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.
polyform
- Ran out of time for ProcJam this year, but ended up adding vector array support to my mesh generation software so multiple people can build paths together in real-time, as well as download the models that were created.
- GitHub - Polyform: Immutable mesh generation library implemented in 100% Golang
- Made a small tutorial on how to turn a 2D image into a 3D mesh with SDFs
- My Submission for Proc Jam - Evergreen Tree Generator!

Implementing a 2d-tree in Clojure
On the flip side, I got to read some of the Clojure source code, which was very educational. I also got to understand a bit more the usefulness of protocols (using defprotocol and defrecord to provide several implementations). Here it was very useful to read the source code of thi-ng/geom.
- Manifold 3D wrapper for Clojure(Script)
- Is Quil moving forward?

Literate programming: Knuth is doing it wrong
This would make sense if Knuth used literate programming primarily for academic papers. But in fact he created WEB for writing TeX and METAFONT, both of which (while their source code was published as a book later) were production systems, and in fact for several decades now he uses CWEB for all programs he writes, including several a week that he writes for himself. (Some of which are online at https://cs.stanford.edu/~knuth/programs.html .) In contrast, apart from the paper he wrote introducing LP, and the two Bentley columns about LP in CACM, I'm not aware of any other academic paper of his that presents programs — at any rate, the total number must be very small.
The goal is not an "academic paper"; his experience (and that of others who have seriously tried LP) is that it helps with actual writing of programs, less time spent debugging, etc.
Yes, there are challenges with two or more programmers, but nothing unsurmountable. See "Literate Programming on a Team Project" (https://www.cs.princeton.edu/techreports/1991/302.pdf coauthored by Norman Ramsey, who later developed noweb) and some stories like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17484452 (and https://github.com/thi-ng/geom which went from LP to conventional).
