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.

Arraymancer – Deep Learning Nim Library
Jupyter notebook is indeed very important. It mainly provides data scientists with two things: a literate programming environment (mixing text, code and outputs) and a way to hold state of data in memory (so that you can perform computation interactively).
As a different take to literate programming we have created a library and an ecosystem around it: https://github.com/pietroppeter/nimib
For holding state a Nim repl (which is on the roadmap as secondary priority after completing incremental compilation) is definitely an option.
Another option could be to create a library framework for caching (or be able to serialize and deserialize quickly) large data and objects. One way to see it, could be to build something similar to streamlit cache (streamlit indeed provides great interactivity)

Nim 2.0.0 RC2
As a reminder, at Nim Conf back in October 2022 Andreas presented Nim 2.0 in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDi50K_Id_k&list=PLxLdEZg8DR...
Hearing again I cannot chuckle when Araq says: Nim v1 is good at everything, Nim v2 is supposed to be better at everything.
Back then it was supposed to come out in 2022 and indeed a RC1 came out in Dec. In the blogpost for RC1 you find the desciption of all new features: https://nim-lang.org/blog/2022/12/21/version-20-rc.html
This longer time is because extra care is being taken into having a smooth transitions (for example important libraries have been tested to work on nim v2, e.g. we made sure nimib was working with v2 in early Feb: https://github.com/pietroppeter/nimib/releases/tag/v0.3.6)

Nim Version 1.6 Released

Based on that and using a book theme, scinim getting started documentation is being built, e.g.:

Nim v2.0 Released
That looks interesting. Unfortunately it looks like it hasn't been updated in a while? Is that because it's complete or a lack of interest?
For example, the approach mentioned at the bottom of the README of integrating via nlvm (https://github.com/arnetheduck/nlvm) sounded great but appears to be unpursued.

Nim Version 1.6 Released
Being able to compile to C, C++, ObjC, and JavaScript natively (and LLVM using https://github.com/arnetheduck/nlvm ), along with an excellent FFI (including to and from Python) means you don't need to rewrite dependencies as you can use them directly. Nim is great at glue code - arguably better than Python.
Along with general language characteristics such as being high level and productive like Python, but with intricate "bare metal" control when you want it, really does make it suitable for writing almost everything.
