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.

Anon knows programming
And having run across jonesForth (https://github.com/organix/pijFORTHos/tree/master/annexia read the .s file and then the .f file) and basically the idea of building your own personal software stack from scratch, but part of the problem is just having hardware that wasn’t designed to be super complicated to interface with (like USB being much more complicated than PS/2 or wiring up your own grid of switches for a keyboard).

Jonesforth – A sometimes minimal FORTH compiler and tutorial (2007)
I want to write one for bare metal (non-Linux) raspberry pi (ARMv6 32 bit on Raspberry Pi 1 and Zero; ARMv7 and ARMv8 on higher models and also supports 64 bit). I want to have no dependencies required though so was thinking of bootstrapping it with nothing but machine code (determined initially with the help of an assembler and documentation of course). Someone has already ported jonesforth the Raspberry Pi[1] but using serial i/o as the user interface and it has dependecies to build it, but I should be able to get ideas from how they coded their assembly parts compared to the original jonesforth. I want to be able to use HDMI for the screen (already tried it out with some bare metal tutorials in assembly so that's do-able) and again, with no dependencies. And I want to show people how to do it themselves, not just have it be something to run that they don't understand fully. It should also be possible to have the forth kernel build/assemble itself if needed, or cross-target another platform.
I know I'm all talk right now, like you say, I need to manage my free time so that I would have the "copious free time" to work on this.

What are some alternatives?
ti84-forth - A Forth implementation for the TI-84+ calculator.
zForth - zForth: tiny, embeddable, flexible, compact Forth scripting language for embedded systems
cs-topics - My personal curriculum covering basic CS topics. This might be useful for self-taught developers... A work in development! This might take a very long time to get finished!
foth - Tutorial-style FORTH implementation written in golang
Bashforth - A Forth interpreter, entirely written as bash script. But by now is yoda (https://github.com/Bushmills/yoda) the better bashforth.
factor - Factor programming language
oil - Oils is our upgrade path from bash to a better language and runtime. It's also for Python and JavaScript users who avoid shell!
language-incubator - Learning compilers, interpreters, code generation, virtual machines, assemblers, JITs, etc.
fibr - a minimal interpreter
