Unless it's rigidly self-hosted compiler for your own language, I have a feeling it still depends on other projects a lot.

One of it is, in fact, a static document, basically just a very large README.md file chock full of information. It could be a book.

I don't think projects comparable to books can be at the same time comparable to software

I thought we were discussing GitHub stars' correlation (or lack thereof) to donations. I don't see how usefulness for many people should be limited to software only. Anyway, I've said what I wanted to say.
