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.

What is your favorite programming language?
I don't really have any resources on hand. I've been maintaining https://github.com/archlinux/alpm.rs for the past ~3 years so it's just experience hacking on that and writing C.

NixOS: Declarative Builds and Deployments
The same reason Bazel builds avoid using Cargo when building Rust software, so I'll describe why Bazel would do this:
- Bazel wants to cache remote resources, like each respective crate's source files.
- Bazel then wants to build each crate in a sandbox, and cache the build artifacts
This is an established practice, and Nix wants to drive the build for the same reasons.

Regarding what happened to P0447: Why?
I can make much more sense of C++ code to ensure that two build systems produce the same effect than I can parse and learn two completely unconnected programming languages deeply enough to do the same. I can unit-test core routines. I can as easily extract core logic into shared (configuration) files etc. The benefit of a standard is not to discourage alternatives but rather to agree on definitive semantics and shared and common needs (that is: in this case needs for interfaces to the compiler/linker). The implementation and general availabilty is just one of the by-product. The ability to do introspection in common terms is maybe the most consequential other product, and this is critical for 'transpiling' to other build systems and writing automated adapters such as the one that bazel is recommend for cargo's dependency management.

What is your favorite programming language?
Cargo is not that tightly coupled with Rust. You can absolutely use bare rustc, and in fact people do that with other build systems like Bazel.

Six Years of Rust
Interesting, aren't the community-driven crates for these areas satisfactory enough? There's PROST and tonic, and quite well-used. I don't know about Bazel though, but I found this. Feel free to correct me on this subject, I admit I don't know that much about it.

Integrating Rust Into the Android Open Source Project | Google Security Blog
There is a project to generate Bazel BUILD files from Cargo.toml.
What are some alternatives?
arch-audit - A utility like pkg-audit for Arch Linux. Based on Arch Security Team data.
prost - PROST! a Protocol Buffers implementation for the Rust Language
flexo - a central pacman cache
tonic - A native gRPC client & server implementation with async/await support.
toru - Pacman wrapper with AUR support.
prost - PROST! a Protocol Buffers implementation for the Rust Language
paccat - Print pacman package files
dmd - dmd D Programming Language compiler
rust - Empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.
sccache - Sccache is a ccache-like tool. It is used as a compiler wrapper and avoids compilation when possible. Sccache has the capability to utilize caching in remote storage environments, including various cloud storage options, or alternatively, in local storage.
reboot-arch-btw - Checks if your ArchLinux needs a reboot due to a kernel update
