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.

Lisp in Space
Dylan, which was originally created by Apple: https://opendylan.org/
- Dylan is an object-functional language originally created by Apple

Want to learn lisp?
OpenDylan kept being developed for a long time even after Apple lost interest, and they still do releases every once in a blue moon, but the community is tiny, and nobody is doing anything with Dylan (save for the compiler itself).

Why Lisp?
what is this fairly close resemblance? Parentheses?
There are a bunch of Lisp like languages without s-expression syntax: Lisp 2, Logo, MDL, RLISP, CLISP (not the CL implementation), Dylan, Racket with its new syntax (Racket2, Rhombus), Skill, ...
For example Dylan is based on Scheme & CLOS + a different syntax + some other influences. https://opendylan.org

Will Apple make up a new programming language for its rumored VR/AR headset, or use Swift?
If they go with another language, it had damn well better be Dylan. Apple already designed it and screwed up when they abandoned it back then (circa Java).

A language you feel the most productive with?
Carp, Lux and Dale are 3 I'm familiar with.There's also Dylan, though that one dropped its parentheses. But if we go by the brackets, technically, we can argue that any expression-based languages is a Lisp. I once wrote a Lisp to JS transpile whose output had more parens than the input. :)
- Dylan is a Programming Language??? AMAZING!
