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.

jluna, the modern Julia⭤C++ wrapper, is now optimized, fully-featured, and portable!
About a month ago, I announced jluna, a Julia <-> C++ wrapper I wrote from scratch. Unlike Cxx.jl, it is designed with Julia 1.7+ and modern C++20 in mind, and offers verbose documentation and a hand-written manual.

Interoperability in Julia
It is possible to call C++ into Julia with the package Cxx. To install the Cxx package, run the following command on the Julia REPL.

Does Julia support sending UDP multicasting?
I'm still on using 1.3 because Cxx only compiles with 1.3 https://github.com/JuliaInterop/Cxx.jl

Makie, a modern and fast plotting library for Julia
I don't use it personally, but RCall.jl[1] is the main R interop package in Julia. You could call libraries that have no equivalent in Julia using that and write your own analyses in Julia instead.

Making Python 100x faster with less than 100 lines of Rust
You can have your cake and eat it with the likes of
* PythonCall.jl - https://github.com/cjdoris/PythonCall.jl
* NodeCall.jl - https://github.com/sunoru/NodeCall.j
* RCall.jl - https://github.com/JuliaInterop/RCall.jl
I tend to use Julia for most things and then just dip into another language’s ecosystem if I can’t find something to do the job and it’s too complex to build myself

Interoperability in Julia
To inter-operate Julia with the R language, the RCall package is used. Run the following commands on the Julia REPL

I'm considering Rust, Go, or Julia for my next language and I'd like to hear your thoughts on these
If you need to bindings to your existing R packages then Julia is the way. Check out RCall.jl

Julia Update: Adoption Keeps Climbing; Is It a Python Challenger?
I worked with R and Python during the last 3 years but learning and dabbling with Julia since 0.6. Since the availability of [PyCall.jl] and [RCall.jl], the transition to Julia can already be easier for Python/R users.
I agree that most of the time data wrangling is super confortable in R due to the syntax flexibility exploited by the big packages (tidyverse/data.table/etc). At the same time, Julia and R share a bigger heritage from Lisp influence that with Python, because R is also a Lisp-ish language (see [Advanced R, Metaprogramming]). My main grip from the R ecosystem is not that most of the perfomance sensitive packages are written in C/C++/Fortran but are written so deeply interconnect with the R environment that porting them to Julia that provide also an easy and good interface to C/C++/Fortran (and more see [Julia Interop] repo) seems impossible for some of them.
I also think that Julia reach to broader scientific programming public than R, where it overlaps with Python sometimes but provides the Matlab/Octave public with an better alternative. I don't expected to see all the habits from those communities merge into Julia ecosystem. On the other side, I think that Julia bigger reach will avoid to fall into the "base" vs "tidyverse" vs "something else in-between" that R is now.
