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.

Are there any embeddable languages in rust?
The C++ language doesn’t embed Lua, various game engines (and other applications) written in C++ do, using an API binding that provides a C++ wrapper around Lua’s underlying C API. Well there are Lua bindings for Rust as well (as a randomly selected example see hlua), and there are bindings for several other languages as well (like Python).
-
Rust's interface to the Lua programming language is called 'mlua'. not Lust. This should get fixed.
There's an older binding called hlua https://github.com/tomaka/hlua
-
Does rust have function works like eval?
hlua or rlua are what you want for Lua, rust-cpython or PyO3 for Python, rutie for Ruby, and possibly deno_core for JavaScript.

Embeddable Scripting Language for Embedded Rust
A colleague of mine used https://github.com/gluon-lang/gluon with great success in our rust projects. Although it probably can't run in a no_std environment.

loxcraft: a compiler, language server, and online playground for the Lox programming language
Aside from these, if you want some inspiration for a production-grade language built in Rust, you might want to go through the source code of Starlark and Gluon.

Modules and Imports
Some languages, like Zig and Gluon have an import expression, where the imported symbols are under a local constant's name. Gluon then also supports destructuring, and Zig has had multiple proposals for years about it, none of which are canon. That is, code like this:
- Gluon: A New Node.js Framework to Create Desktop Apps
- Rock v0.2.1, a little native toy language I've made with Rust and LLVM.
- Gluon: A static, type inferred and embeddable language written in Rust

Fornjot – The world needs another CAD program
This should be a good use-case for rust-based scripting languages, I think.
I loosely followed a project of that kind a while ago, I don't quite remember if it was Gluon [0] or Dyon [1]. Not sure if these are still active, or if another competitor showed up in meantime.
