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.

Let's collect relatively new research programming languages in this thread
Jasmin, late 2010s, a language designed to be lower-level than C and provide good low-level control for cryptographic code. Basically a new take on "C as a high-level assembly language", with formal semantics etc. I suspect that this design space is rather close to "a good language to use as a compiler backend", but I think this would require changes to Jasmin and no one is working on that as far as I know.

Let's collect relatively new research programming languages in this thread
Usuba, a domain-specific language for writing efficient "bit-sliced" cryptographic code. (Jasmin is a low-level language for fine-grained performance control, which was motivated by the needs of cryptographic routines, but its design is not crypto-specific. Usuba is a domain-specific language for cryptography.)
