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.

Lua: The Little Language That Could
There's Lua implementation [1] in pure Rust, by the way.

Do Rust and Lua work well together?
The rust ecosystem is doubling down on wasm with little to no focus on lua (some would even prefer to build their own programming language) that doesn’t mean lua is pretty bad for the rust ecosystem it’s just that there’s no much focus as to compared to wasm Example I noticed is https://github.com/kyren/luster

Scripting Languages of the Future
Tossing my hat in for Passerine [1]. Gorgeous ML inspired syntax. Built for scripting Rust applications.
Dreaming here: Lua is a fantastic scripting language, but the Rust FFI isn’t as ergonomic as it could be. Enter Luster [2], which is basically LuaJIT rewritten in Rust.
Embedding a scripting language in a Rust application gives you tons of power (e.g. scripting Rust structs from Lua [3]), and setting this up isn’t terribly difficult.

Google ZX – A tool for writing better scripts
Friends, I'm not saying that tools like zx are not good. I do like to write some scripts using js/ts. I believe pythoners prefer https://xon.sh/ . Perl is also attractive and interesting. Fish is friendly.
However, I still believe that posix-shell has its own advantages. The balance among size, code length, and expressiveness. I think the only possible competitors are tcl and perl, maybe lua.

Shh: Simple Shell Scripting from Haskell
Those of you who use (or used) this as your shell: care to share your experience?
It seems a lot less full-featured than https://xon.sh/, but maybe you don't need a lot of bells and whistles for regular usage. I mostly run build, execute, and install commands.
I'm somewhat enticed at the possibility of being able to wrap common executables into forms that are typed (like nushell or elvish) and manipulate them in a way that leverages the type checker.

Marcel the Shell
In that case, is it even more similar to xonsh?
https://xon.sh/
- Shshsh is a bridge connects Python and shell
What are some alternatives?
lua-cmake - Embed lua with CMake
nushell - A new type of shell
passerine - A small extensible programming language designed for concise expression with little code.
fish-shell - The user-friendly command line shell.
lua-lockbox - A collection of cryptographic primitives written in pure Lua
ipython - Official repository for IPython itself. Other repos in the IPython organization contain things like the website, documentation builds, etc.
moonsharp - An interpreter for the Lua language, written entirely in C# for the .NET, Mono, Xamarin and Unity3D platforms, including handy remote debugger facilities.
oh-my-bash - A delightful community-driven framework for managing your bash configuration, and an auto-update tool so that makes it easy to keep up with the latest updates from the community.
luau - A fast, small, safe, gradually typed embeddable scripting language derived from Lua
PowerShell - PowerShell for every system!
