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.

Rust for realtime motion control.
Makes sense. The EtherCAT master component can be loaded as a kernel module (for Etherlab), which I think is somewhat independent of the user code. The rust code interfaces with the driver through syscalls. There is some discussion about Rust with PREEMPT_RT here https://github.com/rust-embedded/linux-embedded-hal/issues/45 but it looks like it is still open.

Rust for realtime motion control.
Not directly related but there are some Rust wrappers around EthetCAT libraries such as https://github.com/ethercat-rs/ethercat. EtherCAT is commonly used as a realtime fieldbus in industrial motion control, for example KUKA and Staubli use EtherCAT between their motion controller and the servo drives. KUKA uses Acontis as the EthetCAT master software, but I am not sure what motion libraries they use.
