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.

VimTeX v2.11
1) I believe as a neovim user you have LSP configured, than try digestif. Note: it does not have builtin lspconfig configuration, adding support for digestif is an excercise for the reader ;) Here is some help: lspconfig contribution section

AUCTeX vs. LSP (Digestif vs. TexLab)
AUCTeX and cdlatex are tried and tested packages in supporting the composition of TeX-documents. However, with the advent of LSP-servers, like TexLab and digestif, there is another (viable?) option to compose TeX-documents.

Does anyone have idea of how to setup Latex language server for lsp-mode?
I’ve tried to follow instructions from digestif (https://github.com/astoff/digestif) but it didn’t work.

Structural LaTeX Editing
The Digestif language server simulates the TeX parsing in a reasonably accurate way, and internally it computes a kind of parse tree. But it doesn't implement all of the LSP editing features, even though this should be a comparatively easy part of the story.

Ann Amsreftex
FWIW, the Digestif language server (https://github.com/astoff/digestif) also supports amsrefs.

I love LaTeX. I hate LaTeX
I have a related feeling about TeX. It has superb output quality but the programming is awful. When LuaTeX finally arrived a few years ago, it was possible to do almost everything you have done before in the TeX language (starting with \backslashes) in Lua.
See http://wiki.luatex.org/index.php/TeX_without_TeX for an introduction.
I have (shameless plug) created a database publishing software using this technique (https://github.com/speedata/publisher/). Once in a while I have to use LaTeX and it feels a bit old school to do the macro programming.
My next project is to rewrite the TeX algorithms in Go - see https://github.com/speedata/boxesandglue. Already usable but not TeX like in any way (this is just a library, not a frontend software like TeX)

LuaTeX Comes of Age
LuaTeX is what TeX should have been from the start (and would have been, if the technology of the time had permitted it). Apart from modern Unicode and font-handling, the main thing IMO is the hooks it provides (in the form of callbacks).
With other TeX engines (mainly: pdfTeX, XeTeX, or the original Knuth TeX), the only "programming" facility is in the form of macros, which were originally added by Knuth only for some simple text substitution to save typing. He never intended to add programming features into TeX, but of course, it doesn't take much to become "accidentally Turing-complete", and that's what TeX macros became. (There's also some rudimentary support for counters/registers, which Knuth added after he found users were (ab)using macros to encode numbers using unary or Church numerals.) So the only way to influence anything TeX does automatically, whether it's hyphenation or line-breaking or page-breaking or whatever, is to set up some macros whose blind expansion will ultimately result in the outcome you want, without affecting anything else (e.g. even an accidental space might get typeset with undesirable results). This of course is cumbersome and error-prone.
With LuaTeX you can program these things at the level you actually intend, e.g. while you can still use macros (or use the `process_input_buffer` callback in Lua), you can now also directly, say, influence the page layout, in a Lua callback that is actually aware of data at the relevant level of abstraction (the vboxes on the page, say), rather than everything being at the lowest (text expansion) level.
Knuth has said that he never intended for TeX macros to be used as a full-fledged programming language (he expected people would directly edit the SAIL/Pascal code of the TeX program for anything nontrivial), and that he dislikes each tool coming with its own Turing-complete programming language, and that if a standard embeddable programming language had been available he'd of course have used it in TeX — I think Lua would count.
You can see "TeX without TeX" page on the LuaTeX wiki for an example of the power of LuaTeX, typesetting with TeX while completely bypassing TeX syntax: http://wiki.luatex.org/index.php/TeX_without_TeX — a more elaborate production system is Speedata Publisher: https://github.com/speedata/publisher
As for myself, here is the most fancy thing I did with LuaTeX: https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/401604/book-on-a-sin... (never "productionized" into a package or whatever). Also, something possibly illuminating is this TeX-vs-LuaTeX comparison of something hyphenation-related (https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/378704/how-to-avoid-...), and in this answer (https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/398310/why-in-2017-d...) I link to some other times I used LuaTeX, though some of them just use the Lua part of LuaTeX rather than LuaTeX hooks, such as computing digits of pi for generating pretty pictures (https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/367902/tikz-color-op...).
