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.

Photon: Rust/WebAssembly image processing library faster than VIPs and PIL
That's some pretty aggressive editorializing in the title. The linked page doesn't once use "faster", "VIPS" or "PIL".
The page does link to benchmarks [0] but Photon isn't the clear victor. It's slower on the PNG benchmark but faster on the JPG benchmark. There are no benchmarks for PIL.
It's an interesting project but the differentiating factor is more portability and security than speed. WASM means that this can be run in a nice sandbox where its ability to harm the system is drastically reduced.

Building an online image compressor
My first implementation was based on photon_rs, a Rust based web assembly library for image processing. It worked pretty well, but it was slower than OP website. Without digging much it seems logical since photon isn’t optimized for performance.

Image Compression Library
What you describe reminded me of photon. Check out the website. If there isn't an overlap of functionality then you can definitely integrate it into your own site.
- Off my chest: When are some of you browser devs gonna give us native image scaling? This is the best we got ATM.

Monitoring UX in Single Page Applications
For the image, you are able to either use your webcam to take a photo, or upload a photo of your own before moving onto the filters. Image filtering is included in most image manipulation libraries. I had used ImageMagick before, but had a terrible time with it. I wanted to find a better way to do Instagram-like filtering. I came across Photon, a high performance image processing library written in Rust and can be compiled to WebAssembly, and there was already a React demo so it was easy to integrate. Once you choose the filter you want, you move onto the decoration stage.
