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.

which tool is recommended for kmer based analysis to compare draft genome and sequencing reads.
KAT or merqury. Avoid QUAST.

Is Unicycler the best option for hybrid genome assembly?
Yeah, Unicycler is solid. iirc Unicycler v5.0+ removes Pilon, so you'll still want to polish your final assembly with your short reads. I like using QV as a quick way to see if I should polish more or not.

Deciding on genome assembly software
I would recommend using Merqury to see the completeness and quality of your assembly. https://github.com/marbl/merqury

Functional pangenome analysis using Roary strategy?
How about mGWAS, such as Scoary or my about-to-be-published successor Scoary2?

Is Unicycler the best option for hybrid genome assembly?
BONUS: I was planning on using Scoary (https://github.com/AdmiralenOla/Scoary) together with some Virulence data I have to look for some candidates. Any suggestion of alternative ways to identify virulence factors in these genomes?
What are some alternatives?
quast - Genome assembly evaluation tool
plassembler - Program to quickly and accurately assemble plasmids in hybrid and long-only sequenced bacterial isolates
EukCC - Tool to estimate genome quality of microbial eukaryotes
scoary-2 - Calculate assocations between genes and traits
EukRep - Classification of Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic sequences from metagenomic datasets
sgkit - We've moved to https://github.com/sgkit-dev/sgkit
metaGEM - :gem: An easy-to-use workflow for generating context specific genome-scale metabolic models and predicting metabolic interactions within microbial communities directly from metagenomic data
Perfect-bacterial-genome-tutorial
CompareGenomeQualities - Reference free comparison of genome assemblies
KAT - The K-mer Analysis Toolkit (KAT) contains a number of tools that analyse and compare K-mer spectra.
