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.

Tree-shaking, the horticulturally misguided algorithm
A lazy chunked delivery strategy like used in the k8s stargz-snapshotter[0] project could be effective here, where it only pulls chunks as needed, but it would probably require wasm platform changes.

Show HN: depot.ai – easily embed ML / AI models in your Dockerfile
To optimize build speed, cache hits, and registry storage, we're building each image reproducibly and indexing the contents with eStargz[0]. The image is stored on Cloudflare R2, and served via a Cloudflare Worker. Everything is open source[1]!
Compared to alternatives like `git lfs clone` or downloading your model at runtime, embedding it with `COPY` produces layers that are cache-stable, with identical hash digests across rebuilds. This means they can be fully cached, even if your base image or source code changes.
And for Docker builders that enable eStargz, copying single files from the image will download only the requested files. eStargz can be enabled in a variety of image builders[2], and we’ve enabled it by default on Depot[3].
Here’s an announcement post with more details: https://depot.dev/blog/depot-ai.
We’d love to hear any feedback you may have!

A Hidden Gem: Two Ways to Improve AWS Fargate Container Launch Times
Seekable OCI (SOCI) is a technology open-sourced by AWS that enables containers to launch faster by lazily loading the container image. It’s usually not possible to fetch individual files from gzipped tar files. With SOCI, AWS borrowed some of the design principles from stargz-snapshotter, but took a different approach. A SOCI index is generated separately from the container image and is stored in the registry as an OCI Artifact and linked back to the container image by OCI Reference Types. This means that the container images do not need to be converted, image digests do not change, and image signatures remain valid.

Speeding up LXC container pull by up to 3x
This is interesting and seems general purpose. Not merely for container images.
There’s this option for OCI containers which I don’t pretend to understand: https://github.com/containerd/stargz-snapshotter
It is used by containerd and nerdctl. You do have to build the image with it. Images work in OCI compatible registry. By fetching most used files first container can be started before loading is finished. Or so I gather.

Optimizing Docker image size and why it matters
stargz is a gamechanger for startup time. You might not need to care about image size at all
kubernetes and podmand support it, and docker support is likely coming. It lazy loads the filesystem on start-up, making network requests for things that are needed and therefore can often start up large images very fast.

Tree-shaking, the horticulturally misguided algorithm
A microcosm of the wasm issue was captured in this thread about implementing a web based git in JavaScript from scratch vs. compiling libgit

The theory versus the practice of “static websites”
I think one big missing part still with static sites is how you host the CMS to edit it.
Correct me if I'm wrong but Decap CMS (previously Netlify CMS) runs in the browser and makes reads/edits via GitHub which can then trigger rebuilds and deploys, but it still needs a small server/proxy I think because CORS stops your browser communicating directly with the GitHub API. Netlify hosts a GitHub backend that proxies requests for you but now you're tied to Netlify.
GitLab and BitBucket will have the same issue I think: https://github.com/isomorphic-git/isomorphic-git#cors-suppor...
Is there a simple solution here with minimal configuration?

Nextjs and git
This article is an attempt to classify knowledge about using git in a nodejs environment. Particularly, this is going to tell about isomorphic-git library and how to implement it in web applications.

Trying to clone a repository & send it to the frontend with Node & Express
I recently had to implement git cloning into a full stack project and I found a very useful library OP can use. isomorphic-git which would solve this issue and allow them to clone into a virtual filesystem which can help save speed, storage, and possibly keep it secure. Plus if the memfs package is used the OP can just dumb the JSON of the Volume object into the request.

5 Insane Features in my OS in the Browser!!! 🤯
I always wanted to make a command line interface/prompt but didn't actually start it till a few months ago. I decided to go with Xterm.js for the basic terminal interface along with a modified local-echo to add basic required functionality. Then I set about duplicating every command I could find. I was able to link the terminal directly to the file system so all commands show real information. You can run help to view all commands/aliases. I've also included things such as Git, Python & Wapm.io support.
What are some alternatives?
