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.

Kerla: Monolithic kernel in Rust, aiming for Linux ABI compatibility
I just meant that even big projects posted here in the past like the Headcrab debugger: https://github.com/headcrab-rs/headcrab have been seemingly abandoned now.
Even Rocket https://github.com/SergioBenitez/Rocket seems to have greatly slowed development unfortunately.

Attach VSCode's debugger to debug Rust inside an Electron app
I remember an attempt at rust native debugging in the form of headcrab
-
what is the status of the debugger?
There was an [ambitious project headcrab](https://github.com/headcrab-rs/headcrab/issues/132), which unfortunately looks abandoned [last commit 2020/11].

Asterinas: OS kernel written in Rust and providing Linux-compatible ABI
There was also the similar project Kerla¹ but development stalled. Recently people argued that instead of focusing on Rust-for-Linux it would be easier to create a drop-in replacement like these two. I wonder if there are enough people interested to make this happen as a sustained project.

Rustaceans at the Border [Linux Kernel]
> How would that work in reality? Re-use the existing tests to build a new kernel from scratch? Sounds like a very far-out idea that wouldn't help with any of the current problems, but I'm happy to entertain the idea and hear your reasoning here.
While I would tend to agree that a full production replacement would be such a massive undertaking as to be impractical, https://github.com/nuta/kerla does something very like that - Linux userspace ABI on an all-new Rust kernel. (And even at this small scale, I find it mind-blowing that this worked)

An OS made from Rust other than Redox
https://github.com/nuta/kerla was mentioned not too long ago - a hobby kernel that aims to reimplement the Linux syscall ABI
