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.

Where should I start from Crafting Interpreters if I want to skip the Java implementation?
It's actually the other way round: part one implements an AST walking interpreter in Java while the second part builds an interpreter in C with compilation to byte code for a virtual machine that is also developed from scratch. Currently I try to build the second part solution in Rust (https://github.com/thomasbollmeier/rlox).

Great, I do the same:-). I have however only proceeded with my implementation to the Pratt expression parsing so far: https://github.com/thomasbollmeier/rlox

Bytecode from AST?
I have just started with a rust implementation of the VM and the interpreter from part 2 (https://github.com/ThomasBollmeier/rlox). While following the book I wonder if it wouldn't be easier to build on the interpreter from part 1 and just emit bytecode while traversing the AST.

August 2022 monthly "What are you working on?" thread
I've never made a system like this before, and my initial research seems to suggest that it's a lot of work. Doing a lot of work before being able to use a feature is not my favorite thing, so I looked for really basic implementations of property testing that I could model. Minithesis seems like a small but comprehensive start.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing rlox and minithesis you can also consider the following projects:
boba - A general purpose statically-typed concatenative programming language.
Charm-MacOS - MacOS executable for Charm
xvm - Ecstasy and XVM
kuroko - Dialect of Python with explicit variable declaration and block scoping, with a lightweight and easy-to-embed bytecode compiler and interpreter.
butter - A tasty language for building efficient software. WIP
