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.

Pluto, a Modern Lua Dialect
I looked into the jump table optimization. The normal Lua version is here[1] and it uses the opcode as a index into a static array to jump to the label. The “faster” Pluto version is here[2] and it just uses a switch statement on the labels. I would naively assume that these would compile to the same code because the lua version is just manually creating the jump table and the pluto version is leaving it to the compiler. How could the compiler optimize the switch so that would outperform the manual jump table (by a decent margin)?

You can just compile the script through plutoc to see if there are any errors, or use Pluto Language Server to have errors show up in your IDE.
