  The 2024 Stack Overflow Developer Survey asked participants to identify tools they used this year and those they plan to use next year. A tool is deemed “admired” if developers who used it this year intend to continue using it next year.

  By dividing the `used %` by the `admired %`, we can calculate an “underrated score.” I've compiled a list using this method, filtering for tools admired by >70%, and used by <10% of developers. I think there may be some hidden gems here!

  Nice, but it could have a brief description (two or three words) of what they are. How can I give a chance to "Phoenix" or "Ruff" if I don't even know how to search on google about them...
