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.

How to improve help in SLY/SLIME?
Great project. Just an idea, as they might help as a source of snippets and short explanations: the ultraspec documents (apply example and the minispec (stopped, to be revived).

Graven Image: improving CL built-in inspection facilities
There is some overlap with DRef (https://github.com/melisgl/mgl-pax/tree/master/dref) and PAX (https://github.com/melisgl/mgl-pax). Especially with the live documentation browser of the latter (https://quotenil.com/pax-browser.html), although that's clearly not REPL-based.

Documentation generation tool that looks like the hyperspec?
While not the same - https://github.com/melisgl/mgl-pax produces excellent documentation for example - https://rabbibotton.github.io/clog/clog-manual.html

What is a feature of other languages that you miss in Lisp?
Ada has contracts also. I think possible to implement. https://github.com/melisgl/mgl-pax which I use for CLOG does a good job of documenting specs and gives me some ideas about how to go about it and same with generic functions themselves. At some point all apply myself to it.

How to improve help in SLY/SLIME?
I liked MGL-PAX's approach (https://github.com/melisgl/mgl-pax). It allows mix documentation chapters and code in the same file. You can mention any entity in the documentation or docstring and it will be cross referenced. Also, it has an integration with slime and M-. works in the docstrings.
