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.

Async rust – are we doing it all wrong?
I do that of course, and that's one of the easiest ways to use async Rust. In real projects you need much more however. F.ex. I had to code an example of how to add tasks to an already running pool of tasks and posted my findings here: https://github.com/dimitarvp/rust-async-examples/blob/main/e... (there's #2 as well with some more comments and a different approach).
The fact that I needed to make a GitHub repo and start making show-and-tell demos on how to do various things with async Rust to me is both a red flag and me being diligent BUT it should be more obvious. And promoted in docs.
Rust started suffering from "you got all the nuts and bolts in place, now build your own solution, son" syndrome which I grew to dislike. Too low-level. I wouldn't mind something akin to e.g. Golang's flowmatic library (check the first two examples at the top of the README): https://github.com/carlmjohnson/flowmatic

Async rust – are we doing it all wrong?
Your CRUD web application server almost certainly doesn't need async Rust. Using a blocking HTTP server is not "might be a good idea", it simply is a good idea.
I recommend Rouille for this: https://github.com/tomaka/rouille. In case you are worried about performance, check the benchmark. Blocking Rouille is faster than builtin async server in Node.js.

Best backend web frameworks with blocking io (i.e. not async)?
As you say, the majority of the web ecosystem in Rust has moved to async - but if you’re happy to stray a bit from the beaten path then rouille might do the trick.

An Express-inspired web framework for Rust
In strongly typed languages like Rust, composing smaller libraries is usually quite painless, so you don't need a large framework.
Personally for backend Rust I use rouille[0] for the server (it's very simple and async-free), askama[1] for compile-time HTML templates and (if a SPA is unavoidable, as that is of course always to be avoided if at all possible) yew[2] for client-side WASM.
Now this stack is what I like personally, but there are many options that you can combine, some more full-featured than others. Check out https://www.arewewebyet.org/ for a partial overview.

Which Rust web framework to choose in 2022 (with code examples)
rouille
I'd like to put in a word for a simple, sync framework such as rouille. The compile times are much, much better, the number of dependencies is much smaller, the stuff it's built on (the standard library) is extensively tested and extremely reliable. Kernel context switches are slower than userspace thread scheduling, but not much slower, and as long as your services aren't just shoving bytes from one place to another (i.e. actually doing some computation) the time taken for a context switch vanishes into noise. A lot of benchmarks test how quickly a web service can move bytes, which (if your business logic is non-trivial) actually isn't the most critical factor.

Hey rustaceans, which web framework you guys suggest for a small application?
I don't have any Rust-relevant experience here, but if I wanted to build a web server in Rust and was okay with "reasonable" performance, I'd probably give rouille a try first.

The Rustacean way to build a complete web app?
Rouille is fairly solid in my experience. Save the pain of async and spend it building software that works. Honestly with Rust's lack of GC you get predictable response times already.
