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.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (8/2023)!
It's pretty common to avoid macros as they can seem too magical a lot of the time. And with traits, there's experiments like miniserde which specifically avoid monomorphization overhead. I also see people who want to avoid having lots of dependencies relatively often.

Right now, the next step would be to try to reimplement miniserde with venial, and publish benchmarks.

The Serde Rust Framework
The only downside is compile time bloat.
Serde generates heaps and heaps of generic code. This gets optimized away to be very efficient, but it can be quite cumbersome.
Ever tried working on a crate with hundreds or thousands of de/serializable types? Compile times shoot through the roof really quickly.
The maintainer of serde also created `miniserde` [1], which uses dynamic dispatch and can have 4x compile time improvements.
Due to Rusts lack of orphan instances you really depend on a pervasive standard for serializiation which is used by all libraries, so the ecosystem is really locked in to serde by now.

The Serde Rust Framework
Whilst not classical de/serialization I wrote serde_v8 (https://github.com/denoland/serde_v8), an expressive and ~maximally efficient bijection between v8 & rust.
It has powered Deno's op-layer since 1.9 (https://deno.com/blog/v1.9#faster-calls-into-rust-with-serde...) and has enabled significant improvements in opcall overhead (close to 100x) whilst also simplifying said op-layer.
