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.

This Week In Python
PikaPython – ultra-lightweight Python interpreter that runs with only 4KB of RAM, zero dependencies
- PikaPython: Cross platform ultra lightweight embedded Python engine

MicroPython VS PikaPython - a user suggested alternative
2 projects | 25 Dec 2023
An ultra-lightweight Python interpreter that runs with only 4KB of RAM, zero dependencies. It is ready to use out of the box without any configuration required and easy to extend with C. Similar project: MicroPython, JerryScript.

Learning Embedded rust
A very interesting solution for high level interface access by less professional developers could be seen in pikascript, which works even on very small devices. WAMR is another project with similar capabilities. Both of them can be very well combined with core infrastructure realized as embedded rust code.

This Week in Python
pikascript – An ultra-lightweight Python engine that can run with 4KB of RAM
- pikascript: An ultra-lightweight Python engine that can run with 4KB of RAM and 32KB of Flash (such as STM32G030C8 and STM32F103C8), and is very easy to deploy and expand.

Type information for faster Python C extensions
Lower latency native calls in Python would be extremely useful, thank you for your work! Is the following GitHub issue the right place to monitor progress? https://github.com/faster-cpython/ideas/issues/546
I'm open to doing some benchmarking. Several of my libraries have pure CPython bindings (StringZilla, UCall, SimSIMD), and all perform low-latency SIMD-accelerated ops, so might be a good testing ground :)

How Many Lines of C It Takes to Execute a and B in Python?
Recent CPython development has been towards optimizations and addressing use cases that benefit from optimizations, some coming from the faster CPython initiative. You might just get your JIT[1].

GIL removal and the Faster CPython project
The faster-cpython folks seem to be working towards a JIT (https://github.com/faster-cpython/ideas/tree/main/3.13) and both pyston and cinder have JITs. So I don't think anyone has ruled one out.

Our Plan for Python 3.13
faster-cpython team has done a lot of work to experiment on it: https://github.com/faster-cpython/ideas/issues/485#issuecomm...
It kind of sounds like migration to register based is a foregone conclusion, but it's not very clear to me.

Faster CPython at PyCon, part two
lots of big ideas are still remaining to be done. One example is the register based interpreter, see https://github.com/faster-cpython/ideas/issues/485
A previous plan called for the beginning of a JIT in 3.12, seen as "Trace optimized interpreter" here: https://github.com/faster-cpython/ideas/wiki/Workflow-for-3....
