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.

Project Management Software Can't Save You
It took me years to realize that the most difficult thing is actually to systematically derive what to do, and that in any decently complex project systems engineering (an art and science apparently long forgotten) methods are the only way to derive that in a sufficiently reliable way. The result is - no wonder - not just a gantt chart, but an n-dimensional model with multiple levels of detail. The PMI writings just tell you that you e.g. have to create a WBS, but they leave you all alone with how to derive something like this systematically. Accordingly, the many PM tools seem helpless to me, where some computer scientists have simply built something that corresponds to the outward appearance of what they assume under PM.
I worked for many years on large, complex government projects and eventually started building prototypes for tools that would be useful (e.g. https://github.com/rochus-keller/FlowLine2 or https://github.com/rochus-keller/WorkTree); but you would have to invest a lot more development resources, and whether people would understand the tools and their usefulness (so there would be a market) is questionable.

Project Xanadu
This was a visionary undertaking. I implemented transclusion in CrossLine and it's very useful (see https://github.com/rochus-keller/CrossLine).
- CrossLine is a desktop Outliner in the tradition of Ecco Pro supporting cross-links and transclusion

A Definitive Note App Comparison
I use CrossLine (https://github.com/rochus-keller/CrossLine) for all my projects (some really big and complex) since 14 years, as a notebook for facts, minutes, results, action items and whatever unstructured information drops in during a project or daily life; I even use it for requirements management and specification development.
- CrossLine, the Outliner in the tradition of Ecco Pro with cross-links and transclusion reached 1.0 and runs on Mac, Linux and Windows
