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.

Unit testing: What to use, and how?
A more minimalist approach is this tape module and the TAP protocol. https://www.npmjs.com/package/tape

Straight talk: Salary discussion thread
OK will do. Do you have any tips on finding a suitable project? Ideally I was hoping to to contribute to a piece of software that I actually use/know/like/want to improve. Given that, and my area of expertise, I had shortlisted Signal Desktop, and Tape.

Find component by display name when the component is stateless functional, with Enzyme
Reactjs I have the following components: // Hello.jsexport default (React) => ({name}) => { return ( Hello {name ? name : 'Stranger'}! )}// App.jsimport createHello from './Hello'export default (React) => () => { const Hello = createHello(React) const helloProps = { name: 'Jane' } return ( )}// index.jsimport React from 'react'import { render } from 'react-dom'import createApp from './App'const App = createApp(React)render( , document.getElementById('app')) And I want to set up a test to see if the App component contains one Hello component. I tried the following, using Tape and Enzyme: import createApp from './App'import React from 'react'import test from 'tape'import { shallow } from 'enzyme'test('App component test', (assert) => { const App = createApp(React) const wrapper = shallow() assert.equal(wrapper.find('Hello').length === 1, true)}) But the result was that the length property of the find result was equal to 0, when I was expecting it to be equal to 1. So, how do I find my Hello component? Answer link : https://codehunter.cc/a/reactjs/find-component-by-display-name-when-the-component-is-stateless-functional-with-enzyme

Tools for testing Functional Web Apps
For us at Begin and Architect, tape has been in use for several years. tape has a stable and straightforward API, routine maintenance updates, and outputs TAP, making it really versatile. While TAP is legible, it's not the most human-readable format. Fortunately, several TAP reporters can help display results for developers. Until recently, Begin's TAP reporter of choice was tap-spec. Sadly tap-spec wasn't kept up to date and npm began reporting vulnerabilities.

Chaijs.com just let their domain expire
I really enjoy Ava [1] or anything assert-tape-like [2]. "uvu" [3] is getting a lot of love lately, but it's very feature limited and much of it's touted advantages are at the detriment to feature set.

Jest is great for front-end (or full stack integration) testing, but I feel it's specialized for that use-case and doesn't always play nice with backend/middle-tier testing needs.

Release Radar • February 2024 Edition
The team at Electron have been faithfully shipping new releases almost every single month. I think they had Christmas off 🤔. This popular framework has developers writing cross-platform desktop applications using JavaScript, HTML and CSS. The latest update depreciates some process events, and added new modules, APIs, methods, and more. Read into all the changes in the Electron release notes. This month, Electron also introduced a new formal RFC process.

Design Systems with Web Components
So we talked a lot about the Atomic Design Principle, but you could just use that in any system and start creating. You could have Angular components, React Components, and Vue Components. But if you notice these don't easily work Everwhere. So the solution is to use Web Components because the modern browser can already understand these, and any Front-End framework can then utilize these components. You can use Electron for desktop (Slack, VSCode), PWA for both Android and iOS, and across all browsers Can I Use.

How I got Wayland, Vulkan, and hardware acceleration working with Figma on Fedora 39.
I'm noticing a significant boost in performance, crisper text, and better power savings. The only shortcoming is that the window which Figma will run on will lose its shadow. This is due to a technical limitation with frameless windows on Linux.

Building Apps with Tauri and Elixir
For the longest time, building desktop apps was a daunting task to web developers. That is, until technologies like Electron made creating these apps more approachable to a wider audience. Today, we’ve got a wide array of native applications built with solutions like Electron, Tauri, Capacitor, and many more. While these are great solutions, sometimes configuration can be tricky and the applications we create can become somewhat bloated in terms of memory usage.

Capturing at Speed of Thought
Turns out, there is an issue with the electron window not returning focus correctly on mac - https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/5495. The trick to solving is to treat quick capture as a screensaver. When closing, you hide it by setting the opacity to 0 and sending hide: command to the first responder.
