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.

Vercel claiming credit for making Webpack
At the time we were listing projects like Hyper and Micro alongside our other better known ones. As those projects became less of a focus, I believe someone with good intentions in the team wanted to prioritize the ones we contribute to instead that are relevant to our frontend focus, and not confuse our audience.

🤔 Should I Use Gatsby or Next.js For My Next Project?
What is great about Next.js is the ability to create API Routes. This could be really useful in a lot of situations, especially if you have a sprawling REST API endpoint and want a minimal set of data returned from it, you could massage that data down to only the content you need on your frontend. In fact, Next.js has it's own express-like server-side framework called Micro.
- Confused about api routes and NEXT backend

Use nextjs purely as backend ;
That is an option. You could also opt to use the server micro that powers nextjs alone by itself https://github.com/vercel/micro , assuming you don't need to produce a frontend for it. I generally don't use nextjs api routes so I'm not sure what you'd lose/gain with that route though.

FaaS on Kubernetes: From AWS Lambda & API Gateway To Knative & Kong API Gateway
The function runtime is based on a fast, and lightweight HTTP library called micro. To use kazi, you first have to install it via npm. Run the command npm i -g @kazi-faas/cli to install it.

Goodbye Dockerfiles: Build Secure & Optimised Node.js Container Images with Cloud Native Buildpacks
You're going to build your first image using the pack CLI. Go to buildpacks.io/docs/tools/pack and follow the instruction for your OS to install it. You're going to create and deploy a Node.js web app that will return a string. Run the command below to create the project and install micro (an HTTP library for building microservices)

Use nextjs purely as backend?
I don't see what benefit it brings. You can use micro directly and save yourself from installing megabytes of dependencies. Next JS API routes are handled via micro.

Deploy the tiniest nodejs server in repl.it
The wonderful team of vercel has exactly what we need to run this thing, it is package called micro. You can install it using the menu on the side bar. Click on the little icon that looks like a box, and then search for micro. Select the package and click the plus sign.

Make microservices look like monoliths
My goto for this kind of task is moleculer: https://moleculer.services/
Fast, battle tested, vue2-like approach, great documentation, good community. The automatic indipendent-scalability as an option is usually the main selling point of these solutions, but honestly I think the real pro is the "composition" approach, which is essential if you want to keep a clean and well-organized codebase. On this regard, I found moleculer pretty great even for large teams.

if Nodejs does not meant for CPU intensive tasks so I think it's better to avoid it from the beginning
I almost can’t believe I haven’t seen it mentioned here before, but adding Moleculer into your node project (if it’s clustered/k8s’d) will literally solve many single threaded problems, not to mention tons of other scalability issues. https://moleculer.services/

Been playing with moleculerjs recently, and just finished my first package: a service that allows you to use any node API framework as a moleculer gateway.
Moleculer already provides an in-house http gateway, but what if you want to use an existing API, and how to maintain decoupled code when creating your gateway? This package solves both. You can create your API, passing in any services you require as dependencies. You can then bind your API to moleculer using the moleculer-universal-gateway.

Don’t start with microservices – monoliths are your friend
But there's more to the topic of microservices. Seems like all the conversation focuses on deployment pain. You can build a service with something like Akka or Moleculer where the modules act independently and have some message passing and resilience from each other, but they can still all live in one codebase, one process, and deployed as one unit. It works fine and isn't painful at all. And maybe down the line you decide to split the thing up into multiple processes and multiple deployment units, and that's an easy refactor because the modules are already somewhat separated.
