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.

AdaCore and Ferrous Systems Joining Forces to Support Rust
I hope someone also picks up the work started in https://project-oak.github.io/rust-verification-tools/ - the idea of having a `cargo verify` tool that supports different backends is great for bridging the academic PoCs with something that an average programmer can integrate into the dev workflow.

I rewrote my CV in Typst and I'll never look back
You may want to try https://github.com/tectonic-typesetting/tectonic, which downloads files from TeXLive on-demand.

bard 2.0
v2 has improved TeX engine lookup, improved PDF template look&feel, proper support for MS Windows (where it comes integrated with the Tectonic engine) and a few more new features.

[Media] Version 0.3 of Inlyne - An interactive markdown renderer written entirely in Rust
There's https://github.com/tectonic-typesetting/tectonic but I think the issue with that idea is that sure, you can re-implement TeX (it's sufficiently simple) in Rust and then run LaTeX packages on top of it, but then you're back to LaTeX and all its weirdness so you haven't really gained anything compared to LaTeX itself.

Arch for science
In terms of TeX, I would recommend taking a look at tectonic, a self-contained TeX distribution that auto-installs packages you need when you need them, and “just works” when you call the binary to compile… Because screw messing around with package managers, CTAN and XeTeX. I’ve been using it for around a year and it’s so much easier than any other TeX distribution.

Porting Python reportlab code to Rust
For example, you can have your main application in something like Deno/Node/python that acts as a server, and then delegate the actual pdf generation to tectonic (https://github.com/tectonic-typesetting/tectonic) or Typst https://typst.app/blog/2023/beta-oss-launch/

Brian Kernighan adds Unicode support to Awk (May, 2022)
It's sad that Tectonic conversion to Rust[1] was never finished. For now it's just a wrapper around C and C++ code. By far, it was the most promising thing in this distribution.

LaTex alternative/replacement written in Rust?
The only thing I've seen is https://github.com/tectonic-typesetting/tectonic but that's an actual re-implementation of TeX Rust.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing rust-verification-tools and tectonic you can also consider the following projects:
misra-rust - An investigation into what adhering to each MISRA-C rule looks like in Rust. The intention is to decipher how much we "get for free" from the Rust compiler.
miktex - the MiKTeX source code
Rudra - Rust Memory Safety & Undefined Behavior Detection
texlab - An implementation of the Language Server Protocol for LaTeX
klee - KLEE Symbolic Execution Engine
tex-rs - A port of TeX82 to Rust. (WIP)
magmide - A dependently-typed proof language intended to make provably correct bare metal code possible for working software engineers.
Oberon - Oberon parser, code model & browser, compiler and IDE with debugger
line-combination-proofs
arara
electrolysis - Simple verification of Rust programs via functional purification in Lean 2(!)
rpm-ostree - ⚛📦 Hybrid image/package system with atomic upgrades and package layering
