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.

- Which version of Processing should I learn if I want to plot my images with an Axidraw plotter?

My drawing robot in action
I use an opensource tool called Saxi to interface with the plotter. It's super easy! https://github.com/nornagon/saxi

Islamic Geometric Art (Design #30 from Anadolu Selçuklu Sanatinin Geometrik Dili)
The basics: I generated this plot via a program I wrote. That program was written in Javascript, using the p5.js library for drawing lines and stuff, and canvas-sketch to generate the SVG for plotting. I passed the SVG through vpype to merge & sort the lines, and then connected to the AxiDraw using saxi. Not knowing where you're at, those are a good choice to get started—Javascript is an okay language, and p5.js is really good for just getting stuff appearing on the page. And you can just start with the first 2, and add vpype and saxi later.

Gifts for an Axidraw lover
A raspberry pi to run a little server running https://github.com/nornagon/saxi is something I personally use all the time.

An intro to Pen Plotters (2019)
+1 for the AxiDraw. The author does link to this page: https://github.com/beardicus/awesome-plotters which has some good AxiDraw resources.
I became much happier with my setup when I switched to running the AxiDraw from a Raspberry Pi using Saxi: https://github.com/nornagon/saxi

React Virtualisation from scratch
There's a great library call rbush written by mourner which suits our purpose perfectly! Please do give a star to the repository if you like!

There's been 2 downsides with this approach, though. First is that I haven't found any good Javascript libraries for geometry—there are bits and pieces, but nothing good for questions like "what are the intersection points of these 2 circles". So I've been slowly cobbling together my own, and it's working okay. I'm still hoping that there's one out there, and I either haven't found it, or haven't realized it meets my needs. On the plus side, there are a *lot* of JS libraries for different data structures that are helpful—for instance, I used rbush to really speed up finding line intersections on the full graph of what I plotted. I'll use that to find polygons, and the long lines that snake across the whole image.
