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.

Bash Menu
I really like using something like fuzzy search for menus like these. https://github.com/Cloudef/bemenu is pretty cool in that it works both in a terminal, X11 and on Wayland, so if you want to do something graphical later you can easily migrate. There's also fzf and skim, which work similarly but are only for the terminal.

FzfLua Quickstart: it's never been easier to try out fzf-lua
Current profiles (to be improved upon): | Profile | Details | | ---------------- | ------------------------------------------ | | default | fzf-lua defaults, uses neovim "builtin" previewer and devicons (if available) for git/files/buffers | | fzf-native | utilizes fzf's native previewing ability in the terminal where possible using bat for previews | | fzf-tmux | similar to fzf-native and opens in a tmux popup (requires tmux > 3.2) | | max-perf | similar to fzf-native and disables icons globally for max performance | | telescope | closest match to telescope defaults in look and feel and keybinds | | skim | uses skim as an fzf alternative, (requires the sk binary) |

Is there a way to unravel a filepath based on a known end file?
There’s also a variety of fuzzy finders like https://github.com/lotabout/skim or fzf. Basically the same thing, but different interface.

I wrote a "12 favourite terminal tools" list-article, what did I left out that should be absolutely included?
Have you ever tried sk? skim is an fzf re-write in 🦞. While I use it occasionally, I never really incorporated fzf into my workflow so I'd be interested to hear your opinion.

Zsh history syntax highlighting on fzf-history-widget?
I’m not familiar at all with fzf, but I do know that skim supports this.
- CLI Item Selection Interface?

I like the Odin programming language
You state that as a blank and white fact, but there's nuance.

Toolong: Terminal application to view, tail, merge, and search log files
The code base seems like a good reference as a small Python project.
My fav option in this class of apps: https://lnav.org/ It lets you use journalctl with pipes as requested here: https://github.com/Textualize/toolong/issues/4

Logdy.dev – web based logs viewer UI for local development environment
For local development, I cannot recommend lnav[1] enough. Discovering this tool was a game changer in my day to day life. Adding comments, filtering in/out, prettify and analyse distribution is hard to live without now.
I don't think a browser tool would fit in my workflow. I need to pipe the output to the tool.

Ask HN: How does `lnav` run its playground which you can just SSH into?
It looks like they run an SSH server inside a Docker container defined by this Dockerfile [1]. This uses the ForceCommand directive in the sshd_config file to ensure that a specific command is run when a user connects (rather than the user connecting directly to a shell).
Depending on whether the user connects as the `playground` or `tutorial1` user they interact with a bash script that is either [2] or [3].

Structured Logging with Slog
> I also don't see something else I might want: a way to have a different "view" for certain log messages; maybe to switch between filtering/viewing particular ones, maybe to just have line-format be conditional based on the detected format.
Have a look at the following comment on an issue that might be similar to what you're thinking of:
https://github.com/tstack/lnav/issues/1065#issuecomment-1602...
> I guess I can sort of do this based on `module-field`? but I might want it lighter-weight/finer-grained than that.
Unfortunately, the "module-field" does not work for JSON logs at the moment. It's something I should really fix.
Ultimately, lnav has existed for almost two decades now and I use it every day. So, it's always seeing improvements. If you're having a problem with it, file an issue on github. I don't always get around quickly to fixing other folks feature requests / issues, but it tends to happen eventually.
Thanks.
