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.

Any library you would like to recommend to others as it helps you a lot? For me, mapstruct is one of them. Hopefully I would hear some other nice libraries I never try.
error-prone is good for some extra static analysis.

How to use Java Records
A special kind of validation is enforcing that record fields are not null. (Un)fortunately, records do not have any special behavior regarding nullability. You can use tools like NullAway or Error Prone to prevent null in your code in general, or you can add checks to your records:

Why is `suspend` a language keyword, but @Composable and @Serializable are annotations
I am all in favour to more third side libraries adding functionalities, like Lombok, Manifold and error prone. As well as smaller projects like this shameless plug and what appears in this list

What does the future hold for Project Amber?
I haven't used it. I use Google's ErrorProne + Lombok to prevent NPEs in java.

Plans for Compile-time Null Pointer Safety?
Take a look at NullAway, a plugin for Error Prone.

What I miss in Java, the perspective of a Kotlin developer
For some of this stuff, there are compiler extensions that allow extra type checking to be added e.g. Google Error-Prone: https://github.com/google/error-prone with stuff like: https://errorprone.info/bugpattern/ReturnMissingNullable.
Doesn't help you with third party libraries, but across an org applying that rule (and others!) typically ensures some consistency.

Is there a tool to track CVEs for the software that we use?
While at it you could also point them to static code analyzers such as error_prone, spotbugs and pmd (use all 3 at once - they complement each other in detecting different issues).

SpotBugs supports SARIF that supports integration with other SAST tools
First, it's better to use SpotBugs 4.4.1 and above, that includes a fix to make SARIF report compatible with Github code scanning API requirements.

some good tools for general code analysis (Java): Sonarqube, PMD, SpotBugs
What are some alternatives?
SonarQube - Continuous Inspection
PMD - An extensible multilanguage static code analyzer.
FindBugs - The new home of the FindBugs project
Checkstyle - Checkstyle is a development tool to help programmers write Java code that adheres to a coding standard. By default it supports the Google Java Style Guide and Sun Code Conventions, but is highly configurable. It can be invoked with an ANT task and a command line program.
