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.

Securely Chaining Wi-Fi Routers (2022)
An "advert" for a BSD-licensed open-source codebase? Pointers to a comparable OSS networking project, implemented in memory-safe golang or rust, would be appreciated. There is https://router7.org, but for a narrow use case.

Gokrazy Is Cool
I'm also a fan of router7[0] which is based on gokrazy. I'd love to build my own router like it some day.

Building Rust code for my OpenWrt Wi-Fi router
You can do more in a single binary, in the style of BusyBox / router7. Of course, you'd still have to ship BusyBox for admin/debug purposes, but you can save some disk space and probably boot performance too if you don't spawn new processes for every write to /proc or whatever.

random question from a beginner, has anyone written an OS in Go?

If I know neither Go or Rust, which do I choose to learn first/only?
But there are other brave people exists like biscuit or gopher-os who can do it :)))

Can Go be used for kernel development?
Can it? Yes. Should it? Now that’s up for debate.

The one and only..
golang? https://github.com/gopher-os/gopher-os

random question from a beginner, has anyone written an OS in Go?
I'm sure it would be a fun proof of concept, and there seem to be some projects like https://github.com/gopher-os/gopher-os , but they themselves admit it's just a proof of concept. Every tool has its use.

Go is a nice improvement over C and C++, and it doesn't make me feel dirty like Java does.
I’m pretty the C in the the OS is just the libc that is used for user programs and not part of the actual kernel. There is also gopherOS which contains no C at all. My only point was that it is possible to write one in Go and that Go can be used for low level coding. And I don’t believe you can write an OS in pure python bc it isn’t compiled

Wow that feels real good
Wait. You're not who we asked for
What are some alternatives?
eggos - A Go unikernel running on x86 bare metal
serenity - The Serenity Operating System 🐞
u-root - A fully Go userland with Linux bootloaders! u-root can create a one-binary root file system (initramfs) containing a busybox-like set of tools written in Go.
go - The Go programming language with support for bare-matal programing
Cosmos - Cosmos is an operating system "construction kit". Build your own OS using managed languages such as C#, VB.NET, and more!
mkfs - gokrazy mkfs is a program to create an ext4 file system on the gokrazy perm partition
Harbol - Harbol is a collection of data structures and miscellaneous libraries, similar in nature to C++'s Boost, STL, and GNOME's GLib; it is meant to be a smaller and more lightweight collection of data structures, code systems, and convenience software.
ground-init - Install a Linux machine locally with something that is almost, but not quite, cloud-init
biscuit - Biscuit research OS
gvisor - Application Kernel for Containers
mirage - MirageOS is a library operating system that constructs unikernels
