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.

October 2022 monthly "What are you working on?" thread
I wrote a specification a while back for an Expression Language for data validation (mostly for input in loosely typed languages) called Mighty. It’s a pretty simple, expressive, and powerful language that makes validating structured data a breeze. I already implemented it in PHP and currently working on implementing it in other languages (JavaScript makes sense the most right now). The goal is to make an embeddable language to unify how data is validated across multiple languages.

AG unification is the solution for type inference with scientific units
I've done a small implementation, used in type inference, in my language Boba. And you are correct, I used the linear equation solving method.

November 2022 monthly "What are you working on?" thread
The vast majority of October's improvements on Boba were type system and runtime bug fixes. In particular, the effect handler/delimited continuation semantics were hopelessly busted beyond a few simple examples I'd fixated on.

October 2022 monthly "What are you working on?" thread
September was another productive month for Boba, which is starting to get more 'quality of life' improvements rather than broad new features. That doesn't make the work less important: one of the bug fixes to the type inference engine last month caught a previously unseen bug in the core Boba libraries!

Unit Type System
Also worth checking out is Adam Gundry's work on type inference for UoM types. Or, if you want an example implementation of the Abelian unification used in standard type inference extended with UoM types, you can reference my implementation, based on solving linear equations.

August was a surprisingly productive month for the Boba compiler. A few highlights:

The next large feature for Boba (a general-purpose concatenative language) is language integrated property tests.

Soft-launch Boba: a statically-typed concatenative programming language
That's a good question! I wrote up some of my thoughts on the benefits of Go as a backend, but there's also a historical component here. The first backend I was experimenting with was compile-to-C plus a C-based runtime. Go was closer to C than C# for what I needed at the time and I thought had a nicer concurrency story as a backend.
