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: Problems worth solving with a low-code back end?
Drag and Drop Visual Programming Language, the click of a button is interpreted as a source of an object stream. Think packet oriented programming, of reactive functional programming, or RxJs, or Node-RED.
To answer your question: you evaluate a low-code builder by the ease with which it can generate entire website applications. And by generate, I mean code generation as well, because you want these programs to emit beautiful code that is indistinguishable from hand made code. For code generation see yeoman, especially AST parsing and that nifty var function: https://yeoman.io/
And of course any one of the 5 above is a good test, but all 5 in harmony are better.
As to non-visual/tui tools, its bash. shells are low code tools take a look:

Get rid of Copy/Paste with Plop Js!
Plop js actually allows us to create the structures that we have previously created templates on cli via command. It does this in a very simple way. I can give hygen and yeoman as an alternative to plop js. I plan to write content about these libraries in the future.

Modern VS Code extension development tutorial: Building a secure extension
You use them to install Yeoman and the VS Code Extension Generator. This generator creates a frame (scaffold) for your extension so you don't have to write everything from scratch. If you elect to build your project using TypeScript (recommended for this blog), it's recommended that you install the TypeScript + Webpack Problem Matcher to make it easier to find and match coding errors.

Creating an OpenAI powered Writing Assistant for VS Code
Before we can start building the extension, we need to gather and prepare the necessary tools. In this case, the needed tools are node, git, yeoman and generator-code. For a newcomer like myself, this basic tutorial is perfect. I recommend going through it to learn the fundamentals.

How to create Syntax Highlighting for .txt file
If you wanted something much more advanced for some actual syntax highlighting and not just word highlighting, you can you use the built-in tools to create your own language syntax highlighter. You can define words, expressions, and grammar that gets formatted and colored and more across a specific type of file (you could enable it for .txt files if you really wanted to). You'd want to install Yeoman and the VScode Extension Generator.

FSF: Chrome’s JPEG XL killing shows how the web works under browser hegemony
If you are wondering about performance cost please take a look here, especially the last comment. https://github.com/yeoman/yeoman/issues/810 . With the advent of http2 and http3 the tcp connection is never reset and in http 3 the browser can always stop and resume the image loading without throwing the current progress away. FB, Google, Shopify, Reddit and many others are all using webp which doesn't support progressive rendering and I am sure at their scale they have at least million site visits with slow network and they are doing fine.

For achieving the widest adoption among Windows users, which commonly used scripting language would be best suited for a CLI program?%
Although I'm happy there is a way to bundle Node.js apps with support for pnpm, and for a modern-ish version of Node.js, it's somewhat slow in my experience to build locally. Interactivity doesn't have the greatest ecosystem there, especially with TypeScript. Best library I've found is Enquirer.

Using generators to improve developer productivity
In case you need to ask for user input, optionally you can use a prompt file. This is very useful to customize the output of the generator. Prompts are defined using a library named Enquirer.

NPM Vulnerability Discussion on Twitter
> I don't fully understand why packages like this are so popular.
It actually works like this: Author X develops `iseven`, `isodd`, etc. No one really downloads such packages. Author X then develops `importantPackage` which does do something useful developers out here download. Now `iseven`, `isodd` are downloaded alongside `importantPackage`.
My point is, we should recognize certain NPM authors as toxic, but I guess "freedom of speech/code" stops us from doing so. Example of such an author: https://github.com/jonschlinkert/

NPM – is-even, 160k weekly downloads
It's insanely funny to me that these packages exist while one of his bigger projects (https://github.com/enquirer/enquirer) lists the following reason under "why use it":

BREAKING!! NPM package ‘ua-parser-js’ with more than 7M weekly download is compromised
It's written by this guy, who shits out micro libraries by the hundreds. He moved the project to another user under the pretense that he was learning to program back then, but a lot of his stuff is similarly inconsequential micro libraries.
