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.

Using Retrofit Interceptors to check network connection in Android and testing it
from this point on, I will assume, you have a basic understanding of Retrofit. To get the most out of this tutorial I would actually suggest you have a retrofit client already implemented in your application.

Using OAuth2.0 and Retrofit to talk to the GitHub api on Android
This particular blog post will be us building on the information from the previous blog post and using the authorization code from the GitHub OAuth API in combination with Retrofit. To finally get a access token, which allows us to make requests to the API on a behalf of a user.

Show HN: Turn Your APIs into Swift Protocols
Hey HN!
If you're a fan of Swift you may have noticed that with WWDC 2023 came the (beta) release of macros. They're super powerful and expressive!
I've been wishing Swift had a [Retrofit](https://square.github.io/retrofit/) style API definition library for years, and with macros it seemed like this was now possible.
I'd like to show you all Papyrus, a library that turns your APIs into type-safe Swift protocols.
Would love to get your feedback.

Looking for android java developer mentor
When it comes to consuming APIs I can definitely recommend Retrofit. Hopefully that's enough to get you started on where to look!

Akka-HTTP in android
For Android you should use a more mobile friendly framework like Retrofit or if you use Kotlin you can use the multi-platform Ktor library with it's client module
-
What stack to use for app with functionality like event calendar?
Retrofit in combination with OkHttp for fetching data from server (which hopefully already exists)

Moving from iOS development and I have a question about finding dependencies
So I've been playing around with search.maven.org and perhaps I'm not quite understanding it. For example, if I look for Retrofit I'm not seeing anything that resembles retrofit above https://central.sonatype.dev/search?q=Retrofit.

Ktor or Retrofit?
I'm going to hit you with a "it depends" though whether to use ktor or retrofit. If there is any part of you that thinks you're going to support multiplatform, then ktor with no discussion. Retrofit has come out and said that's not on their road map. There is another option called ktorfit which from the name you can guess is like retrofit but built on top of ktor to support multiplatform.

Consuming a REST API using just vanilla Java!
I had a decent experience with Retrofit in the past, but that was a couple of years ago, idk if there are better tools now.

I created a simple CLI tool that helps you code FAST!
I've always wanted to build a CLI tool, and when I realized that you can build one using React with Ink, I converted my Python script into a CLI tool.

Setup Simple Web UI for Node.js App in Seconds
There is a good solution for some of those cases - ink. With ink, I can implement text-based UI with knowledge of React, which is neat but there are still some caveats for my usages:
-
Building Reactive CLIs with Ink - React CLI library
Looks cool, right? Building a similar UI in the terminal without any library would be quite hard, though, thanks to Ink it's almost as easy as building any frontend UI with React.

Terminal-like output library for js?

Launch HN: Resend (YC W23) โ Email API for Developers Using React
You get the comfort of using react components instead of fighting with HTML tables to make your emails look nice. I think it's awesome! It's analog to what ink[0] does with CLI outputs. Sure, you could write fancy CLI outputs in bash, but ink takes the pain out of it and makes it easy.

Is Node.js a good way to implement a CLI app with persistence?
Due to Node's asynchronous behavior, it makes Node great for long-running processes that make a lot of HTTP requests, database calls, and other async ops, like a web server or a REST API. However, if I am making a CLI tool for pretty much personal use only, with very minimal async operations, then blocking the event loop with a synchronous function that will resolve almost immediately will make no difference perceivable to a human brain or have any speed benefits that someone can actually observe (think `fs.readFileSync` or `require('dotenv') of 10 line config file, or a quick embedded db (sqlite) query with only ~100 records. I'm wondering what the best way to implement the database part of the app synchronous. I can read/write to JSON files but it would be tricky because the data is relational, and some complex joins and other data wrangling operations are required (complex to perform in JS but are easy to implement in a SQL statement). It's not important what the operations are, that's not the point of this post. This is mostly a personal project of interest: making this CLI tool completely avoiding any async operations/using no promises. I would like to use node tho, as I said this is just out of interest and I also want to experiment with several CLI libraries such as Ink or Cliffy.

Ink: React for interactive command-line apps
Ink is amazing for quickly hacking together TUIs. I recently did so with Nbb (Node Babashka) and and enjoyed the experience overall.
My only real complaint is how everything in your VDOM seems to re-render on a state change. IIRC this is being addressed [1], but is something to be mindful of, especially if your users may be using slow machines.

create-helix-app: project templates with Helix and more
To try it out, run npx create-helix-app in your terminal. It is powered by Nbb, Ink, and Helix itself!
