I can see that you haven't spent much time in the JavaScript ecosystem. And forget latest commit, if a JS project wasn't started in the last half year, it's already getting long in the tooth. After a half year, trendy devs will already start moving on to the next great framework and package manager.



Yes, that is my point, with so many options in JS frameworks, libs, etc, I normaly study Github activity before jumping in. Learning a new tool takes time and we cannot afford to waste it on dead-end projects.
