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.

What’s an actual use case for Rust
In theory you should be able to create Rust notebooks (Jupyter notebook) using evcxr so maybe some AI, data analysis, prototyping make sense if you aim for good performance in final application (protype in evcxr and use notebook as reference to implement final application in Rust for speed and safety).

would you use rust for scripting?

A Case for Rust in Deep Learning
I think you might like this project: https://github.com/google/evcxr . It brings the REPL workflow to Rust, so having fast iteration should not be an issue.

Building a Cloud Database from Scratch: Why We Moved from C++ to Rust
While not Elixir good, the evcxr python notebook plugin gets you 50% of the way there.

Improving Rust compile times to enable adoption of memory safety
I've started liking evcxr (https://github.com/google/evcxr) for REPL. It's a little slow compared to other REPLs, but still good enough to be usable after initial load.

Blog Post: Next Rust Compiler
Would such a project make it possible to have a faster rust repl? We can use evcxr, but it definitely doesn't feel first-class.

Am I dumb in thinking I can use Rust as a Fast Python and leave it at that?
I'm a long-time python developer and develop on the side in Rust for about as long as you, I also found myself familiar with the available datastructures and algorithms, as well as some FP-inspired syntax ( i.e. iterators instead of for loops ) . evcxr is reminiscent of ipython, it can even be integrated with jupyter notebook. And indeed I was surprised to find myself in such a familiar world. It's definitely something that more python developers should be aware of.

Evcxr: A Rust REPL and Jupyter Kernel
I added jupyter notebook support to my nsi[1] crate via evxcr.
It allows you to do a 3D (offline) render with 3Delight (on AWS, if you want) directly into a notebook.
Here is an example notebook[2].
I haven't managed to update the image dynamically while it's rendering (there's no support for that in evxcr). If anyone knows how to do this, I'd be keen to add that too.
