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.

https://github.com/terjeio/grblHAL/blob/master/doc/markdown/settings.md check this link there is an explanation of grbl code from A to Z

Electronic leadscrew, or full CNC?
And it looks like pendant support was 'enabled' last year in grblHAL, but I don't see the "I'm with stupid guide" that I would need to connect it.

General question: Why use an old LPT interface with so many open source controller available?
If you have time, check it out! https://github.com/terjeio/grblHAL/

Budget budget CNC controllers - what's the bottom line?
You might want to look at grblHAL. It is the 32-bit evolution of Grbl. I make a 5 axis breakout board for it based on a Teensy 4.1. It supports step rates up to 400 kHz which allows you a lot of freedom in selecting microsteps and high speed rapids. All in with the Teensy, it costs about $65-70, depending on options. Here is a gallery with a number of machines based on grblHAL. More about grblHAL here. It is actively being developed with people adding features and porting to new processors (RaspBerry Pico is coming).

- GRBL settings for duplicating X Axis to Y Axis
- Arduino 2560 can’t upload Grbl

Add 4th axis (rotation along the Z axis) on a GRBL CNC
If you use Arduino Mega, you could control up to 6 axis as i know: https://github.com/fra589/grbl-Mega-5X
-
I've made a fifthaxis! it is hobby-sized
For a 5 axis firmware I'm using this https://github.com/fra589/grbl-Mega-5X it's based on GRBL-Mega and it plays super nice on a Ramps shield (super cheap and easy to find).

can i control arduino outputs on a GRBL mega?like to manually code an ATC,or to switch few solenoids
Try this version: https://github.com/fra589/grbl-Mega-5X

Grbl on Creality 8Bit Board
You could use https://github.com/gnea/grbl-Mega or https://github.com/fra589/grbl-Mega-5X And you need to know the pin usage of your board, to setup the config.h file
-
Added 4th axis to my Arduino powered CNC mill
If your are using grbl, this repo might be of interest. Haven't used it but it seems popular enough for a 5 axis grbl firmware. https://github.com/fra589/grbl-Mega-5X
-
Pen plotter
Probably yes, it seems to use a Mega 2560, so you could use https://github.com/gnea/grbl-Mega or https://github.com/fra589/grbl-Mega-5X
