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: What was the best software that you used during 2022?
nvi2 [0]: I got to like the simplicity of nvi when installing Void Linux on my laptop, but it had some annoying bugs that made me switch to nvi2. In general, it feels like `good' software; powerful enough by virtue of being a 1:1 vi clone with a few crucial improvements (multibyte, multi-undo, etc.), but simple enough to hack on if I miss some feature. Though no autocomplete means it's not suitable for more verbose languages, like Java.
QuickJS [1]: qjscalc is my go-to scientific calculator, and qjs my go-to JavaScript implementation for simple programs. The C interface is very nice to use, too. All in all, it feels very much like a "complete" engine, even if not quite as fast as one with JIT.
w3m [2]: Somewhat lacking as a web browser, but a very good pager. Would take it over less any day. Also has the best table display of any text-mode browser, supports inline images, and is rather extensible.
Wine [3]: It's gotten so good that I no longer have to dual boot Windows. Still not perfect, but definitely on my list of "good software".

w3m rocks
> I've been noodling about the implementation of adding functionality to w3m and lynx so there is a separate fetch-page func but report a different User-Agent header (eg, "Mozilla"). I've encountered many pages that don't allow access until I change the "lynx-*" header (bastards).
Wouldn't this feature suffice? https://github.com/tats/w3m/blob/master/doc/README.siteconf

Maintained version of w3m?

Effectively reading and studying an open source project before using it in my project.
But the problem is that a lot of the code isn't commented to explain what they're doing and there isn't a lot of documentation online to use the software effectively. (In order to not make my question vague, I'm trying to build a front end Gtk GUI to w3m. But I don't need explanation to the code or steps to do this. even though I didn't understand it and I don't know the steps I need. What I'm looking for is a method to effectively study the code of an open source project that didn't take into consideration that you'll study it, therefor they didn't document well the structure of their codebase and how the project was build and the different parts of making it).

Show HN: Happy Pi day with this PWA to cut 100k Pi digits offline
It uses service workers to cache static files, by the time it opens up you already free to be offline, try toggle network switch to verify.
It has download link at bottom of the about page ([accdoo.app/about]) which you could then self host it by dropping into any static hosting services.
btw, the Pi feature was by-product from the original App but I won't expand here, if you'd like to learn more, please checkout its two Show HN post (39115559 and 39138957) previously.

New QuickJS Release
There is a readme on the project's main page: https://bellard.org/quickjs/
The newsworthy bit here is that the activity seemed to have stalled for year or two and now Fabrice pushed a few fixes and made a new release.

GitHub
Just to demonstrate GitHub repositories do not necessarily reflect upon a programmers' body of work, Fabrice Bellard has one (1) repository published on GitHub, quickjs. Compare the list of work on Bellard's home page https://bellard.org/.

WinterJS
> I am still confused, it's a JavaScript runtime intended to be deployed to JavaScript/Wasm runtimes?
Seemingly.
> Why does a JavaScript runtime need a JavaScript runtime?
Because if you want to create a Service Worker server for CloudFlare Workers and other JavaScript/Wasm runtimes, that's the only option for doing that AFAIK.
FWIW, this isn't a new idea. For example, Figma uses QuickJS (https://bellard.org/quickjs/) for their plug-in runtime: https://www.figma.com/blog/an-update-on-plugin-security/
