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.

Introducing ROSboard: Visualizations in the web browser
I’m the author of ROSshow (GitHub - dheera/rosshow: Visualize ROS topics inside a terminal with Unicode/ASCII art 3), which lets you visualize ROS topics with ASCII art.

Telnet Mapscii.me
I do something very similar in ROSshow for NavSatFix (GPS) messages: https://github.com/dheera/rosshow
https://github.com/dheera/rosshow/raw/master/screenshot3.png...
It also has a pure ASCII mode:
https://github.com/dheera/rosshow/raw/master/screenshot3-asc...
Unfortunately this utility isn't really usable outside of the context of robotics and ROS but one could extract the map rendering functionality and create a separate utility out if it if they wished.
The main difference in approach between this and Mapscii is that I actually just convert raster map tiles from OSM instead of using the vector data.

Building Rich Terminal Dashboards
I built a visualization tool for ROS topics that uses Braille to achieve a dot-based interface in the terminal:
https://github.com/dheera/rosshow
I imagine a lot of it could also be re-used in creating terminal dashboards for other purposes.

Is there a library that can give python-prompt-toolkit like completion for TUI?

Show HN: Replbuilder, quickly build a Python REPL CLI prompt
> The purpose is not to do this however, the goal for a repl cli is usually to invoke a set of particular, already implemented commands, not on the fly python input and output. The implementation will be predefined and packaged, repl are only used to run a list of specific commands with arguments that implementation has already defined.
That's a very strange definition for a REPL, I would just call that an (interactive) CLI. Maybe that's why you couldn't find anything when you were doing your search? I used python-prompt-toolkit [0] when building such interfaces. pgcli [1] is an example of such an interface built with prompt-toolkit.
It has a lot of nice autocomplete and readline emulation options. Maybe it's something you can integrate with your project.

TUI library with Sixel support?
Euporie uses prompt_toolkit as its TUI library. prompt_toolkit does not specifically support terminal graphics, but I've written various of custom components and modifications to enable images to be displayed using terminal graphics.

Why is the terminal input so weird?
That bothered me too, the default function for Ctrl-W in ipython is unix-word-rubout from python-prompt-toolkit [1], which uses spaces for word boundaries. You can rebind it to backward-kill-word so it uses "not a letter nor a digit" as a word boundary.
Here's a gist with my config (also binds shift-left/right arrow to move to previous space instead of visual select): https://gist.github.com/fratajczak/64e32421a43d3b8194d0409ce...

improved repl for lua?
When coding in python I've used ptpython repl based on prompt-toolkit which has been used in numerous CLI programs https://github.com/prompt-toolkit/python-prompt-toolkit/blob/master/PROJECTS.rst. I've also used mycli from that page. I've really enjoyed the UX of these. In addition to the syntax highlighting, auto/tab completions, (and maybe other enjoyable features) the vi-mode is amazingly helpful (for us vi folks) (it's probably got emacs bindings too). I would love to have all of this in a repl for lua.

A simple tui to launch gzdoom mods
That's an interesting approach. I was also thinking of using a more sophisticated framework than whiptail, maybe the PromptToolkit. I guess it then would be more similar to the idea of using a text editor. I certainly do think a TUI may be overkill yet it was also a good excuse to practice some bash scripting for me.
