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.

Render mathematical expressions in Markdown On GitHub
You're being modest. This is clearly the winner, assuming GitHub is fine with the server cycles.
Running the JS client side means blocking the thread. You're either 1. delaying other JS from running, or 2. rendering late, shifting the layout – which is what GitHub has chosen. Refresh this issue and you'll see the jank from the flash of the raw equations: https://github.com/Leland/EquationTest/issues/1
Sending the rendered div's is a non-starter. Large document sizes delay domContentLoaded, slow down browsers, etc.
Your approach, then. On your page there are 178 SVGs. Total gzipped size is 490KB. SVGO[0] gets that down to 311KB – that's 1.74KB transferred per equation.

Ask HN: Tell us about your project that's not done yet but you want feedback on
KeenWrite is my free, open-source, cross-platform desktop Markdown editor that can produce beautifully typeset PDFs. I started working on it years ago to help write a novel that has a complex timeline and I couldn't find a text editor that would allow me to integrate a character sheet with the story itself.

Here's what I mean by using variables directly:

CommonMark doesn't propose a standard for bibliographic references. Would anyone find the editor more appealing if it had cross-references and citations?

Documentation as Code for Cloud Using PlantUML
My cross-platform desktop text editor, KeenWrite, allows users to define variables in an external YAML file. The editor calls out to Kroki[1] to convert text-based diagrams to SVG. The diagrams can reference variables and are rendered using EchoSVG[2].
KeenWrite[3] can produce PDF documentation from Markdown documents that has PlantUML diagrams with elements stored in an external, machine-readable file. Here are screenshots showing variables on the left, diagram text in the middle, and a real-time render on the right:

KeenWrite supports all diagrams offered by Kroki, which includes "diagram-plantuml".

Interactive CommonMark Tutorial
Although not interactive, I've created a video series that shows advanced usage of Markdown. Namely R, external variables, diagrams, math, annotations, and a different approach to metadata:
* https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLB-WIt1cZYLm1MMx2FBG9...
Tutorial 4 shows basic Markdown:

The top-right of each video shows keyboard and mouse clicks to help follow along.[1] My desktop text editor, KeenWrite[2], is used in the tutorials.

EchoSVG: SVG rasterizer library supporting level 4 selectors (Apache 2)
I didn't create the fork, nor am I affiliated with the project. I use it in my text editor, KeenWrite to rasterize SVG.

Millions of dollars in time wasted making papers fit journal guidelines
KeenWrite Themes[1] are instructions that tell ConTeXt how to typeset XHTML documents (content) into PDF files (presentation). I made a tutorial that shows how my FOSS desktop text editor, KeenWrite[3], allows users to write in Markdown to typeset a document against a particular theme.
Before it can be used for scientific papers, it needs cross-references, which, unfortunately, aren't part of the CommonMark specification.
I posit that the vast majority of LaTeX users don't grok how to separate content from presentation. When I asked a question on TeX.SE about how to adjust the line spacing between enumerated items (spanning a couple dozen enumerated lists), the vast majority of people voted for the answer of using `\itemsep0em` to tweak each list ... individually.[4] The correct answer, IMO, is to fix the problem globally, and not waste time tweaking individual lists.
