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.

Note, this is called flow-sensitive typing (also called type narrowing) and I think that typescript does it.

A model checker can do that!
See this
https://model-checking.github.io/kani/tutorial-kinds-of-fail...
Other techniques are also possible
https://github.com/viperproject/prusti-dev#quick-example
(Here I could link a lot of things, I just selected two Rust projects to illustrate)
This works better if you are able to provide contracts in your API that says which guarantees you provide. Alternatively, asserts are useful too.

Programming Languages Going Above and Beyond
You might be interested in the Prusti project, which statically checks for absence of reachable panics, overflows etc. It also allows user-defined specifications such as pre and post-conditions, loop body invariants, termination checking and so on.

Trying to find a crate that allows you to constrain the value of arguments in various ways via a proc macro
This is called refinement types and prusti might be the project you saw.

But there's also a lot of exciting work around formal verification like Prusti.

Is there something like "super-safe" rust?

Prop v0.42 released! Don't panic! The answer is... support for dependent types :)
Wow that sounds really cool! I'm not an expert but does that mean that one day you could implement dependend types or refinement types in Rust as a crate ? I currently only know of tools like: Flux Creusot Kani Prusti

Prusti: Static Analyzer for Rust
And have it checked at compile time that the assertion holds! Which is a bit like Liquid Haskell in capability: https://ucsd-progsys.github.io/liquidhaskell/
... and now I just noticed that prusti has a crate prusti_contracts that can do the same thing!! https://github.com/viperproject/prusti-dev/blob/master/prust...
Now I'm wondering which tool is more capable (as I understand, they leverage a SMT solver like Z3 to discharge the proof obligations, right?)

You may want to try https://github.com/tectonic-typesetting/tectonic, which downloads files from TeXLive on-demand.

bard 2.0
v2 has improved TeX engine lookup, improved PDF template look&feel, proper support for MS Windows (where it comes integrated with the Tectonic engine) and a few more new features.

[Media] Version 0.3 of Inlyne - An interactive markdown renderer written entirely in Rust
There's https://github.com/tectonic-typesetting/tectonic but I think the issue with that idea is that sure, you can re-implement TeX (it's sufficiently simple) in Rust and then run LaTeX packages on top of it, but then you're back to LaTeX and all its weirdness so you haven't really gained anything compared to LaTeX itself.

Brian Kernighan adds Unicode support to Awk (May, 2022)
> He says he wanted to try "XeTeX" (which supports Unicode) but "...I was going to download it as an experiment and they wanted 5 gigabytes and 5 gigabytes at the particular boonies place I'm living would...mmm..not be finished yet!"
He can try "Tectonic" [0] - a modern XeTeX based TeX/LaTeX distribution that installs a minimum system and then downloads and installs dependencies on-demand. Tectonic is written in C and Rust [1].
It's sad that Tectonic conversion to Rust[1] was never finished. For now it's just a wrapper around C and C++ code. By far, it was the most promising thing in this distribution.
[1] https://github.com/tectonic-typesetting/tectonic/issues/459
This has been done and yes people should switch to this. "Tectonic automatically downloads support files so you don’t have to install a full LaTeX system in order to start using it. If you start using a new LaTeX package, Tectonic just pulls down the files it needs and continues processing."

LaTex alternative/replacement written in Rust?
The only thing I've seen is https://github.com/tectonic-typesetting/tectonic but that's an actual re-implementation of TeX Rust.
What are some alternatives?
