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.

Ask HN: Visualizing software designs, especially of large systems (if at all)?
Very interesting! I'm convinced humans looking at code plots can see things that computers can't. An extension of your idea is to show how code changes over time. Sections that don't change much = "backbone" of system, probably bug-free. New code, or code that changes a lot = "sketchy", might have bugs. Alternatively, show code colored by "quality" i.e. complexity.
Here's my take: https://github.com/johntellsall/shotglass#demo-flask-a-small...

Need to write README but don't know what to say? 7 diagram generators
This is close to my heart :) I've been toying with a codebase visualizer, "Shotglass". It's unique that it shows a pixel _for every single line of code_, thus showing the overall structure. Functions can be individually colored, e.g. to show code complexity.

Ask HN: Visualizing software designs, especially of large systems (if at all)?
In my experience it tends not to be done because there's an inevitable drift between the system as it actually operates and the relevant visualizations and diagrams. I have seen them used as a starting off point at times, although that's also been infrequent.
There is however a growing movement of being able to visualize how a system is functioning at various levels. XState/Statecharts are a good example (https://xstate.js.org/viz/). Another example in the Ops space would be https://github.com/spekt8/spekt8 for K8S. I work at Grafana and we're more or less trying to expose these things in ways that make sense. Our bread and butter is timeseries data but we're adding more in that regard (it's possible to build node graphs from running systems).
