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.

I'm really liking Racket but...
I don't think there's any mature projects that compile to WASM yet, but there's been some steady progress on that front. There's also a dialect of Racket that transpiles to Javascript and a #lang that lets you write Javascript using Racket syntax.

The github page has more information: https://github.com/racketscript/racketscript
And to answer the questions every Schemer will have, no the runtime doesn't yet support tail calls or continuations.
- Anyone aware of Racket projects that are in need of contributors? I am experienced in PL design and have two months worth of spare time. I have never contributed to an opensource project before besides taureg.

People that are creating programming languages. Why aren't you building it on top of Racket?
https://github.com/racketscript/racketscript It's still labeled experimental but in much the same way that Gmail is still technically in beta.

Annotated implementation of microKanren: an embeddable logic language
Not really production, but probably THE most impressive biomedicine research work I've seen (and I'm an academic MD):
https://github.com/webyrd/mediKanren
This is a FOL theorem prover that uses medical research articles as terms. They use it to do genetics and drug repurposing metaresearch. It's like the wet dream of all the biomed machine learning fanboys out there, except that:
1. it's not machine learning
and
2. it really works

William Byrd on Logic and Relational Programming, MiniKanren (2014)
Hi Kamaal!
I know Cisco is using core.logic, which is David Nolen's Clojure variant of miniKanren, in their ThreatGrid product. I think the Enterprisey uses of mediKanren are a bit different than the purely relational programming that I find most interesting, though.
Having said that, we are now on our second generation of mediKanren, which is software that performs reasoning over large biomedical knowledge graphs:
https://github.com/webyrd/mediKanren/tree/master/medikanren2
mediKanren is being developed by the Hugh Kaul Precision Medicine Institute at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (HKPMI). HKPMI is run by Matt Might, who you may know from his work on abstract interpretation and parsing with derivatives, or from his more recent work on precision medicine. mediKanren is part of the NIH NCATS Biomedical Data Translator Project, and is funded by NCATS:
https://ncats.nih.gov/translator
Greg Rosenblatt, who sped up Barliman's relational interpreter many order of magnitude, has been hacking on dbKanren, which augments miniKanren with automatic goal reordering, stratified queries/aggregation, a graph database engine, and many other goodies. dbKanren is the heart of mediKanren 2.
I can imagine co-writing a book on mediKanren 2, and its uses for precision medicine...
Cheers,
--Will

Bertrand Might: Life, legacy and next steps
The Precision Medicine Institute that I now run produces mediKanren: https://github.com/webyrd/mediKanren
It's an open source logical reasoning engine (read: 1960's AI) for drug repurposing that we deploy routinely to help patients.
There is always a need for better relationalization of biological data sets that feed such tools too.
For example, SemMedDB is really showing its age for NLP of the scientific literature and yet it is still astonishingly useful for helping patients even as is.
