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.

Gokrazy – Go Appliances
Interesting, and thanks.
I didn't know about those. I kind of thought you may have used MirageOS, which I had read about earlier. It is done in OCaml.

What's Zig got that C, Rust and Go don't have? [video]
Unix system programming in OCaml (2014)
https://ocaml.github.io/ocamlunix/
"MirageOS is a library operating system that constructs unikernels for secure, high-performance network applications across a variety of cloud computing and mobile platforms."

PostgreSQL reconsiders its process-based model
That was/is part of the promise of the whole unikernel thing, no?
https://mirage.io/ or similar could then let you boot your database. That said, it's not really taken off from what I can tell, so I'm guessing there's more to it than that.

Writing an OS in Rust to run on RISC-V
MirageOS is not Rust, but in the ballpark!

Container runtime as a static binary?

Is there an operating systems that is a runtime of a programming language?
MirageOS is a runtime for OCaml to create unikernels. They describe themselves as "library operating system". Probably not quite what you were asking for, but I think it's quite interesting for certain use cases (e.g. running services as standalone unikernels in VMs or embedded devices instead of "traditional" programs on top of a general purpose OS).

If I know neither Go or Rust, which do I choose to learn first/only?
But there are other brave people exists like biscuit or gopher-os who can do it :)))

Can Go be used for kernel development?
Can it? Yes. Should it? Now that’s up for debate.

random question from a beginner, has anyone written an OS in Go?
I'm sure it would be a fun proof of concept, and there seem to be some projects like https://github.com/gopher-os/gopher-os , but they themselves admit it's just a proof of concept. Every tool has its use.

Go is a nice improvement over C and C++, and it doesn't make me feel dirty like Java does.
I’m pretty the C in the the OS is just the libc that is used for user programs and not part of the actual kernel. There is also gopherOS which contains no C at all. My only point was that it is possible to write one in Go and that Go can be used for low level coding. And I don’t believe you can write an OS in pure python bc it isn’t compiled
