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.

Ask HN: Is There a Zapier for APIs?
Actually, you might want to check out https://tailcall.run (Disclaimer: I am the core maintainer of the project)
It's an open-source API Orchestrator, in other words "a Zapier for APIs". If you find it interesting, hit our discord channel to learn more about it.

The Ur Programming Language Family
Tailcall is building something similar in that regard. The idea is to allow developers to specify their orchestration requirements using a DSL and then behind the scenes generate an ultra high performance backend for GraphQL. The query could span over REST, GRPC and other GraphQL services. Check it out — https://github.com/tailcallhq/tailcall

Ask HN: Would anyone recommend GraphQL over REST for teams just starting up?
GraphQL will save you from embarrassing errors on the client and improve performance for sure. My recommendation is — Build API and expose them using REST or GRPC. Use a solution like https://tailcall.run/ to create a GraphQL facade on top of it for your clients to consume.

layer by hand? Have you tried https://github.com/tailcallhq/tailcall
With tailcall, you can quickly bootstrap a GraphQL service on top of existing APIs. I would love to collaborate on this and help you on board.

Ask HN: GraphQL in 2024
Hi, I am the founder of https://tailcall.run. I have personally built and used GraphQL at a massive scale (100M rpm, 1K APIs, 100s services). I believe have a fair understanding of the problem it solves, as well as its pitfalls. We built Tailcall because we realized that manually writing a GraphQL service is inefficient and doesn't scale well. Our main learning was that APIs should be built and operated independently, regardless of how they are consumed.
GraphQL should also be considered as a client-side abstraction and architecturally positioned closer to the client than to the server. In this context, the client could be a mobile app, a website, or even another service querying data from an external or internal data source. As a client-side abstraction, the responsibility of maintenance should lie with the consumer of the APIs, not the producer. All these learnings have helped us architect Tailcall as it is today. Tailcall provides a DSL that allows consumers of the API to configure how they would want the schema to look. Behind the scenes, Tailcall automatically orchestrates the APIs to generate a unified graphQL endpoint. Once configured it can be deployed on a typical server, but semantically still being a piece of the client/API Consumer.
This way of looking at graphQL considers federation as an anti-pattern. GraphQL Federation pushes graphQL towards the server side or more specifically the API producer. This new layer of abstraction also adds significant levels of slowness & complexity in architecture. We started with the problem of clients consuming APIs and the need to compose them, but ended up using a solution that's composing "Graphs". That's not necessarily wrong, but it feels like an overkill for the core problem the organization starts with which is — API Composition.
However, we understand that this might not be relatable for smaller organizations and various others who have been working with GraphQL for a long or probably have a different take on it. I would love to hear your thoughts!
Some of the questions we had were —
Do you prefer to handwrite a graphQL API or, use an open-source solution that could auto-generate a GraphQL endpoint on top of your existing API?
What are your thoughts on GraphQL in general — like, hate, neutral? Does it solve a big problem in your company? Have you tried TRPC as an alternative?
Do you think federation is the future? Based on what you learned, do you think Tailcall is a good design?
