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.

Time, Space and Complexity
The proposal of "syntactic tail calls" to provide an explicit syntax for tail calls, co-championed by committee members from Mozilla (responsible for SpiderMonkey, the engine of Firefox) and Microsoft, was a response to these concerns. However, this proposal is now listed among the TC39's inactive proposals, possibly due to diminished interest, which may stem from the infrequent use of tail recursive functions in JavaScript.

At Least Skim The Manual
Then there are proposals for new features. Some proposals move through quickly, though some of these will never make it into the spec. They can be available months or years in advance through Babel plugins and other tools. Be aware that these allow you to write code that may never become valid JavaScript, but they can be useful for simplicity and readability, so long as you understand the requirements.

Javascript doubt
The latest version of the ECMAScript standard is referred to as ES2022. However, there are almost always something new cooking, which you can use (ESNext) if yo have a javascript engine that implements it, or if you use a polyfill which implements some particular feature for earlier javascript engines.

Upcoming Interesting JavaScript ES2021 (ES12) Features to Look for
One important thing about WeakRef and finalizers. The proposal for this feature itself advises not to use them. One reason is that they can be unpredictable. Another one is that they don't really help garbage collection do its job. They can actually make it job harder. You can read more about the reasons in the proposal.
