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.

Zig Roadmap 2024 [video]
> but they surely can't hope to compete with LLVM in terms of opimisation, can they?
This has been discussed more than once on Zig's discord server. Quoting Andrew and Matthew Lugg's discussion in #compiler-devel about pull 17892:
> mlugg: Shout-out to the people on Twitter and HN who are probably still saying "why would you try to compete with LLVM, LLVM is perfect and can do no wrong"
> andrewrk: worse, they're saying "LLVM is not great but it's the best mankind can achieve"
I think it's very appealing to have a project that focuses on fast build times and wants to seriously compete against LLVM in terms of the optimization pass pipeline, specially when you don't have a beefy computer. With that said, for the time being there are no optimizations made by Zig's own x86 backend (it neither does pass all behavior tests like it was pointed out in the talk, but it can build the Zig compiler itself and some other projects).
Cuik[1] is a project that was mentioned in the Q&A section which illustrates how a compiler can be fast and make optimised builds at the same time.

The-C-Programming-Language
What are some alternatives?
pocketlang - A lightweight, fast embeddable scripting language.
checkedc - Checked C is an extension to C that lets programmers write C code that is guaranteed by the compiler to be type-safe. The goal is to let people easily make their existing C code type-safe and eliminate entire classes of errors. Checked C does not address use-after-free errors. This repo has a wiki for Checked C, sample code, the specification, and test code.
ravi - Ravi is a dialect of Lua, featuring limited optional static typing, JIT and AOT compilers
