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.

Friction-less scala - Tell us what is causing friction in your day-to-day life with Scala
Literally what scaladoc is, it comes with sbt. Although, it's better when enhanced with mdoc so that you get the standard microsite template like these. It would be nice to have an sbt serveDocs and if everyone would host their docs for external linking, but javadoc doesn't do that either.

A Scala rant
The good news is that scaladoc is produced by default by sbt and published by default. So you can often pull it from the same repository your library jar came from, extract it with zip, and read the docs. But that's also totally unnecessary - javadoc.io allows you to put in your module info and serves the docs for you, so if there's an older version you can access the documentation this way. Rely on the type signatures, since they can't lie, whilst comments (including scaladoc comments) can. Honestly, library authors should be using mdoc and including examples on every public method, and that type of documentation is something you can almost always contribute to a project for a quick pr kudos.

The future of Scaladoc
I know it's not new but the "Snippet validation and results (mdoc)" features in mdoc are so cool. Really takes some of the tedium out of working with documentation since you can know that as you evolve your code the compiler will make sure you keep the docs in sync. Whole new level of Readme-Driven Development
