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.

HTML Web Components
Most people using react aren't building SPAs. Vue/React can be used the same way as jquery, which is to add enhanced UI functionality that server-side HTML views simply can't offer.
The best example is a multi-select box, or a searchable select box with autocomplete (what W3 calls the combobox pattern https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/apg/patterns/combobox/) which in jquery was usually via https://select2.org/
For example, on my company website there's a timezone select box with are 151 options. Asking a user to simply scroll through 100+ to find theirs is annoying vs typing a few characters and hitting enter.
There's many examples of select boxes like that and there really is no static server-side way to solve this problem (I tried hard to think of one)... without creating a multi-page Wizard for what should be a single field on a larger form.
If you're building a SaaS product there are many highly-interactive components that demand JS and there's really no better mainstream solution atm than static-first sites with small "islands" of Vue/React style components (ideally with hydration) where interactivity is required.
People still abuse React/Vue of course, but the trend is 100% moving back to "mostly static" rather than slow SPAs and IMO JS-powered components are not never going away unless browsers start offering these complex components built-in.

I add a log database for my Django project what to do ??
I’m a fan of select2 (https://select2.org), it supports loading in data from a foreign source (API)

Formset factory for displaying hundreds of records for editing. Is there a better way?
You could use a Select2() for the records which prevent the massive amount of data being transferred.

What are the popular PHP Frameworks you are using for the development of web applications and why?
Sometimes I still import it for only one thing : select2 that depends on it. Does anyone have an alternative ? I'd love it

Better way of selecting Foreign key objects in django admin form
The traditional solution was to use ModelAdmin.raw_id_fields, a comma-delimited string of IDs in a text input. Many users found the interaction inelegant, and so ModelAdmin.autocomplete_fields with live search integration with Select2 was added in Django 2.0.

How would i go about displaying more information of objects in a ModelForm?
The module django-extensions has a searchable select box widget. There are others using Select2 as well.

VanJS: A 0.9KB JavaScript UI framework
The preact team also dislikes transpiling jsx so they've developed an alternative using tagged template literals: https://github.com/developit/htm

React SSR web-server from scratch
So getting this to work without bundler magic is very hard. It's not surprising why NextJS is investing in a bundler. Though one thing that really sticks out is how much complexity we add for just miniscule dev ergonomics. Not using JSX and using something like htm would make all this easier (removing the bundler entirely), it's a lot of overhead to avoid a couple of quotes. React should really have a tagged-template mode. Also all of this is indirection is actually bad for dev ergonomics too! One of the reasons I did this is because I'm absolutely sick of magic caches and sorting through code that's been crushed by a bundler into something I don't recognize and can't easily debug. While we can't get rid of this completely (ts/jsx) this preserves the module import graph completely on the client-side making it easy to find things as you are working and preserving line numbers. This obviously is not useful for a production build and there's a lot of work that would need to go in to support both modes over the same code, but it's depressing no tools really work like this for local development.

You can also do JSX and skip the build step with preact + htm : https://github.com/developit/htm#example

Service Worker Templating Language (SWTL)
While I was able to achieve this fairly easily, the developer experience of manually stitching strings together wasnt great. Being myself a fan of buildless libraries, such as htm and lit-html, I figured I'd try to take a stab at implementing a DSL for component-like templating in Service Workers myself, called Service Worker Templating Language (SWTL), here's what it looks like:

Create and Hydrate HTML with HTM
I thought the same thing, but apparently "HTM" is a JSX like javascript string template representation of HTML, and it can be found here: https://github.com/developit/htm

Anyone using React from just a CDN, barbarian style?
If you're going to do a no-build approach, assume modern JS (so you don't have to transpile the JS syntax). Also, you can use https://github.com/developit/htm as a nearly-identical equivalent to JSX syntax, also without transpiling.

Simple Modern JavaScript Using JavaScript Modules and Import Maps
This seems like a case of caring way too much about something that's hardly very different. JSX versus tagged template strings can be incredibly similar to one another.
The examples in this article are using vanilla template strings to author raw html, but that only misses a couple of nicities JSX has. There are tagged template string libraries like htm[1] that do include some of the few nicities JSX has, but which are actually compatible with the official language.

A few programming language features I’d like to see
The first one exists in JavaScript and is called Tagged Template Literals. I agree with the author that its a nice feature. It's the perfect construct to use for prepared SQL statements, LINQ-style queries, or reimplementing a JSX-like syntax (see HTM https://github.com/developit/htm).

Using React without JSX == no build
There is however a library that is closer to JSX (HTML-like feel) but yet does not require a build step. htm. HTM uses tagged templates to leverage template literal as native Javascript template strings. If you have not played with tagged templates, I encourage you to check this out, it's a quite powerful feature, that has recently become a part of Javascript.
