Two sides of people not being able to upgrade to Windows 11
Finally, to get a decent start menu and context menu back Explorer patcher and Shell work wonders. There is also Open shell if you want that classic Windows 7-10 look, but personally I think it looks dated in comparison. The Win11 start menu looks fine, it's just missing core functionality.

It is not open source. Visit the repository you linked and you will find it is only their website and configuration. The code is closed source, there is an issue on their repo about it: https://github.com/moudey/Shell/issues/139

Tiny 11 for AyaNeo
Honestly not worth it. You are better off, installing an unmodified Windows 11 and later debloat it with a script. The other programs I would recommend are ExplorerPatcher and Nilesoft Shell.

Some tools made by people to reduce the bloat of Windows 10/11.

PSA: Windows 7 is not safe. You're not "cool" for using an unsafe operating system.
Move to Linux if you hate new Windows so much, install Windows 11 and strip it down, do something. But don't stay on an OS that isn't receiving security updates.
