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.

Racket: The Lisp for the Modern Day
Looks like you're already in Emacs. I strongly recommend racket-mode as mentioned in another thread.
With regard to prototyping GUI's I'd suggest taking a look at https://github.com/mfelleisen/7GUI. https://github.com/Bogdanp/racket-gui-easy could also be a good place to start.
With regard to Racket more generally, I'm probably not the best person to ask since I had a very high friction start where I just banged my head against the wall until things made sense.
- Where to keep state for racket/gui app?
-
What programming language is good to make GUI's
Some simple examples using the Racket gui toolkit can be found at https://github.com/mfelleisen/7GUI

If you had to pick a Scheme to write a standalone application which would you choose?
Racket has a nice gui that works across windows, Linux and MacOS, See https://github.com/mfelleisen/7GUI

Best implementation for standalone + browser executable?
Wow, thanks a lot! I hit a snag running cyclone's repl on a M1 Mac, but found the fix here: https://github.com/justinethier/cyclone/issues/464

How to Detect a Cycle in a Linked List
When developing Cyclone Scheme I discovered the latest R7RS Scheme language specification requires that several procedures handle circular lists.
-
Which Scheme for compiling C to use in WASM?
Cyclone Scheme transpiles to C and can run in the browser using WASM.
-
Tail Call Optimization by Base Jumping off the Stack
Over the years various solutions have been developed to meet this requirement such as trampolines, goto's, compiler optimizations, etc. One of the most unusual was proposed by Henry Baker in his paper CONS Should Not CONS Its Arguments, Part II: Cheney on the M.T.A. (PDF).

Oldest Scheme Implementations
And its successor, Cyclone, began in 2014, and is actively developed.

If you had to pick a Scheme to write a standalone application which would you choose?
Gambit, and consequently Gerbil, are not very mature and still need a bit more of a environment. Stklos could also be interesting, as well as Cyclone.
