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.

Recommendations for WiFi+Web Server?
I started by trying to use an ESP8266/ESP-01 module just for the WiFi interface, with the idea of hosting the web server on the Teensy 4.0 (T4). But I've had trouble finding well-supported/documented web server code that will run on the T4 and is compatible with the ESP-01's AT-command interface. I did find this library, but my initial tests indicate that it is VERY slow. So I think it's time to consider a different approach based on using an ESP32 to offload the WiFi/Web code.

Recommendations for embedded Web tools?
The controllers are based on the Teensy 4.0 MCU (ARM Cortex-M7 @ 600MHz, ~2MB Flash, ~1MB RAM). I'm currently using an ESP-01 (ESP8266) wifi module configured in soft-AP mode, passing data to the Teensy (T4) MCU via AT commands. The web server I initially chose is the ESP8266_AT_WebServer, which despite the misleading name, runs on the T4. I'm not married to this choice, but it was very easy to integrate and get up and running (and it supports AP mode). But I'm open to other suggestions.
What are some alternatives?
TaskScheduler - Cooperative multitasking for Arduino, ESPx, STM32, nRF and other microcontrollers
Sming - Sming - powerful open source framework simplifying the creation of embedded C++ applications.
bonjour-reflector - A reflector that forwards mdns packets between VLANs - like avahi-reflector but with fine-grained control !
