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.

Jevko: a minimal general-purpose syntax
The grammar of S-exps on the other hand, I won't quote here, but I assure you it's much more complicated. How much depends on your flavor (Jevko is also simpler in this regard: there is only one flavor, clearly specified).
There is no (intended) ambiguity around whitespace in Jevko: whitespace does not occur explicitly in the grammar. Whitespace characters are just characters. This is the defining feature of the syntax.
For this reason Jevko is more low-level: if you want to treat whitespace in some special way, you have to do that yourself. Although for most use-cases this is very similar and simple, e.g. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33334314
But the point is that you can also leave it as-is, e.g.: https://github.com/jevko/queryjevko.js
or do something else -- it's up to your format.

Syntax Design
Thank you. :)
> I wonder if I should use it for something...
I'd be honored!
A couple of ideas:
How about a simple configuration format? https://gist.github.com/djedr/681e0199859874b3324eaa84192c42... (I should make a library out of this)
Or you can put it in your query strings to make them more humane: https://github.com/jevko/queryjevko.js
Or make up a markup DSL: https://github.com/jevko/markup-experiments#asttohtmltable
Or serialize game objects in your indie game. Or make it the interface of your experimental app. Or use it to shave off a few unnecessary characters off your data: https://jevko.github.io/compactness.html
No parser in your favorite language? A basic one should be only a couple dozen lines!

Jevko: a minimal general-purpose syntax
Here is a toy language that uses Jevko as syntax that I've been hacking on a bit recently: https://github.com/jevko/jevkalk
> is doing? It sure looks to me like it's asking whether a symbol (i.e. indivisible atom) ends with an equal sign, which is semantic gibberish.
There are no symbols or indivisible atoms here.
What's happening here is parsing. `jevkoToHtml` is a kind of parser-transpiler which operates on a syntax tree, rather than a sequence of characters or tokens.
The syntax tree is the output of an earlier stage of parsing, done by the Jevko parser.
So you can think of this as multi-pass parsing, by analogy with multi-pass compilation.
At the same time as this second pass of parsing is happening, translation to HTML is happening as well.
Hope this clarifies things!
