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.

Analyzing multi-gigabyte JSON files locally
https://github.com/reegnz/jq-zsh-plugin
I find that for big datasets choosing the right format is crucial. Using json-lines format + some shell filtering (eg. head, tail to limit the range, egrep or ripgrep for the more trivial filtering) to reduce the dataset to a couple of megabytes, then use that jq-repl of mine to iterate fast on the final jq expression.
I found that the REPL form factor works really well when you don't exactly know what you're digging for.

Jaq – A jq clone focused on correctness, speed, and simplicity
Have you tried `gron`?
It converts your nested json into a line by line format which plays better with tools like `grep`
From the project's README:
▶ gron "https://api.github.com/repos/tomnomnom/gron/commits?per_page..." | fgrep "commit.author"
json[0].commit.author = {};
json[0].commit.author.date = "2016-07-02T10:51:21Z";
json[0].commit.author.email = "[email protected]";
json[0].commit.author.name = "Tom Hudson";
https://github.com/tomnomnom/gron
It was suggested to me in HN comments on an article I wrote about `jq`, and I have found myself using it a lot in my day to day workflow

> So all I want is a tool to go from json => line oriented and I will do the rest with the vast library of experience I already have at transformations on the command line.*
The tool for that is likely https://github.com/tomnomnom/gron

Modern Linux Tools vs. Unix Classics: Which Would I Choose?
If JQ is too much, see GRON &| Miller
gron transforms JSON into discrete assignments to make it easier to grep for what you want https://github.com/tomnomnom/gron
Miller is like awk, sed, cut, join, and sort for data formats such as CSV, TSV, JSON, JSON https://github.com/johnkerl/miller
- XML is better than YAML

jq 1.7 Released
And jless [1] and gron [2].
This is the first I'm hearing of gron, but adding here for completeness sake. Meanwhile, JSON seems to be becoming a standard for CLI tools. Ideal scenario would be if every CLI tool has a --json flag or something similar, so that jc is not needed anymore.
