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.

Ask HN: Interesting TUIs (text user interfaces), maybe forgotten ones?
I'm a maintainer of Ratatui (a rust TUI crate). Here's a few links
https://ratatui.rs/showcase/apps/
https://github.com/ratatui-org/awesome-ratatui
https://discord.com/channels/1070692720437383208/10729061831... (made with ratatui channel on our discord server)
We encourage our users to use https://github.com/charmbracelet/vhs to build out demos that look neat.
My particular favorite of the bunch (from a look and feel perspective) is https://github.com/zaghaghi/openapi-tui
Also, not ratatui, but worth a look: https://github.com/rothgar/awesome-tuis

How do people create those sleek looking demos for startups?
I'm a huge fan of charmbracelet's vhs:
https://github.com/charmbracelet/vhs
I have a gitlab CI job to update my demo .gif's every time I update my application; always ensures that things are up-to-date and provides gif/video recording that I've ran specific commands (perfect for auditors!)

Asciinema 3.0 will be rewritten in Rust
https://github.com/charmbracelet/vhs/blob/main/record.go#L22
I was looking at the code, and it seems like you could put a low value for this and it would do what you want.
I did not try it though

I used Charm VHS to generate the last gif you saw. Very cool tool that allows you create & easily edit CLI-related demos.

Iām not fully understanding what you are searching for, but take a look at https://github.com/charmbracelet/vhs. You can script shell commands and record them.

Share it on relevant subreddits and make a gif out how to use it with https://github.com/charmbracelet/vhs

The animations are GIFs generated by a really awesome project called vhs (https://github.com/charmbracelet/vhs). I usually went with 'gg' but the recommended 'G' feels much cleaner for me.

Lazydocker
This does remind me of ctop as well: https://github.com/bcicen/ctop
It also let's you look at containers, resource usage graphs, their logs and even do some actions through a TUI.

Found an amazingly handy terminal UI for both docker and docker-compose. Have actually just added the bin to my git repo with all my compose files. Great for a quick look at what is going on host machines.
My problem with ctop is, that it seems to show wrong memory usage data: https://github.com/bcicen/ctop/issues/314

Portainer Alternatives?

What do you think about Portainer?
You can use CTOP. It's like a lite portainer on CLI. You can check logs, stats, restart containers.

Docker 2.0 went from $11M to $135M in 2 years
> I tried portainer, awful UX experience and all good features are inside paid version.
This is interesting to me, because it doesn't quite match my experience - I've been using Portainer for around 3 years at this point and it's been pretty decent.
The worst issues that I've gotten is networking issues in some hybrid configurations with Docker Swarm (e.g. Portainer cannot reach the manager node of the cluster for a bit), or troubles configuring Traefik ingresses when managing Kubernetes (though I think the recent patch notes talked about improving the ingress section, so maybe the experience will get better with non-Nginx ingresses).
Other than that, it's been great for onboarding new people, illustrating the cluster state at a glance, easily operating with stacks and scaling/restarting services as needed, including pulling new images, viewing the logs or even connecting to containers through a web UI if need be. The webhook functionality in particular is really nice - you can just do a curl request against a given URL and that will pull the new container versions for the given image and do a redeploy, which works nicely with a variety of CI solutions.
When I last tried, initializing Nomad clusters with networking encryption was a bit less of a smooth experience (needing to essentially manage your own PKI) and the web UI felt more like a dashboard, instead of something that you could click around in, if you're a proponent of that workflow.
Rancher is probably better than both of those options, though there's a certain overhead in regards to running both that software and a full Kubernetes cluster. If Kubernetes feels like a good fit for a particular project and resources aren't an issue, definitely check it out! You can, of course, also have some success with lightweight clusters, like K3s: https://k3s.io/
I'll definitely agree that Lazydocker is a nice tool, but I wouldn't call it superior, just different (TUI vs GUI), their demo video is nice though: https://youtu.be/NICqQPxwJWw
It actually reminds me of ctop, which you might also want to check out, though it's not something that you'd manage clusters in, merely the individual containers on a node (which won't always be enough, same as Docker Compose isn't): https://github.com/bcicen/ctop
Regardless, for Kubernetes, I'm inclined to say that you'd enjoy k9s a bunch then, it has a similar TUI approach: https://k9scli.io/
