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.

Emerging Rust GUI libraries in a WASM world
https://github.com/kushalkolar/fastplotlib
Alternatively, try pygfx for ThreeJS graphics in Python leveraging wgpu. It works great in Notebooks through notebook-rfb. https://github.com/pygfx/pygfx
If you're adventurous, figure out how to make pygfx work with webgpu via wasm

Chrome Ships WebGPU
FYI you can already use webgpu directly in python, see https://github.com/pygfx/wgpu-py for webgpu wrappers and https://github.com/pygfx/pygfx for a more high level graphics library

Extending Python with Rust
Rather than using matplotlib, you could try either pygfx (https://github.com/pygfx/pygfx) or fastplotlib (https://github.com/kushalkolar/fastplotlib) to make higher performance graphics using Python.
However, it won't solve your problem of Python not being fast enough doing the calculations.

Extending Python with Rust
I made my own, using WGPU and this basic graphics engine: https://github.com/David-OConnor/graphics_wgpu
Note that there's currently no docs or template/examples, and I'm rapidly breaking the API.
The surface plots are just meshes of a grid divided into triangles.
So, not a plotting lib at all; a flexible 3d and UI lib. Could probably made usable by others with a basic example of how you interact with the render and UI.
What are some alternatives?
