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.

Interpreter in Rust
First off, awesome, interpreters and emulators are really fun projects. I've written a very similar project which might be useful for reference https://github.com/ncatelli/mainspring. As for parsing to your enum representation KerfuffleV2 gave a great example for nom. That being said, if you'd like to peek behind the curtain a bit for combinators and the principles behind nom, Bodil Stokke has a WONDERFUL tutorial on the topic https://bodil.lol/parser-combinators/ which will be directly applicable to what you are trying to do. Additionally, while targetted at using java, https://craftinginterpreters.com/ by Bob Nystrom is available for free online and covers the topic of writing really simple recursive decent parsers.

Introducing colorgrad, Rust color-scales library
Since color research is quite arcane and full of pitfalls, you might want to add some description regarding perceptual linearity, colorblindness (e.g. link to https://www.color-blindness.com/coblis-color-blindness-simulator/ ), and other visual deficiencies (e.g. https://github.com/UniStuttgart-VISUS/visual-system-simulator ).
What are some alternatives?
When comparing mainspring and visual-system-simulator you can also consider the following projects:
madsim - Magical Deterministic Simulator for distributed systems in Rust.
colorgrad-rs - Rust color scales library
chumsky - Write expressive, high-performance parsers with ease.
d3-scale-chromatic - Sequential, diverging and categorical color scales.
