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.

Lottie under the hood
Actually, that's not entirely accurate. The lottie-web library itself doesn't support rendering to WebGL. However, there is a package called canvaskit-wasm that wraps Skia (a graphics engine) with WebAssembly (wasm). This package includes a module called skottie which supports rendering animations into a WebGL surface. However, there is a drawback with this approach: using wasm requires loading a relatively large package, and it's uncertain whether all features are supported correctly, as the official compatibility table that tracks lottie support on different platforms does not include skottie.

Due to popular demand, here’s part 2
The imgs are mainly used by Tencent QQ and Baidu Tieba users. QQ and Tieba compress imgs by default, so the popular imgs (in China we call them "屌图" or "表情包") would be compressed million of times during the spreading, causing the super low quality. These APPs on Android are using Skia for image processing, which suffering from a legendary bug: result would be more green. The bug was fixed in 2016: https://github.com/google/skia/commit/c7d01d3e1d3621907c27b283fb7f8b6e177c629d

Game design question: how to base item generation on character skill, but not promote artificial optimal play?
here's the failed commit: https://github.com/LambdaHack/LambdaHack/commit/930dfd46b949d1525e900b997137389a8092305b

[ANN] Monomer, a GUI library for Haskell
I've recently tried that and gave up (https://github.com/LambdaHack/LambdaHack/issues/248). Perhaps it's possible to statically link SDL2, but I learnt it's impossible to statically link the OpenGL and X11 libraries, so you end up with a partially statically linked binary (I didn't manage to obtain even that).

Getting Started...
I did some plotline sketches on the github wiki of my project, but never used them so far. Not much use from the other musings there, either. Instead I tweak the templates for procedural generation directly in the code (game content part of the code, to be precise) and get a lot of mileage out of that. The only page of the wiki I got lots of benefit from is the derivation of the simplified formula for calculating speed, distance and damage of projectile from their weight: https://github.com/LambdaHack/LambdaHack/wiki/Item-statistics#projectile-velocity-and-distance

Getting to 1.0
Around a decade. No, one release per 1-2 years. The differences are quite large, both gameplay and, even more, UI, in particular in using ready fornts, then custom fonts, then many fonts at once. See the changelogs (that's only for the egine, but that's where most of the changes are made): https://github.com/LambdaHack/LambdaHack/releases
