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
Author here. I've made the demo system public [1] but it's written just for me so it should be painful to set up the same environment.
The mechanism is pretty simple: a Node.js server (running on genuine Linux) listens on tcp:22. Once you connect, it boots a dedicated Firecracker microVM instance and forwards network packets between your SSH client and VM.
Regarding the command history, others (including I) can't see what you type. If you could, it must be a vulnerability.

Writing an OS in Rust to run on RISC-V
Xous, the OS that runs on the precursor, may be of interest to look at too:
https://github.com/betrusted-io/xous-core
It is written in Rust and is targeted for a RISC-V

Is there any reliable guide for creating an operating system in Rust?
In addition to phil-opp and redox, there's the Betrusted project's Xous kernel, which runs on a RISC-V core that runs on an FPGA. There's even an Xous Book.
- How can I call cargo commands from rust?

Another Vulnerability in the LPC55S69 ROM
You might be interested in Precursor and the Betrusted Platform.
https://www.crowdsupply.com/sutajio-kosagi/precursor
They are trying to have an hardware platform that can be inspected and it is based on an FPGA with a RISC-V Softcore.
Its by Bunnie, and he great talks about the choices and why he made them:
Keynote: Precursor - Trustable Open Hardware for Everyday Use - Bunnie Huang (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fw5FEuGRrLE)
They are also doing their own Rust Message passing OS called Xous that might be of interest.

Kerla: Monolithic kernel in Rust, aiming for Linux ABI compatibility
There are more good efforts, the BeTrusted guys are working on Xous, its a microkernel for a phone like device called the Precurser.

As a embedded service processor OS for a big server rack, Oxide Computer is working on 'HubrisOS'. They seem to have not released it yet, but that will be open sourced.
https://github.com/oxidecomputer
Those are two efforts where I know real resources are going into.
