The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

Gleam
Gleam is written in Rust and is a nice example (besides Rust itself) of what it looks like to write a language in Rust. By my own tracking (https://github.com/alilleybrinker/langs-in-rust) Gleam is one of the most popular languages written in Rust and is one of the few top languages in that list which isn't a reimplementation of an existing language!

Rust is ugly, doesn’t even let you write simple data structures, unsafe rust is not even defined, makes the simplest things so hard to write and did I mention it’s ugly?
Ah yes, std, that famous crate that is unusable for systems programming. God forbid anyone do any "systems" programming that uses std.

Scripting language that compiles to Rust?
A scripting language with an interpreter written in rust? Lua doesn't compile to C. The Lua interpreter is written in C and can inter-operate with it. Maybe look here: https://github.com/alilleybrinker/langs-in-rust

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here! (29/2022)!
There are in fact! If I remember correctly, Gluon and Gleam are both done via Combinators. You can probably find many more here

Higher level languages over Rust?
Or maybe see languages implemented in Rust being writen in rust doesn't mean they're good at interacting wirh rust)

Rust is a very nice langage for implementing compilers, and has a nice ecosystem for it (logos, rust-peg, lalrpop, astmaker -- this one is mine --, etc...).

Is there a parsing library (lexer?) which can handle generic tokens?
My peg crate is a parser generator that supports arbitrary token types as input. See https://github.com/kevinmehall/rust-peg/blob/master/tests/run-pass/tokens.rs for an example.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here! (51/2022)!
The one rust parser-generator I used is PEG

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here! (29/2022)!
The two parser generators that I am aware of are lalrpop and PEG. There both great, and have seen some use by languages that have been written in Rust.

Using Nom - a parser combinator library
I wanted to create a parser for Apertium Stream. In 2014, I used Whittle in Ruby. If this year were 2001, I would use Lex/Yacc. Anyway, this year is 2021. I wanted to create this parser in Rust. I tried to find what is similar to Lex/Yacc. I found Rust-Peg. I found a link to Nom from Rust-Peg's document. My first impression was Nom example is easy to read. At least, its document claimed Nom is fast.

Hey Rustaceans! Got an easy question? Ask here (5/2021)!
The peg crate has a resolved issue about this.

Rust is the second most used language for Advent of Code, after Python
I don't really know that much about parsing and grammars, other than what I've learned about regular languages and expressions and context-free languages in a standard Theory of Comp course from my university. I basically just learned peg by reading the Wikipedia article on PEGs, reading the crate documentation to understand the syntax, and then looking at some of the peg examples on their GitHub to understand how it works in practice.
