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.

An Open-Source, Free Circuit Simulator
When talking about open source tools, here are some:
KiCad may be used as a schematic entry tool for ngspice, especially for discrete or PCB-based electronics. You may watch several simulation examples (including oscillators) here: https://forum.kicad.info/t/simulation-examples-for-kicad-ees.... KiCad integrates ngspice internally, but may also provide external ngspice with netlists for simulation.
Another GUI to ngspice is XSCHEM, especially useful for IC design work (see https://xschem.sourceforge.io/stefan/index.html). Device models are available by the Open Source PDKs from Google/Skywater, Google/GF, or IHP. A growing community is supporting digital, analog or mixed-signal design flows.
QUCS-S (https://ra3xdh.github.io/) is a GUI for ngspice or XyCE.
Indeed device models have to be added manually to the devices in the circuit schematic, when invoking ngspice via KiCad or QUCS-S, except for some basic devices with integrated models. Models are provided by device makers, distributors or web sites like this one: https://ngspice.sourceforge.io/modelparams.html .

A circuit simulator that doesn't look like it was made in 2003
https://ra3xdh.github.io
It's still missing a comprehensive component library like LTspice does, though.
KiCad can also simulate circuits through NGSpice, but it's missing a library and suffers from a lot of quirks.

Also see Qucs-S, which is a GUI for ngspice and a few other engines.
