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.

GitHub Codespaces vs. Gitpod: Choosing the Best Online Code Editor
Nix is <3. Here's a template where you can take it for a spin on Gitpod.
https://github.com/gitpod-io/template-nix
Personally I run all my software via nix, in a monorepo with a layout similar to google3, that generates/serves docker images via https://github.com/google/nixery, supports x64/m1, local development, codespaces and gitpod.
- GitHub.Dev is now available on any GitHub repo

Choices for online Ocaml?
👋Geoff here from Gitpod. Created something special for the OCaml community moments ago - https://github.com/gitpod-io/template-ocaml. If you prefer nix then adjust https://github.com/gitpod-io/template-nix. Enjoy 🧡

Will Nix Overtake Docker
> For context, I'm referencing our (legacy) base image for projects on Replit: Polygott (https://github.com/replit/polygott/).
May I ask why you didn't use something like Ansible to build such a complex image? With appropriate package version pinning (which it's the real crux here) it should work well enough to get a reproducible build.
I understand it would already have been something different from a pure Dockerfile so it's not that fair to compare buuut...

Python/Javascript Shell in a website
Look into how repl.it built their platform, especially their polygott Docker image. You can find out plenty of information about how these systems are built if you delve deeper into their ecosystem.

Choices for online Ocaml?
Repl.it has an in-progress OCaml repl option sort of hidden away because it's "WIP"; and by WIP I mean it works for editing and saving is basically broken otherwise and has been for a few years (according to Sys.ocaml_version it's using OCaml 4.05 from 2017) because of a claim of focusing on core features instead of more languages. Though that didn't stop them from adding other languages since, including adding ReasonML (via NodeJS and BuckleScript) since then, so the argument is bullshit and they'll probably never get it working.

Does repl.it instantiate new containers for every repl?
If you look at the repo under the gen directory you’ll see the Dockerfile template. It builds on the Ubuntu base image (line 6 FROM Ubuntu...) which means you will get a bash shell (default login shell) in each container built from it.

How Replit used legal threats to kill an intern's open-source project
You said the spat was about him "allegedly open sourcing their project". How could he do that when it was already open source (at https://github.com/replit/polygott)?

Replit used legal threats to kill my open-source project
Slightly off-topic - what is a secure way to run arbitrary code in arbitrary languages in a server? I know replit's polygott docker container allows it.
