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.

Coroutines make robot code easy for high schoolers
In practice we actually do; I had to simplify for the article. We have a few utilities like a `runUntilDone` that make simple sequences easier to write. Example: https://github.com/frc-2175/2023RobotCode/blob/main/src/lua/...
I suppose we could make more utilities for running coroutines "in parallel", but I haven't really felt the need. At that point we usually have to worry about exit conditions and it feels natural to just write a loop.

Coroutines make robot code easy for high schoolers
The reactivity and intuitive single-threaded concurrency makes it a really nice language for low-powered devices. Or robotics, which is a lot about reacting to sensor input.
It has a dedicated Arduino repo too[1].
In practice it's more of a research language by Francisco Sant’Anna, a professor at UERJ, Brazil, than a language with a big community around it. He's currently working on a new version caleld Dynamic Ceu, or dceu[2]
In the same paradigm there is the Blech[3] language, I believe originating from Bosch. Sadly, that project also has lost some steam.
