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.

Adding a React Native version to an existing React web project.
that has my package.json file and some other testing stuff. (I don't know if that's really clear, you can just look at the file structure here if it's helpful https://github.com/platelet-app/platelet)
- Anybody need tests written for their open source project?

Ask HN: Who Wants to Collaborate?

I'm working on a project to develop a dispatch system for volunteer emergency couriers, aka blood bikes. They deliver samples, blood, donated breast milk and equipment between hospitals around the UK, as well as supply blood to air ambulances.
The app is meant to replace a system of pen, paper and spreadsheets that the service is mostly being run on. I've been working directly with the charities for it to best suit their needs.
It uses React, JavaSript, Material UI, Jest, Redux and React Testing Library. Eventually I'd like to develop a React Native mobile app too.
There are some details on the issues page https://github.com/platelet-app/platelet/issues about some of the work that still needs to be done.
I have a Discord too although it's a little quiet - https://discord.gg/tWhCM98ckB
I'd be glad to hear from anyone who feels like they'd want to contribute. If you have any questions, feel free to ping me (Ducky) on Discord.

Official Stormgate Gameplay Reveal AMA Thread with Frost Giant Studios
We have a partnership with Hathora (https://hathora.dev/) so that our infrastructure can scale globally with high performance so we can provide the best user experience possible despite the realities of playing games over the internet. We also have some big plans around using rollback that we've covered elsewhere that we're cautiously optimistic about.

Show HN: Building an infinitely scalable multiplayer game
I cofounded Hathora (https://hathora.dev/) last year and we've been working on making it easier for smaller teams and individual developers to build scalable multiplayer games. We think the serverless model is the simplest approach, allowing you to dynamically provision a new instance of your game server when users or your matchmaker requests a new session.
We made this .io style demo to showcase this approach, and we're releasing the source code and documentation alongside with it.

Multiplayer hosting and scaling
Hey I'm the creator of https://hathora.dev/ which aims to provide a super simple deployment and scaling experience for session-based games. It's based on containers and can deploy any kind of game server. Check it out and see if it meets your needs!

Scalable WebSocket Architecture
At Hathora, our mission is to make it easier for developers to build, launch, and scale multiplayer games. One of the core technologies we have built is the Hathora Coordinator, which is our fully managed multi-tenant implementation of a Stateful Router.

Ask HN: Any solo game developers here?
Hi there! I started a company this year focused on multiplayer server infrastructure. We also built a multiplayer game framework for Typescript that has gotten 400+ stars on Github in the past few months: https://github.com/hathora/hathora
Would love to connect and exchange notes about multiplayer development -- if you're interested, my email is on my profile.

How Do Video Games Stay in Sync? An Intro to the Fascinating Networking O (Cont)
I've been working on my own realtime networking engine[0] and I think there are a few important points related to network syncing that are not mentioned in this article:
1) Bandwidth. The users internet can only handle so much network throughput, so for fast paced games (where you're sending data to each client at a rate of 20+ frames per second) it becomes important to optimize your per-frame packet size. This means using techniques like binary encoding and delta compression (only send diffs).
2) Server infrastructure. For client-server games, latency is going to be a function of server placement. If you only have a single server that is deployed in us-east and a bunch of users want to play with each other in Australia, their experience is going to suffer massively. Ideally you want a global network of servers and try to route users to their closest server.
3) TCP vs UDP. Packet loss is a very real problem, and you don't want clients to be stuck waiting for old packets to be resent to them when they already have the latest data. UDP makes a major difference in gameplay when dealing with lossy networks.
