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.

Which not so well known Python packages do you like to use on a regular basis and why?
I always use Taskipy https://github.com/illBeRoy/taskipy to run tasks in my applications, works really well with Poetry so when I am running my dev Flask/FastAPI server and Celery or running my tests or format my code it's all there.

No-op statements syntactically valid only since Python X.Y
```
In legacy (don't break anything) mode, there's still no reason to not switch. I export `requirements.txt` with poetry just for pip legacy reasons and it works great. If I just update some scripts, I could avoid it. It's running all the time in CI, it's exercised quite a bit.
What's wrong with just using pip and requirements.txt? There's no dev section. In addition, bumping deps is not the same. I have [a blog post](https://squarism.com/2021/09/10/sciencing-out-updates/) explaining semver updates to a python dev.
_my strong assertion:_ Python and Go missed it from the start. That's why it is so confusing. There's no other choice in Rust but Cargo. Rust devs are never confused on how to add a package, semver it. The answer is always Cargo. It's in the tutorial. It's in the book. It's in the culture.
I think I've heard that pip might support the pyproject spec, poetry already does. If you want scripts like npm, you can have that too with [taskipy](https://github.com/illBeRoy/taskipy). You don't have to.

CLI tools hidden in the Python standard library
The cli tool [fire](https://github.com/google/python-fire/blob/master/docs/guide...) has a nifty feature where it can generate a cli for any file for you.
So random and math are somewhat usable that way
$ python -m fire random uniform 0 1

Build CLI blazingly fast with python-fire 🔥
With python-fire you can use either function or class to create your subcommands. But I find working with classes more intuitive and manageable. Our first command is going to be a sub-command that shows us the UTC time.

I am sick of writing argparse boilerplate code, so I made "duckargs" to do it for me
Have you checked out fire? Personally, I think it's a really elegant solution to turning a callable object into command line. Plus, the chaining function calls feature lets you build some pretty complex command line patterns likes you never seen with other frameworks. Definitely worth giving it a try!

Best way to get data into python scripts
I highly recommend checking out fire for adding a CLI quickly to little utility scripts that aren't going to be published to the world but just for you.

What are your coolest tools for one-liners ?
python fire autogenerates CLI wrappers for python modules, which really synergizes with method-chaining APIs like pandas.

What packages replaced standard library modules in your workflow?
also, while we're on the subject, fire may not be the same kind of workhorse as argparse or click, but for really simple stuff it's pretty awesome

Eclipse: python-fire inspired library to simplify creating CLIs in Go, on top of Cobra
I'm relatively new to Go (coming from Python) so I haven't been using Cobra (or Go, for that matter) for long but it's clearly very polished -- only friction I was experiencing with it is there's a lot of boilerplate to creating commands and subcommands, that IMO (idea as proven by python-fire) can be naturally (better) expressed as types / fields / methods that are already built into the language.
What are some alternatives?
Toolz - A functional standard library for Python.
click - Python composable command line interface toolkit
wheezy.template - A lightweight template library.
typer - Typer, build great CLIs. Easy to code. Based on Python type hints.
yamlpath - YAML/JSON/EYAML/Compatible get/set/merge/validate/scan/convert/diff processors using powerful, intuitive, command-line friendly syntax.
Gooey - Turn (almost) any Python command line program into a full GUI application with one line
plumbum - Plumbum: Shell Combinators
PyInquirer - A Python module for common interactive command line user interfaces
zpy - Zsh helpers for Python venvs, with uv or pip-tools
