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.

- Process Compose: flexible scheduler to manage non-containerized apps

Show HN: Is_ready – Wait for many services to become available – 0 Dependencies
The IMO superior https://github.com/F1bonacc1/process-compose project has this built in, while allowing to manage regular programs that don't require containers.

Show HN: Flox 1.0 – Open-source dev env as code with Nix
Devbox can also run services too. Both products use an awesome process runner called process-compose (https://github.com/f1bonacc1/process-compose/) which is worth checking out (it's even built with nix!)

Container + SSH = a good development environment
I've been using https://github.com/F1bonacc1/process-compose with great success.
It's a userspace process compositor that works across all relevant platforms, supporting daemon processes and k8s style readiness/health checks.
In combination with nix flakes, it quickly reduced my projects docker-compose usage for easy-to-configure services.
This gave huge performance benefits for the M1 Mac folks on my team especially for CPU intensive processes thanks to native binaries.
For maximal ease of use, the remaining docker-compose containers are started/stopped as a process-compose task.

If docker-compose and K9S had a baby (without the containers gene)
In order to run a simple client-server (1 client, 5 servers) application, I wrote a simple docker-compose file and everything worked great. My dev flow would be the usual: make some changes/optimizations, spin everything up, run a bunch of tests, and go back to step one. At some point, I felt that for my dev environment and language (Linux, golang). docker-compose is great for spinning everything up, but for rapid development, it actually slows me down. I didn't really need containers. I tried to find an alternative solution. Something like a docker-compose, but for native processes, but most of the tools that I found were CI/CD oriented. I like K9S (who doesn't?) and I like docker-compose (some don't), so I built a Frankenstein Monster of them both :) https://github.com/F1bonacc1/process-compose I am not sure if you'll find it as useful as I do, but in any case, any feedback is more than welcome.

Show HN: Lapdev, a new open-source remote dev environment management software
Hi, Lapdev dev here. Let me try to answer your question.
It's installed on a remote server so it provides remote environments. If you use VSCode remote, then you can "open" it through VSCode remote ssh.
The environment that Lapdev provides essentially is a container (other format is on the roadmap) with things pre-installed as defined in Devcontainer(https://containers.dev/) format.

Show HN: Flox 1.0 – Open-source dev env as code with Nix
Happy to take this one, as I am one of the cofounder of Daytona.
Daytona solves all the automation and provisioning of the dev environment, actually wrote an article here laying out exactly what we do: https://www.daytona.io/dotfiles/diy-guide-to-transform-any-m...
Daytona currently supports only the dev container (https://containers.dev/) "dev env infrastructure as code" standard, but are looking to support others such as devfile, nix and flox.
Hope this helps

A Journey to Find an Ultimate Development Environment
The full usage of the container means that you'll do the development inside the container. All the tools for development need to be installed inside the container. One of the technologies that leverage this approach is Devcontainers.

How CDEs work - no bs blog post
Two standards for CDE configuration exist: devfile.yml and devcontainer.json. Both assume that the CDE is a single container and allow specification of which tools should be deployed to this container, as well as a reference to scripts that should run after the container has been created.

Launching dev containers from code - is impossible?

Dev Containers: Open, Develop, Repeat...
How it works? Dev Containers is a specification based on Docker. This specification describes a metadata file (devcontainer.json), which defines how the project (Docker container, IDE settings, plugins, etc) is set up.

Try MongoDB and Laravel in 1-click via GitHub Codespaces
Codespaces is built to run Dev Containers, an open standard for Development Containers. The Dev Container will reference a Docker build file, which describes the software and services our app is running on. It also defines things related to our development environment, including IDE plugins, network ports, and more.

Is there some catch to cause DNS issues on Linux, that is not common with Windows or Mac?
I was using Devcontainer with VS Code. In a part of the container build process, DNS lookup seemed to be failing in Debian 12. BTW, the container image was based on Debian 11. I probably tried it about 10 times in total, so I'm pretty sure it persisted, not an one time error. I noticed the build process was failing because the process failed to find some domains, with an error message like could not resolve host github.com. Some domains I noticed was github.com and ghcr.io, so it failed sometimes for one domain, and sometimes for the other.
