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.

Ace, CodeMirror, and Monaco: A Comparison of the Code Editors You Use in Browser
We had to handroll our own OT implementation inhouse (based on https://github.com/ottypes/text-unicode) since we had built the system for it already. I suspect we would've used or forked CodeMirror's collab package if we were starting today.
Also huge fan of yjs, but the implementation is not compatible with codemirror 6, only version 5 (AFAIK)

Accidentally quadratic: When Python is faster than C++
Well said.
I've had a lot of conversations with javascript engineers over the years who've argued to me that well tuned JS will be nearly as fast as the equivalent C code. I've written plenty of little toy benchmarks over the years, and in my experience they're partly right. Well written JS code in V8 can certainly run fast - sometimes around half the speed of C code. But a massive performance gap opens up when you use nontrivial data structures. Nested fields, non-uniform arrays, trees, and so on will all cripple javascript's performance when compared to C's equivalent of simply embedding nested structs. If you couple clean C data structures with allocation-free hot paths from arenas, the performance of C will easily hit 10-20x the performance of the equivalent JS code.
From memory my plain text based operational transform code does ~800k transforms / second in javascript. The equivalent C code does 20M/second. The C implementation is about twice as many lines of code as the JS version though.

How and why do we bundle zx?
At first we wanted to just get rid of all the helper utilities. Keep only the kernel, but this would mean a loss of backward compatibility. We needed some efficient code processing instead with recomposition and tree-shaking. We needed a bundler. But which one? Our testing approach relies on targets, not sources. We rebuilt the project frequently, speed was critical requirement. In essence, we chose a solution from a couple of among all available alternatives: esbuild and parcel. Esbuild won. Specifically in our case, it proved to be more productive and customizable.

Use Notion as your CMS along with Next.js
During my search for deploying Lambdas via GitHub actions, I came across a tutorial that utilized ncc for converting TypeScript and bundling. While ncc is effective, I discovered esbuild, which proved to be significantly faster and perfectly suited to my requirements.

Build a Vite 5 backend integration with Flask
Unlike Webpack, the Vite DevServer only compiles files when they are requested. It leverages ES module imports, which allow JS files to import other files without needing to bundle them together during development. When one file changes, only that file needs to be re-compiled, and the rest can remain unchanged. Project files are compiled with Rollup.js. Third-party dependencies in node_modules are pre-compiled using the ultra-fast esbuild bundler for maximum speed, and they are cached until the dependency version changes. Vite also provides a client script for hot module reloading.

How to run TypeScript natively in Node.js with TSX
TSX is the newest and most improved version of our ts-node, using ESBuild to transpile TS files to JS very quickly. The most interesting part is that TSX was developed to be a complete replacement for Node, so you can actually use TSX as a TypeScript REPL, if you install it globally with npm i -g tsx, just run tsx in your terminal and you can write TSX natively. But what's even cooler is that you can load TSX for all TypeScript files using --loader tsx when you run your file. For example, let's say we have this file called index.ts:
