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.

Generate Flowcharts from Text
I love when underlying data structures boil down to directed graphs. Turns out that indentation is a bad way to represent graphs (as someone who has tried many times to encode large Kubernetes service topologies in YAML). A language like dot or virgo (https://github.com/r2d4/virgo) seem more appropriate for this task

10 Ways for Kubernetes Declarative Configuration Management
YTT - YTT is a templating tool that understands YAML structure. It helps you easily configure complex software via reusable templates and user provided values using the Starlark language.

Alternatives to Helm/Kustomize for complex Kubernetes Deployments
Adding https://carvel.dev/ytt/ to the list. I was happy using this tool as IMO it mixes good things from Helm and Kustomize, however the syntax is ugly and repelling my colleagues to have a closer look.

The YAML Document from Hell
> Templating yaml is a terrible, terrible idea
I've had a good time using ytt: https://carvel.dev/ytt/. It implements language-aware templating, which is IMO the only reasonable way to do it.

Creating Kubernetes Templates
`ytt` is part of the Carvel toolchain. https://carvel.dev/ytt/

Dealing with YAML overload
I agree with you on `you will want to see just plain texts instead of a bunch of templating token with hidden logic.` Which is why I think https://carvel.dev/ytt/ would be great. We could generate these templates in pipelines, or we could just make it easier to maintain what we have.

How to handle the lifecycle of multiple COTS
For more advanced configuration management you might be interested in ytt ( https://carvel.dev/ytt/ ) which is a "yaml-aware" templating tool. it lets you do "patches" via an overlay mechanism to add or remove specific yaml blocks, and it also lets you use a simplified python dialect for more complicated logic. With ytt you would put your DNS IP into a "data values" file and then run ytt to render it into the configs before handing them off to the deployment tool. e.g. `ytt -f | kubectl apply`

The Dhall Configuration Language
I said this above as well: ytt (https://carvel.dev/ytt/) lets you embed starlark into valid yaml, among other cute tricks for managing biz-logic in configs.
