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.

To Learn a New Language, Read Its Standard Library
My advice would be: to learn a new language, start writing some non-trivial projects in it (a few thousand lines of code or so). In some languages (like Python), the standard library is the actually important feature, in other languages (like C), it better to mostly ignore the stdlib. Example: I started learning Zig by writing a Pacman clone (https://github.com/floooh/pacman.zig) and a home computer emulator (https://github.com/floooh/kc85.zig), the Pacman clone doesn't use any Zig stdlib features at all, and the emulator only minimally for parsing command line args and loading data from files.
Zig's stdlib is much more useful than C's, but it's still entirely possible to write useful programs without it and instead focus on learning Zig's language features first.
But on the other extreme, the whole point why I learned Python was its "batteries included" standard library.

Roadmap to master zig
Master syntax - language possibilities, so that you can read code. Ziglings (or github) does great job teaching it!

Problems of C, and how Zig addresses them
I am interested to learn, how Traits in Rust and Interfaces in Go behave differently from this concept.

List of wanted examples?
Yesterday someone introduced me to ziglings, do you mean that? https://github.com/ratfactor/ziglings/tree/main/exercises

Curious noob peeks memory and wants to understand it 😅
Hi! I am learning zig through the Ziglings repo. I was messing around exercise 54 where it shows how you can create a pointer to many items instead of a slice:
