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.

X.org on NetBSD – The State of Things
> What I mostly meant was that for people who prefer to use X11, that will probably remain viable for a long time, without any Wayland.
Or, if necessary, with just a tiny bit of Wayland; XWayland rootful mode lets you run a full X stack with Wayland as little more than a shim to the graphics driver. As a worked example, Puppy Linux implemented this: https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/woof-CE/pull/2265
- The Joy of Small Projects
- Xfce can be run on Wayland by simply swapping out the xfwm Window Manager for a Wayland Compositor
- Build Puppy Linux on GitHub
- Run Linux entirely from RAM, but on shutdown write the entire thing to disk, then on bootup again load everything from disk and run it in RAM again. Is this possible?

The Joy of Small Projects
For me, the best small side projects involve some kind of porting (between protocols, OSs or CPUs), contribution of a fix for a visible but mysterious bug, or revival of codebases in bad shape, especially when they're unfamiliar and written by others. You can learn a lot from a software engineering culture that's different from yours or small, feasible projects that allow you to understand the bits and bytes of something unfamiliar in a fun and useful way. These projects are great to develop flexibility and general problem solving intuition. And getting familiar with the 20% of an idea, a protocol, a programming language, etc' that's used 80% of the time in real-world use cases, is often enough.
