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.

MuPDF WASM Viewer Demo
I’m curious, have you tried SumatraPDF (uses muPDF under the hood)?

SumatraPDF Reader
Do you mind reporting those issues either to SumatraPDF at https://github.com/sumatrapdfreader/sumatrapdf/issues or directly to MuPDF at https://bugs.ghostscript.com/ if it also has the same issue? Thank you!
There are many wonderfully weird PDFs and epubs out there, but we do our best to fix issues. :)

FWIW, https://github.com/sumatrapdfreader/sumatrapdf/issues/1249 ("Support form filling for at least 1040 irs form") has a comment saying "MuPDF-GL has the capability to edit fields and save the PDF" of a 1040.
I have just learned the Firefox 93 added support XFA - https://techdows.com/2021/10/open-xfa-pdfs-in-firefox.html .
So it would appear there are free software solutions to XFA forms.
Just because something doesn't seem far-fetched to you, doesn't mean most people will regard it as far-fetched.
Many people all sorts of "sectarian objections" - far more than there are SovCits or other tax protesters. Stallman has never come across as a tax protester. Ergo, I think it's far-fetched that "sectarian objections" is strongly associated with tax protests.
Further, at https://stallman.org/archives/2017-may-aug.html we can read Stallman opinine that we need to "return to the "bad old days", when Americans in general could have a decent life, not penury; when the US could afford to build what the public needed instead of privatizing everything with a toll" by making taxation more progressive. At https://stallman.org/archives/2011-jan-apr.html we read he supports "The Fairness in Taxation Act [which] would raise taxes to 45% on incomes over a million dollars a year."

a good pdf reader
If you are going to run something in wine, try sumatrapdf. It's FOSS but Windows only. (sadly, but runs great on wine)

YSK that Adobe Reader can remember the last page where you left off
Sumatra is Adobe free, free, and can remember the page you were on.

Firefox 106.0, See All New Features, Updates and Fixes
Sumatra PDF has always been my choice: minimal, lightweight, no bloat... just perfect!

Light Table

Looks like the project has been archived

A Source Code Path Visualizer
I think LightTable development stalled out when the original creator left the project in 2015. Likely the project was too ambitious and maybe ahead of its time. Or maybe Clojure was not the right language to build an IDE...

Ask HN: Best Dev Tool pitches of all time?
I think the closest we got to a closure of Light Table is this: https://chris-granger.com/2014/10/01/beyond-light-table/
Which includes:
> Light Table will continue to go on strong. We haven’t talked too much about it lately, but it’s used by tens of thousands of people and still growing. We use it every day to help us build Eve and thanks to the awesome people in the community that has sprung up around it, it gets better every week.
Judging by GitHub contribution data (https://github.com/LightTable/LightTable/graphs/contributors...), it seems there has only been 25 commits (from one author) since Sep 20, 2019.

Are there extensible environments in the manner of Emacs outside of text editors and developer tools generally?
Most IDEs nowadays are as extensible as Emacs is, but most people don't think of them as app platforms, they think of them as IDEs, so they don't bother craeting Email or IRC clients for their IDEs: - Racket's own DrRacket IDE is pretty extensible, although no one seems to try to extend it with apps like Magit, Org-Mode, Calc, or whatever other useful features that Emacs provides. It is theoretically possible, but it just hasn't happened yet. - LightTable is a powerful programming editor written and extensible in Clojure. - Gnome's Gedit can be scripted in Python.

Emacs on Graal
I think it would be better to create an Emacs Lisp interpreter in Clojure for the LightTable editor.

Cider 1.0
I'm no Bozhidar, but thought I'd share some links you might find interesting:
- https://github.com/LightTable/LightTable - Clojure editor made in Clojure, not sure if it's being maintained anymore, core authors moved on to a different project if I remember correctly.
- https://github.com/mogenslund/liquid - Clojure editor made in Clojure, fairly new and basic but has a pretty tight integration with Clojure (itself really) which makes it interesting and it can also be embedded into other applications (or embed your other applications into Liquid)
- https://github.com/Olical/conjure - My daily driver for Clojure development. Is not an editor by itself, but it's written in Clojure, and exposed to neovim as a vim plugin. Not only supports Clojure, but also Fennel, Janet and Racket so far. Pretty handy if you sometimes like to dive into Clojure-like languages that are not Clojure (or Racket).
