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.

Mirage – A programming framework for building type-safe, modular systems
It is possible to run Mirage in ARM under for example KVM or using the seccomp target.
There is as well an experimental bare-metal target for raspberry pi 4 called gilbraltar https://github.com/dinosaure/gilbraltar. A big obstacle there is the device drivers. It is very cool to run bare metal on an rpi4, but it would be cool to be able use the network interface too.

Gokrazy – Go Appliances
Interesting, and thanks.
I didn't know about those. I kind of thought you may have used MirageOS, which I had read about earlier. It is done in OCaml.

Unix system programming in OCaml (2014)

"MirageOS is a library operating system that constructs unikernels for secure, high-performance network applications across a variety of cloud computing and mobile platforms."

PostgreSQL reconsiders its process-based model
That was/is part of the promise of the whole unikernel thing, no?
https://mirage.io/ or similar could then let you boot your database. That said, it's not really taken off from what I can tell, so I'm guessing there's more to it than that.

MirageOS is not Rust, but in the ballpark!

Is there an operating systems that is a runtime of a programming language?
MirageOS is a runtime for OCaml to create unikernels. They describe themselves as "library operating system". Probably not quite what you were asking for, but I think it's quite interesting for certain use cases (e.g. running services as standalone unikernels in VMs or embedded devices instead of "traditional" programs on top of a general purpose OS).
What are some alternatives?
solo5 - A sandboxed execution environment for unikernels
unikraft - A next-generation cloud native kernel designed to unlock best-in-class performance, security primitives and efficiency savings.
HaLVM - The Haskell Lightweight Virtual Machine (HaLVM): GHC running on Xen
oberon-riscv - Oberon RISC-V port, based on Samuel Falvo's RISC-V compiler and Peter de Wachter's Project Norebo. Part of an academic project to evaluate Project Oberon on RISC-V.
unik - The Unikernel & MicroVM Compilation and Deployment Platform
Carp - A statically typed lisp, without a GC, for real-time applications.
linuxkit - A toolkit for building secure, portable and lean operating systems for containers
Mezzano - An operating system written in Common Lisp
Lupine-Linux - Linux in Unikernel Clothing
console - a debugger for async rust!
tracing - Application level tracing for Rust.
