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.

HTML Button To Raspberry Pi 3b+
NodeJS on the Pi can access the GPIO pins - see here for an old example and a newer on here

Raspberry Pi radio alarm clock - part 1
We will need to desolder the LED display or source a compatible module. It's a Sanyo SL-1042-27T. It's a very thin module, so I suspect the driver gubbins is on a separate chip. I know very little about driving LED modules, so at this stage I don't know if I can just bit-bang it from a Node.js script or what.

It is time to power off my tiny RPi zero Xmas tree, sharing the moment with you guys
You can get much better performance by coding a library from scratch I suppose. I heard pigpio in NodeJS would allow that but I never tried myself.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing node-rpio and pigpio you can also consider the following projects:
onoff - GPIO access and interrupt detection with Node.js
johnny-five - JavaScript Robotics and IoT programming framework, developed at Bocoup.
i2c-bus - I2C serial bus access with Node.js
cylon.js - JavaScript framework for robotics, drones, and the Internet of Things (IoT)
spi-device - SPI serial bus access with Node.js
serialport - Access serial ports with JavaScript. Linux, OSX and Windows. Welcome your robotic JavaScript overlords. Better yet, program them!
usb - Improved USB library for Node.js
