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.

Roc – A fast, friendly, functional language
Carp - https://github.com/carp-lang/Carp - "A statically typed lisp, without a GC, for real-time applications." where it's "Ownership tracking enables a functional programming style while still using mutation of cache-friendly data structures under the hood".

Ask HN: Looking for statically typed, No-GC and compiled Lisp/scheme
Looking for a personal project so open-source would be great, but maturity/production readiness is not really a factor.
The only significant thing i can find so far is https://github.com/carp-lang/Carp.
Anything notable that i might have missed ?

Lisp in Space
Not CL, but there is ulisp (http://www.ulisp.com/) for microcontrollers, supposed to be really tiny, and there is Carp (https://github.com/carp-lang/Carp) which is without a GC so seems suitable for real-time stuff.

Yet nobody questions ABAP, Lua, Julia, Groovy or Scala, both of them are under Lisp in TIOBE Index

Emerging Rust GUI libraries in a WASM world
Everybody is trying to make a more user-friendly Rust. The problem is that it is not clear yet whether that's possible, and if it is, how it may look. I know Vale and have tried it, though it's extremely early to judge anything so far. It does have a much stronger theoretical background than V, but even the theory is not completely clear at this point.
There is also Carp by the way: https://github.com/carp-lang/Carp

A standalone zero-dependency Lisp for Linux
Have you made or plan to make any contributions to Mezzano (https://github.com/froggey/Mezzano) or are you mainly interested in seeing how far you can take this thing on your own?
- Ask HN: What are some of the most elegant codebases in your favorite language?
- Mezzano, an operating system written in Common Lisp

Why Lisp?
>> except building compilers and OSes
SBCL is written in Lisp, yes? Except the runtime, which is C + asm.
I've heard people wrote some OSes in the past, like Genera. Or if you prefer recent attempt, try https://github.com/froggey/Mezzano. Never tried it, though.

Help needed - new programming language
No need to.
-
Dynamic, JIT-compiled language for systems programming?
Not at all. See mezzano for a notable recent example of an OS written entirely in a dynamic language.

What help is needed for Lisp community in order to make Lisp more popular?
So..
"Why do you want to make Lisp more popular? If you were sucessful, what would be different in the world, and why is that desirable to you?"
Normally at this point I'd listen to the response, and ask more questions based on that. That would wind up with a very, very deep thread, so I'll break a cardinal rule and pre-guess at some answers.
This kind of question comes up pretty frequently. In many cases, I suspect the motivation behind the question is "Wow! Here's this cool tool I've discovered. I want to make something really useful with it. I want to do it as part of a community effort; share my excitement with others, share in their excitement, and know that what I'm making is useful because others find it desirable and are excited by it." The field could be cooking, sports, old machine tools, tiny homes, or demo scene. Its the fundemental driver for most content on HN, YouTube, Instructables, and such. It is a Good Thing.
If that is your motivator, then my suggestion is to find something that bugs you and fix it. You've already decided you're only interested in code, not other aspects. You said you preferred vim, but the emacs ecosystem has a very rich set of sharp edges that need filing off, and a rich set of tools with which to attack them.
One example: even after 50 years there's no open IDE which allows you to easily globally rename a Lisp identifier. I don't know about LispWorks or other proprietary environments, but you can't in emacs or vim do a right-click on "foo" in "(defun foo ()...)" and select a command which automatically renames it in all invocations. [Queue lots of "but you can..." replies here.] I don't think vim is up to the task of doing this internally. It would be possible in emacs; but would require a huge effort with lots of help from other people. If you emerged alive from that rabbit warren you'd join the company of Certified "How Hard Could it Be?" Mad Scientists such as Dr. "I just want to draw molecules" Meister [1] and "Wouldn't an OS in Lisp be Cool" Froggey [2].

Emacs should become a Wayland compositor
You might want to look at Mezzano which is an operation system written in Common Lisp https://github.com/froggey/Mezzano
I haven’t tried it since moving to M1/ARM, but it is cool.
