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.

Array Languages vs. the Curse of the Spreadsheet
It is a proper programming language.
For #1, there has been research on linting and automated semantic error or smell detection in Excel (e.g., https://github.com/ExceLint/ExceLint). Some features are live in Excel today!
For #2, Excel now supports Python.
I don't think you need to do any conversions, all of the necessary information exists in the spreadsheet.

We are the Microsoft Excel product team. We build cool stuff like XLOOKUP, Sheet Views, and lambda in Excel. AMA!
With that in mind, has there been any talk of integrating something like ExcelLint as part of the core Excel product to help identify these errors and encourage a set or best practices amongst users?

Array Languages vs. the Curse of the Spreadsheet
This is what I love in Uiua[1]. That operators can be written as english words instead of unicode symbols. Makes it quite similar looking to functuinal point free code.

k on pdp11
you may also enjoy uiua (https://www.uiua.org/) which uses these alien glyphs but is even more alien because it's a concatenative language (stack oriented), like forth or postscript, but to make it even more alien it's written right to left. For example 1+2 is written "+ 1 2" (in forth it would be "1 2 +")
The language and the site are brilliant and I think worth 30m of your time skimming through and trying out the examples in the online editor / tutorial.

If you're fine with tacit array-oriented (ie APL-like): Uiua.

Vector database is not a separate database category
As a lover of array languages, I remember being excited to read a futurist article on vector processors and programming languages. It was written right before Wes McKinney worked on Pandas (the J programming language influenced him), and I thought J/APL or another array language was going to explode. J has Jd, in which J is fully integrated. This did not come to pass (yet). No matter, I still enjoy array languages anyway. There's a new array language, uiua[1], that is a mix of array and stack concepts with a good standard library including audio and graphics.

Uiua: A minimal stack-based, array-based language
Yeah
> The main language that inspired Uiua is BQN. While I had heard about APL before, BQN was my first real exposure to the power of the array paradigm. I think the language is an astounding feat of engineering. Marshall is both a genius and a great communicator.

Also, a week ago there were only two contributors to the project: 1000+ by kaikalii, and this single commit by Marshall:
