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.

Anyone know where I can fabricate a case for my Raspberry Pi project?
I like the CutiePi design.
- Custom charges from Taiwan

Resources to learn how to create a display-driving embedded linux application?
One decent example I can think of off the top of my head is the CutiePi, which is a cool little tablet with a UI built with QML.

CutiePi – thinnest Raspberry Pi 4 tablet
Personally I've been waiting for the CutiePi to use the CM4, and now they have updated the platform I'll probably get one myself.
Having said that it looks like a missed opportunity here for supplying the masses with a Linux device for learning purposes especially in the developing countries during the pandemic or not. I think the best price for this device is USD$100 as promised by the ill fated OLPC laptop project. Perhaps USD$100 is not much by developed countries standard incomes but in most part of developing countries you are very lucky to have USD$100 disposable income at the end of the month (or year) to buy your children a tablet/laptop/computer.
It also interesting to note that the 2019 Galaxy Tab A (without LTE) with similar specs (8", 2 GB RAM, etc) to the CutiePie is probably cost about USD$100 nowadays [1].
The good news is that since CutiePie is based on open hardware system perhaps someone can use the open design to come up with a cheaper version closer to the USD$100 price point[2].
p/s: RPi 400 costs about USD$100 but the fact it does not has a built-in screen limits it impacts on usability department for children

New life to old Kindles (just the screen)?
They figured out the protocol for Kindle screens and designed a platform around them. The schematics and hardware design are on github as is the Arduino software, so if you want to play around with a screen you already have then that should supply all the info you need.

CutiePi – thinnest Raspberry Pi 4 tablet
The Inkplate 6 works pretty well - I am using it for my digital picture frame. The only disappointing thing for me is, that they haven't released the actual source files (Eagle, Kicad, etc..) for the hardware yet. [1]
