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.

Do-nothing scripting: the key to gradual automation (2019)
I found this a few years ago and was quite inspired by it. I then more recently found https://xcfile.dev/ which is a great way to implement these sort of scripts directly in the project's README.
- Go's template engine “templ” is convenient (it also works with TinyGo)

Show HN: A Markdown based alternative to package.json scripts and Makefiles
Looks nice!
I used XC for a bit, which does a similar thing, but have since reverted to make. The self-documenting nature of these tools can be very useful.

Runme – Interactive Runbooks Built with Markdown
Nice!
Xc is another doing a similar job
https://xcfile.dev/
- Self-documenting task runner, define tasks in the README

Can you help me make my makefile for go projects better or suggest an alternative?
For task management, I like to use xc instead of a Makefile. https://github.com/joerdav/xc

Show HN: A Markdown based alternative to package.json scripts and Makefiles
It’s great to see more tools taking advantage of the markdown syntax.
I’m the creator of Mask[0], a very similar tool built with Rust. I was originally inspired by Maid[1], which is an older take on this idea built with Node and no longer maintained I believe.
I see this is based on Node as well, and I appreciate that it currently has zero dependencies. Nice work!

Show HN: Xc – A Markdown Defined Task Runner
A few years back on my project Takeoff (https://github.com/takeoff-env/takeoff) - a tool for creating docker environments for local dev - I used maid (https://github.com/egoist/maid) for exactly this, using a markdown file as a task runner.
I liked the idea, although didn't go much further with the project.
What are some alternatives?
runme - DevOps Notebooks Built with Markdown
takeoff - A rapid development environment using docker for convenience.
taskflow - Create build pipelines in Go [Moved to: https://github.com/goyek/goyek]
gulp-app - Gulp app to automate tasks such as sass/scss compilation, images and scripts optimization, cache busting etc.
bash_kernel - A bash kernel for IPython
nano-staged - Tiny tool to run commands for modified, staged, and committed files in a GIT repository.
