- Consensus (raft, paxos, etc..)
- Block storage (disk block size optimizations, mmap files, delta storage, etc..)
- Probabilistic filters (hyperloloog, bloom filters, etc...)
- Binary Search (sstables, sorted inverted indexes, roaring bitmaps)
- Ranking (pagerank, tf/idf, bm25, etc...)
- NLP (stemming, POS tagging, subject identification, sentiment analysis etc...)
- HTML (document parsing/lexing)
- Images (exif extraction, removal, resizing / proxying, etc...)
- Queues (SQS, NATS, Apollo, etc...)
- Clustering (k-means, density, hierarchical, gaussian distributions, etc...)
- Rate limiting (leaky bucket, windowed, etc...)
- Compression
- Applied linear algebra
- Text processing (unicode-normalization, slugify, sanitation, lossless and lossy hashing like metaphone and document fingerprinting)
- etc...
I'm sure there is plenty more I've missed. There are lots of generic structures involved like hashes, linked-lists, skip-lists, heaps and priority queues and this is just to get 2000's level basic tech.

A lot of people new to this space mistakenly think you can just throw elastic search or postgres fulltext search in front of terabytes of records and have something decent. The problem is that search with good rankings often requires custom storage so calculations can be sharded among multiple nodes and you can do layered ranking without passing huge blobs of results between systems.

Why Writing Your Own Search Engine Is Hard (2004)
For those curious, I'm on my 3rd search engine as I keep discovering new methods of compactly and efficiently processing and querying results.
There isn't a one-size-fits all approach, but I've never worked on a project that encompasses as many computer science algorithms as a search engine.

A lot of people new to this space mistakenly think you can just throw elastic search or postgres fulltext search in front of terabytes of records and have something decent. That might work for something small like a curated collection of a few hundred sites.

Show HN: I built a self hosted recommendation feed to escape Google's algorithm
Is there a tool that automatically forwards every URL + HTML of the page you visit to a webhook so you could write an endpoint that would index everything?
If not, I would love to see this add a "forward to webhook" option. I would be happy to write up a real backend that parsed the content and indexed it.
Actually, there are lots of OS projects for this: https://github.com/quickwit-oss/tantivy, https://github.com/valeriansaliou/sonic, https://github.com/mosuka/phalanx, https://github.com/meilisearch/MeiliSearch, etc...

Valkey Is Rapidly Overtaking Redis
One of the challenges Redis labs here have is that there's very little reason for their userbase to stay loyal to them.
antirez retired from Redis development a few years ago.
From https://github.com/redis/redis/graphs/contributors it looks like activity since he left has been mostly from people who didn't overlap with him much.
Redis Labs have not shown themselves to be outstanding stewards of the project as far as I can tell. Why shouldn't people support the fork?
