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.

Is generating code from JSON a good macro use case?
I have implemented code generation following these principles with my rosetta-build crate, if you want to see working code: https://github.com/baptiste0928/rosetta/tree/main/rosetta-build

C++ vs. Rust Build Times
A surprising source of slow compile times can be declarative macros in Rust [0].
I believe the core of the problem is that it has to reparse the code to pattern match for the macro.
One egregious patter is tt-munchers [1] where your macro is implemented recursively, requiring it to reparse the source on each call [2].
In one of my projects, someone decided to wrap a lot of core functions in simple macros (ie nt tt-munchers) to simplify the signatures. Unlike most macros which are used occasionally and have small inputs, this was a lot of input. When I refactored the code, I suspect dropping the macros is the reason CI times were cut in half and a clean `cargo check` went from 3s to 0.5s.

In the build.rs, call your code generation function (probably in a separate crate added in build-dependencies). This function will read your input files, and use something like quote to generate code.

Any good resources for learning Rust macros?
Or you can pair them with crates like syn, and quote for quasi-quoting, and then it's easy to make transformations on the AST of Rust input code. A lot of libraries do this for code-generation and hiding away a lot of complexity (example wasm-bindgen).
What are some alternatives?
