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.

Open source sofware/software contribution opportunities in Fusion
DREAM is currently used to simulate disruptions in ITER-like plasmas. Mainly people from the Chalmers University of Göteborg work on it but if you feel like it you can contact them on GitHub. The code is under the MIT license.

BOUT++: a framework for writing fluid and plasma simulations in curvilinear geometry
-
What programming languages are most used for creating advanced math-related software/simulations?
At least in my field (computational plasma physics), the majority of software is (in descending order) Fortran (e.g., SOLPS-ITER), Python (e.g., IPS; OMFIT; UEDGE), and C/C++ (e.g., BOUT++; Exascale Computing Project tools).
-
how much relevance is given to code quality in your academia projects?
I don't want to paint too bleak a picture of my field - there are definitely big, well-supported projects that invest in code quality! For example, Bout++ is a fluid solver whose devs care a lot about best practices, and the folks at the Exascale Computing Project are doing great work with tools like Kokkos (GPU acceleration of HPCcodes), ADIOS (I/O for HPC), AMREX (meshes for HPC), etc.
