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.

Better OpenSCAD?
https://github.com/SolidCode/SolidPython --- apparently there's a fork as a v2 which is to be preferred
- Is there a way to assign properties to solid objects?
-
Created a makefile build system using python for easier generation of multiple scad objects
Then use SolidPython to generate the scad files. ;)

GhostSCAD: Marrying OpenSCAD and Golang
I wonder how many OpenSCAD wrappers now exist? I know of scad-clj [0], openpyscad [1], and solidpython [2].
I particularly like scad-clj, because of `lein auto generate`. It watches source files, and regenerates the OpenSCAD files automatically, which OpenSCAD then also picks up. Although I'm not well versed in Clojure, and find debugging Clojure tricky, the workflow is just so good.

OpenScad is great, but slow to render.
Also, if it’s screw threads you’re after, there may just be some faster (== non-minkowski) ways to do that. OpenSCAD calculates polyhedrons much faster than big unions of parts. Buut, OpenSCAD also kinda sucks for doing vector math. I wrote SolidPython to get around some of the constrictions of OpenSCAD, and the screw_thread utility method should render decently detailed threads (120 segments per revolution, say) in a few seconds.

Support for Javascript?
This sub is understandably enthusiastic about the OpenSCAD language, but I’m with you in preferring existing general purpose languages. For browser-enabled Python & OpenSCAD, check out ViewSCAD, or for basic Python, see my SolidPython
