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.

Managing multiple Go versions in the local environment
I use https://bob.build to switch between go versions in my build graph. It's like... ... build: cmd: go build dependencies: [go_1_18]

Is My Package Reproducible Yet?
Using Nix[0] should solve the reproducibility of a package. We use its package manager for bob[1] to achieve reproducible builds for projects.

- Bob 0.6.3 released - An opinionated Bazel competitor which keeps IDE integration and hot-reloading functional by writing build outputs directly to the scope of a monorepo.

Nix – A One Pager
So, its key features are:
1. domain-specific: designed for conveniently creating and composing derivations. This reason alone already justifies a new language, or an embedded domain-specific language (such as the Guile/Scheme for guix), or a mix of both (Starlark, the build language of Bazel embedded in a restricted Python-variant).
2. purely functional: this ties well into the philosophical backing of Nix the package manager, which aims to be purely functional, also known as hermeticity in other build systems (Bazel).
3. lazily evaluated: similar to other build systems (including Bazel), so that you can build only what you need on demand.
4. dynamically typed: this one is controversial. Being dynamically typed—in other words, not developing a type system—gets Nix out of the door first. But users often complain about the lack of proper types and modularity. There are experiments to address this, such as Nickel (https://github.com/tweag/nickel).
It is understandable that a one-pager may not have space for the whys.

10 Ways for Kubernetes Declarative Configuration Management
Nickel:Nickel is a straightforward configuration language aimed at automatically generating static configuration files. Essentially, it's akin to JSON with the addition of functions and types.

Also look at nickel which is an evolution of nix. It's my favorite in this space.

Nickel 1.0
Nickel is a programming language. While HCL is just a configuration format, so not really comparable.
Here's a comparison with similar tools: https://github.com/tweag/nickel#comparison

Announcing Nickel 1.0, a configuration language written in (and usable from) Rust
As for 'providence', I suppose you meant provenance :) it's been delayed because this was less critical for 1.0 to decide on or to implement (as it: it doesn't break backward compatibility in any way to add this feature in the short term), but this is very much on the roadmap: Issue #235. That's a must-have in a language with merging like Nickel.

Rewrite it in Rust: Kubernetes
Have you considered using a different language for templating? this could be a BIG selling point. Some good ones are cue-lang (though I haven't seen support for rust), kcl or nickel-lang.
