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.

Is it feasible that the developers of RiF and other leading third party apps collaborate to create a new Reddit alternative from ground up? With the loyal userbases, that'd boost the early phases gaining a userbase.
Reddit was originally a Lisp project. Aaron Swartz created web.py for it's initial rewrite. After they were acquired by Conde Nast, it was rewritten again.

General purpose code to set and read global variables over WiFi with a web browser
I used two processes: one process running a python script to read the values from a PMS5003 (particulate matter) sensor and write them to shared memory ('/dev/shm/pms5003'), the second process running web.py to display the shared memory values on the browser...

Python package name conventions
Is there a package naming convention for Python like Java's com.company.actualpackage? Most of the time I see simple, potentially colliding package names like "web".

How Python web frameworks, WSGI and CGI fit together
How are WSGI, CGI, and the frameworks all connected? What do I need to know, install, and do if I want to run a web framework (say web.py or CherryPy) on my basic CGI configuration? How to install WSGI support?

How did you make your first income?
I first made money professionally using Django in February of 2006 when I evaluated it for use at NASA. We ended up going with another Python web framework called web.py, created by the late Aaron Schwartz that for a while was the backend of Reddit.

Epoll: The API that powers the modern internet (2022)
I am not expert in these but I thought Tornado's ioloop was readable enough for me to learn more event loops. Mostly, it was being implemented in pure Python.

(Had to be in 4.5 because the newer versions 5.x and 6.x, it's switched to Python's stdlib asyncio)

Tornado web server/framework
I am a bit confused, Tornado is web server like a apache http server, or a framework like django, or both?
- Ask HN: What's the most elegant piece of code you've seen?

In your experience, what is the best backend framework for working with websockets?
For Python, I use Tornado.

How to work with an RPC WebSocket Server
I'm writing a Node app that talks to a server that uses Tornado, a Python networking framework. The server uses WebSocket and structured JSON to expose RPCs, like sign_on called with the following message:

Ask HN: Web frameworks – which less popular framework are you using and why?
I've been using Python's Tornado (http://www.tornadoweb.org/) for years now.
Now on version 6, it's fast, well maintained, mature, and has good docs with readable code.
@bdarnell has done an excellent job maintaining it.
Here's one example:
Tornado supported async style co-routines before asyncio was a thing. Now it uses asyncio under the hood by default -- and it did so with an exceptionally smooth transition.

The Best Python Web Frameworks🤩
Tornado is another micro framework aimed at a specific use case: asynchronous networking applications. Tornado is well-suited for creating services that open a great many network connections and keep them alive that is, anything involving WebSockets or long polling. Moreover, It requires Python 3.5 or higher and drops Python 2 support entirely.
