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.

Marc-André Lafortune on the abstract syntax tree and rewiring Rubocop
This week we’re talking to Marc-André Lafortune, a longtime contributor to the Ruby and Elixir communities, member of the Ruby and rubocop core teams including the core rubocop-ast engine, and creator of the backports gem.

Ruby 3.2 All about "Data" Simple Immutable Value Objects
Yes, I was planning to add it to https://github.com/marcandre/backports, but I didn't have time to. I joined the army training and will be... let's say probably less active in the community for some time.

Alternatives for Ocra ???
You might be better off using Ruby 2.x for now and waiting until Ruby 3.0 is supported on either. Are there Ruby 3-specific features you need? There might be support for them via the backports gem.

Marc-André Lafortune on the abstract syntax tree and rewiring Rubocop
And that's really where it all started. We started using that parser gem and we wrote this tool called deep-cover, which was at the time the first branch covering tool. And it was a little bit crazy. Like if you raised an exception it would actually track that. It was pretty cool and about the same time, the core team was working on a similar tool in C so they both came out around the same time.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing backports and deep-cover you can also consider the following projects:
Traveling Ruby - Self-contained Ruby binaries that can run on any Linux distribution and any macOS machine. [Moved to: https://github.com/FooBarWidget/traveling-ruby]
rubocop-ast - RuboCop's AST extensions and NodePattern functionality
parser - A Ruby parser.
