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.

An Explain like I'm 12 Introduction to the Exciting Frontier Which is Zero Knowledge Technology
Finally, the are a few other zkRollups being built such as Polygon Hermez and Scroll but to go into every project in detail would require a whole post on its own. Hopefully this has been a helpful introduction to the fascinating but often confusing world of zero knowledge technology. if you want to learn more about rollups and zkRollups I’d highly recommend checking out some of u/Liberosist’s posts on the topic. or if you want to learn more about zero knowledge tech specifically, Matter Labs curated a great list of resources here: https://github.com/matter-labs/awesome-zero-knowledge-proofs

Why should you care about Ethereum Layer-2?
You can combine the two and have private transactions which are then rolled up in a computation, and then post the proof of the computation to mainnet. You get both cheap and private transactions and infra on top of the base chain.
But this goes beyond blockchain: we can hand code to other people to run and then have proof they haven't altered what we agreed upon running, so we can trust the results of someone else running something. That is useful in all sorts of research for replicability in science/engineering.

Cryptographers Solve Decades-Old Privacy Problem
One of the applications are ZK-Rollups [1] which allow developers to move heavy computation off a blockchain. The blockchain receives the results and only validates proofs that they are valid. This is especially useful on Ethereum because its computational throughput is pretty low.
There's also ZCash [2], which is a cryptocurrency that lets you make untraceable transactions. This is in stark contrast to Bitcoin or Ethereum, where transaction information is available publicly to everyone. They have a series of blog posts [3] on the math that actually makes it work under the hood.

What's a Zero-Knowledge Proof?
Definitely not! The first article on the topic is from 1985, when cryptocurrencies were far from being a trending topic. However, this assumption is based on the fact that associating zero-knowledge proofs with blockchain technology can create a privacy-protecting, secure and decentralised environment. ZCash was the pioneer cryptocurrency to bring this technology to blockchains. Today, in addition to it, there are other alternatives such as Horizen (ZEN) and, recently, Tron (TRX) has added this functionality to its platform. They are all small networks – Tron, the biggest of them, only ranks 17th in market cap among all Cryptos – but its potential is great.
