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.

I made a command-line tool to assist me with writing polyrhythmic drum parts
Tidalcycles actually runs SuperCollider as its sound backend, through the SuperDirt library: https://github.com/musikinformatik/SuperDirt/

Sonic Pi – Code based live music creation tool
Another excellent Haskell based live-coding tool: https://tidalcycles.org/
Even if you don't know Haskell, it is a delight to improvise electronic music with this library. It comes with its own mini-language for dealing with musical patterns and can synchronize with any instrument. Very extensible, the backend uses https://github.com/musikinformatik/SuperDirt, a SuperCollider extension for dealing with synths / samples / effects.

Libraries for (crossplatform) MIDI and OSC I/O?
Cl-collider is really nice. However, I’m trying to design something so that I can be free from SuperCollider one day. I already programmed a library in Python targeting SuperDirt for live-coding. The drawback is that I’m now dependant on SuperCollider for almost any kind of I/O (OSC pass through SC and out, as well as MIDI).

Sonic Pi – Code based live music creation tool
I appreciate the shoutout to Sporth! Admittedly, I haven't used it for quite a few years. But it still works just fine.
In addition to being a part of AudioKit, it also has it's own repository as a self-contained command line program:
https://github.com/PaulBatchelor/Sporth/
I used to use a live-coding setup with Sporth centered around Vim, though it has never been added to the codebase. If anyone is interested in this, please feel free to email me at thisispaulbatchelor at gmail dot com.
