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.

Lezer: A Parsing System for CodeMirror, Inspired by Tree-Sitter
I attempted to use this but was disheartened but the fact that it doesn't statically type node names. Tree Sitter doesn't either but it has much more of an excuse given that it targets C.
https://github.com/lezer-parser/lezer/issues/8
The dev seems mildly hostile to outside involvement too, so I moved on. These days I use Chumsky which is Rust rather than Typescript, but also way more awesome, if you can deal with the often incomprehensible compilation errors at least!

Parsing in JavaScript: all the tools and libraries you can use
Treesitter is not JS (although the Wasm version can be used from JS). Lezer (https://github.com/lezer-parser/lezer) is similar (it was inspired by Treesitter) and is written in TS.

Lezer: A Parsing System for CodeMirror, Inspired by Tree-Sitter
I learned from a google search that these days upstream tree-sitter provides WebAssembly bindings.
Source: https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter/tree/master/lib/b...
NPM: https://www.npmjs.com/package/web-tree-sitter
Download from the latest Github release: js file (https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter/releases/download...) and wasm file (https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter/releases/download...)

Difftastic, a structural diff tool that understands syntax
Tree-sitter optimizes for performance (to use in editors), not for correctness. In fact even TS' core developers advocate for not bothering too much with correctness of grammars[1]. I imagine this constraint would be a deal-breaker for GitHub or anyone else in their position.

Shiki Syntax Highlighter
Is tree-sitter really slower than TextMate grammars? Some benchmarks indicate that this isn't really the case [1]. On the other hand, breaking parse trees is a real issue, because the error-recovery in tree-sitter is pretty rudimentary [2][3], but as you said, it's not an issue for Shiki.
Several TextMate grammars suffer from inaccuracy bugs, and issues of maintainability. Perhaps the biggest hindrance in the adoption of tree-sitter, is that the most popular editor, VSCode, still doesn't support it.

It seems that some BIG improvements of Treesitter on BIG FILEs have been merged into Nightly! (minutes ago!)
u/lewis6991 I think the biggest performance gain was made by tree-sitter itself: https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter/pull/2085

Looking for Tree-sitter query documentations and guides
I asked on the repo's discussions but responses are limited and not explanatory (I'm not shaming anyone here, discussions aren't a place for detailed how-tos and documentations anyway).

Will Treesitter ever be stable on big files?
The following discussion here. TS query cannot be incremental, that is why I regard it as design fault.
