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.

Any suggestion for gpu text rendering?
I've only used ab-glyph myself though.

How to render text with rust?
ab_glyph is at the same level to DirectWrite/uniscribe where you hand it a character, and it hands you back a rasterized glyph - it's on you on how to draw it.

Like tiny-skia? As for font-specific one there are ab-glyph and fontdue.

Practicing Rust, Learning Bevy, Creating a WASM Snake Game for the Browser
Nice.
Speaking of Snake game, if you want to go even deeper, you can try to use the wgpu crate to combine Rust and WebGPU to write everything from scratch. Here is the tutorial:
https://sotrh.github.io/learn-wgpu/#what-is-wgpu
I once wrote a code editor with wgpu, from font rendering to char/line state management (very rough) for music live coding:
https://github.com/glicol/glicol-wgpu
It runs in browsers, even including Safari!

Realtime Ray Marching implemented with Rust and wgpu
https://sotrh.github.io/learn-wgpu/ This is probably the best resource out there for learning wgpu specifically. If you're unfamiliar with graphics, the learnopengl one is good. If you've got experience though, jumping right into that one is a shout or looking at some vulkan ones as they're pretty similar in terms of architecture.

What would be a good project structure/ design for a game engine using WebGPU?
Most of The WGPU I learnt is from https://sotrh.github.io/learn-wgpu/ but it doesn't really talk about designing n stuff, I thought of checking out the source code for Bevy or even games like veloren. But well, their codebases are pretty big to get started in the first place.

Learning OpenGL before wgpu?
So I was wondering if opting for option 1 would be better to begin with. OpenGL has a much bigger community and wgpu only has its documentation which I hear is not quite up there yet. There is this excellent tutorial for wgpu that I read through, but it seems like wgpu can be a lot more complicated than starting with OpenGL.

Getting started with computer graphics with Rust
I started with wgpu tutorial (https://sotrh.github.io/learn-wgpu/) since I like the idea of portability and it's a Rust-first library, but it seems I'm missing some foundations of how CG works in general: the code is given, a little of explanation like it assumes I already know something, maybe I'm wrong, but I wish there was a longer explicit version.

Trying to learn wgpu
If you haven't seen it: https://sotrh.github.io/learn-wgpu/ is a good introduction that will explain most of what you asked, then can refer to rend3d or bevys renderer to see how a render graph works.
