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.

Creating my own ecosystem.
With my recent foray into Lua programming, and seeing just how many pure Lua modules there are for some tasks (like lua-lockbox for crypto primitives), and the fact LuaJIT can interface pretty easily with any C ABI, I've definitely considered it, especially since I could modify existing software to shove a Lua interpreter in for my needs.

Rust and Lua api
There's the rlua package for running lua in your rust app: https://github.com/amethyst/rlua

What is your favourite Rust specific feature that you miss in other languages?
Some sys crates do embed the source files, like rlua for example.

I hate automod and have a question
Yes though, given that a CCleaner/BleachBit-style situation is going to be I/O-bound, I'd probably go with rlua, PyO3, or rust-cpython for plugins.

Ketos: Lisp dialect scripting and extension language for Rust programs
I wrote up some rust low-level bindings for guile [1]. The problem is that Guile liberally uses setjmp/longjmp, which breaks rust destructors. It might be possible to fix this by wrapping every call the way rlua does [2], but I'm not familiar enough with Guile to know.

Rust's interface to the Lua programming language is called 'mlua'. not Lust. This should get fixed.
And.. another binding finally called rlua https://github.com/amethyst/rlua

Does rust have function works like eval?
hlua or rlua are what you want for Lua, rust-cpython or PyO3 for Python, rutie for Ruby, and possibly deno_core for JavaScript.

I open sourced a game I just released on Steam, written in Lua
Janet is what introduced me to Fennel. Conjure [1] sold me on Fennel over Janet. The Neovim community is rallying around Lua.
(And in fact, what sold me on Rust was its truly excellent Lua FFI support [2].)
