The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

Releasing Gloo 0.4.0
These are two separate libraries that do very different things but share the same name. They are also written in two separate languages. That is a sizable gap between them, and reusing names happens often with libraries. Gloo (rust-wasm, this post) is also not new. Though, relative to Gloo (Go, solo-io), it is newer. But, there is also a Github repo even older than Gloo (solo-io): https://github.com/facebookincubator/gloo. As well, even if these were for some odd reason all about wasm, none of them are actually that popular. solo-io Gloo has the most stars (though that isn't the best metric of popularity, since it is relative to the community that actually uses it), but 3k simply isn't that much. There is certainly a good argument to look down on libraries that reuse popular library names, but this isn't really the case here. Both started not too long after each other (solo-io would not have most of the stars it currently has when Gloo-Rust started), are in separate languages (thus separate communities), and do very separate things.
