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".

Setting up lynx

- Lynx vs Links
- Any modern terminal browser?

yeah I m not paying for all of that
I liked w3m a lot back when I had a job were rando browsing was discouraged. https://github.com/tats/w3m

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

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: ScaleSocket – Turn any script into a multiplayer WebSocket server
It's similar to running netcat in server mode, wrapping a script. It's even closer to doing that using websocat [1], whereby one does not have to do the websocket header juggling.
The main difference is that while netcat or websocat will spawn a new process for each connecting client, ScaleSocket has a concept of rooms (channels). For a room, a process is spawned once only. All clients connecting to the same room are routed to the same process. This is not straight forward to do using the forementioned tools.
There's a small comparison page [2] where I have mentioned some alternative tools.

Ask HN: What was the best software that you used during 2022?
one combination I came to really love this year is babashka (https://github.com/babashka/babashka) + websocat (https://github.com/vi/websocat). I wrote about a method of live web programming with this pair at https://github.com/whacked/cow/blob/main/a%20technique%20for...
babashka isn't strictly necessary; you can also pipe plain text, but pushing hiccup expressions to the browser DOM from the REPL with instant feedback has opened a new world of interactive programming for me.

Realtime web-based MUD monitoring and control in tintin++ and mudlet
No... the core of it is a django instance in the cloud with a Vue front end (what you're seeing in the screen shot). To push data in, the client connects to a websocket (using https://github.com/vi/websocat) and push key/value pairs in. I'm not in the middle of gameplay at all.

There's really nothing to this. I just have to provide the bus name and an optional pattern. Now using websocat, I get output like this:

Exploring the methods of looking into Ethereum’s transaction pool
Subscriptions is real-time streaming of data from server to client through WebSocket. You will need a constantly active connection to stream such events. You cannot use curl for this and have to use a WebSocket client like websocat if you want to access it via command line. Once executed, a stream of pending transaction IDs will start flowing in.
