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.

[Q] Should G-methods, IPTW always be used over traditional regression?
The tlverse/sl3 super learner library is much better integrated and a lot more powerful (a bit more complicated in the beginning but once you understand it, its great). LMTP has a separate branch that uses sl3: https://github.com/nt-williams/lmtp/tree/sl3-devel. To specify formulas is sl3, you just do Lrnr_glmnet$new(formula = ~ 1 + W + A + A*W), but make sure to download the "dev" version: devtools::install_github("tlverse/sl3", ref = "devel").

[Q] Sensitivity of (Causal) Inference to Nonlinear Functional Form
Why not both? https://tlverse.org/causalglm/ (Will replace this with a more informative comment when I have free time later today)

[Q] Should G-methods, IPTW always be used over traditional regression?
This package: https://github.com/tlverse/causalglm was recently developed to fill the gap between fully black box causal learning methods for heterogeneous treatment effects and fully parametric generalized linear model approaches. It allows for both semiparametric and nonparametric robust causal inference for user defined “working parametric models” for the estimands of interest. It is still black box in that non relevant features of the data distribution are estimated using machine learning but the relevant conditional parameters are modeled fully parametrically (with nonparametric robust inference when misspecified). It is very new so use with caution.
What are some alternatives?
tmle3mopttx - 🎯 💯 Targeted Learning and Variable Importance for the Causal Effect of an Optimal Individualized Treatment Intervention
EconML - ALICE (Automated Learning and Intelligence for Causation and Economics) is a Microsoft Research project aimed at applying Artificial Intelligence concepts to economic decision making. One of its goals is to build a toolkit that combines state-of-the-art machine learning techniques with econometrics in order to bring automation to complex causal inference problems. To date, the ALICE Python SDK (econml) implements orthogonal machine learning algorithms such as the double machine learning work of Chernozhukov et al. This toolkit is designed to measure the causal effect of some treatment variable(s) t on an outcome variable y, controlling for a set of features x.
