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.

GameScripter.JS β write games in JS, compile to tiny executable
How tiny is the output? What is the API? (I couldn't find any documentation. I thought maybe it's in the Help menu in the app itself but all I found was this https://i.imgur.com/6puOMIe.png - On that note, what level of JS is supported? As far as I can tell it uses this https://github.com/c-smile/sciter-js-sdk which is based on Fabrice Bellard's QuickJS ) Is there sound?

Zig Build System Internals
Having normal procedural language for build automation is of course useful. That's for those 10% of cases when "standard" build DSL (make,CMake,etc.) simply do not have facilities.
But the rest of 90% tasks should have compact (easily readable) definitions.
I personally found that Premake5 has quite good balance for these tasks.
Premake files are plain .lua files and due to Lua syntax they are easily readable. And if needed you can call from them procedures defined in again Lua.
So typical project (multiplatform) definition looks pretty readable, for example one project from Sciter SDK:

Tauri β Electron alternative written in Rust
Note Tauri is full fledged Client/Server with WebView (client) is running in separate process with RPC between UI process and Rust code (Server).
For the comparison:
Standalone Sciter (scapp.exe, https://github.com/c-smile/sciter-js-sdk/tree/main/bin) takes ~8 MB of RAM (with minimal Cairo and GDI backends).
That's 20 times less than even Tauri.
WebView based solutions are not suitable for applets - small portable desktop applications.

scapp.exe ( Standalone sciter engine ) takes 45 Mb showing its default "about" document.

Sciter, the 5 MB Electron alternative, has switched to JavaScript
It does support , with limited support but still.
See: https://github.com/c-smile/sciter-js-sdk/tree/main/samples/c...
Sciter also supports immediate mode painting on any element (like in DearIMGUI):
element.paintBackground = function(gfx) {

What version of react native is compatible with react native web?
I am following a tutorial that is 4 years old that states that react native 0.55.4 is last compatible with react native web and anything later is not compatible yet. He showed the documentation page in the video as his source.

Rust and Next.js everywhere?
Personally, if you're trying to find a stack that can be applied everywhere with Next.js as your chosen framework, best bet would be React Native Web or similar. Which would let you share the maximum amount of frontend code between Web, iOS, and Android. Then you could reach for electron (barf) or something to bundle it for desktop if that was a requirement.

Here's what I'd like to do as a hobby project... what should I learn?
Some of the top cross-platform frameworks do have support for web targets. React-Native-Web and Flutter on the Web are both ways to target the web with your cross-platform app.

Which is the best lib/framework option for a single code base for web, Android & iOS?
If you want a single codebase for web and mobile I would look into react-native and react-native-web. You could probably code the web app with react-native-web, make it responsive and build it through react-native for mobile. Designing an app for mobile and for web can lead to significant difference though since the experience is quite different. Some things might make sense for a mobile and not for a desktop or the opposite. So I wouldn't discard completely the idea of having separate codebases. Highly depends on the app though, totally valid for many use cases.

Need an advice for frontend framework (beginner in frontend development)
Another fun thing you could do is build it for mobile + web using React-Native through Expo or manually with https://necolas.github.io/react-native-web/

I lost $209,640 of my own money trying to start a business
If you're using Expo (which I assume most are on RN) they have web support. This is via React Native Web, which is a separate project if you wanted to use that directly too.
Personally though, I've found the DX of Flutter far above RN. I always had random packages break on RN that I had to fix every time, while with Flutter most of what you need is already included in the framework, including a component UI library for Android and iOS.

I made a template for making full-stack universal(web + mobile) apps! (tRPC, Expo, Next, Solito, Tamagui, Clerk Auth, Prisma!)
So the RN-R part is done by https://necolas.github.io/react-native-web/ and it's really good! However, there are some code that is kind of outside of the scope of React. Ie. Navigation, that's more in the realm of Next.

No, React Native is not the future
I don't have personal experience with this, but React Native Web claims to solve this issue: https://necolas.github.io/react-native-web/, not sure if anyone has had experience with this. Of course, you will have issues with dependency hell/package maintenance.
Another great option seems to be Flutter web. I was really impressed by the "batteries included" approach to Flutter, and Dart has a pretty comprehensive standard library. This is in contrast to React's "just find a random package on npm and pray it doesn't bite you in the future."
Obviously rewrites are expensive, but I personally think both approaches are worth considering versus abandoning native components completely. WebView isn't without problems (and also, you don't need React Native to use WebView).
