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.

Deeplearning in Nim?
While indeed we are less people developing stuff in Nim compared to even the Julia community (which itself is of course much smaller than say Python), we do have cover a large amount of the typical needs in the scientific computing domain. And where we miss stuff it's a) easy to wrap C/C++ or b) simply call Julia, R or Python (As a personal reference I'm doing data analysis & numerical physics stuff in context of my PhD in physics and I literally do everything in Nim. The only significant C dependency {and only as a shared lib} I depend on is libhdf5 via nimhdf5).

Stan in Nim?
use Rnim to access the R bindings

Anyone attempted to make Nim serve R's role? How is it currently?
If you're willing to help out, you'll surely be able to do anything you need. If Nim libraries fail, you can also always call R directly from Nim via Rnim!

Generate Python extensions using Nim language
Maybe also of interest is a nascent package for R calling Nim (or vice versa): https://github.com/SciNim/rnim

Nim -- a modern "glue" language like Python
c2nim is a tool to translate ANSI C code to Nim. The output is human-readable Nim code that is meant to be tweaked by hand after the translation process. If you are tired of wrapping C library, you can try futhark which supports "simply import C header files directly into Nim". Similar to futhark, cinterop allows one to interop with C/C++ code without having to create wrappers. nimLUA is a glue code generator to bind Nim and Lua together using Nim's powerful macro. nimpy and nimporter is a bridge between Nim and Python. rnim is a bridge between R and Nim. nimjl is a bridge between Nim and Julia! Last but not least, genny generates a shared library and bindings for many languages such as Python, Node.js, C.

What would you like to see from an R2 / R++ / R#
I am risking to be offtopic, but there is somenthing interesting happening in Nim, where someone wrote a wrapper to R: https://github.com/SciNim/rnim

Anyone attempted to make Nim serve R's role? How is it currently?
I have been using Nim for all of my recent data munging and analysis. There's https://github.com/Vindaar/ggplotnim for plots (among others) and everything else has just been normal code. There's also https://github.com/SciNim/Datamancer if you need something more like tidyverse.

Is Nim right for me?
Check out Datamancer for your Pandas equivalent. If I recall correctly it does have the ability to read/write csv. If that doesn't suite you, there is a Python/Nim bridge called Nimpy. I do a lot of machine learning projects and have to use OpenCV and some other things from python because it doesn't exist yet. It's a pretty damn cool library.

daily report for Nim language
worked on the roadmap https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/19388 (enable -d:nimPreviewFloatRoundtrip and -d:nimPreviewDotLikeOps) and found that an important_packages (datamancer) failed. So I made a PR (https://github.com/SciNim/Datamancer/pull/23). It is not a bug of nimPreviewFloatRoundtrip(It seems like a precision problem to me) so alternatively datamancer can be disabled transiently.

Which dataframe library to use?
There seems to be two major ones for Nim, NimData and Datamancer. Which one is better?
- Polars: Lightning-fast DataFrame library for Rust and Python
What are some alternatives?
genny - Generate a shared library and bindings for many languages.
nimpy - Nim - Python bridge
c2nim - c2nim is a tool to translate Ansi C code to Nim. The output is human-readable Nim code that is meant to be tweaked by hand before and after the translation process.
dtplyr - Data table backend for dplyr
nimLUA - glue code generator to bind Nim and Lua together using Nim's powerful macro
nimskull - An in development statically typed systems programming language; with sustainability at its core. We, the community of users, maintain it.
box - Write reusable, composable and modular R code
Nim - Nim is a statically typed compiled systems programming language. It combines successful concepts from mature languages like Python, Ada and Modula. Its design focuses on efficiency, expressiveness, and elegance (in that order of priority).
ggplotnim - A port of ggplot2 for Nim
nimhdf5 - Wrapper and some simple high-level bindings for the HDF5 library for the Nim language
NimData - DataFrame API written in Nim, enabling fast out-of-core data processing
