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.

Choosing scripting extension - need advice
Pretty surprised no one has suggested starlark - Very nice ergonomics on both the scripting side and the interpreter. Worth a look! Especially nice when combined with starlight

Wazero: The zero dependency WebAssembly runtime
https://github.com/tetratelabs/wazero/releases/tag/v1.7.0
This includes the final release of the new optimizing compiler, which is a big improvement over the previous one.
The new version also adds experimental support for threads and snapshot/restore (setjmp/longjmp).
This is already being used by go-pgquery, all will mean that sqlc won't need to ship to almost copies of wazero (these features had been implemented on a friendly fork, and have now been up-streamed).

WASM by Example
Wazero looks super cool. I saw somewhere that programs can be run with a timeout, which sounds great for sandboxing. The program input is just a slice of bytes [1], so an interesting use case would be to use something like Nats [2] to distribute programs to different servers. Super simple distributed computing!

Show HN: Sqinn-Go is a Golang library for accessing SQLite databases in pure Go
It is slower.
The WASM runtime wazero [1] uses a compiler on amd64 and arm64 (on Linux, macOS, Windows, and FreeBSD), but the current compiler is very fast (at compiling), but very naive (generates less than optimal code).
An optimizing compiler is currently being developed, and should be released in the coming months. I'm optimistic that this compiler will cover the performance gap between WASM and modernc.

Jacobin: Minimal JVM written in Go and capable of running Java 17 classes
I am a fan of the Jacobin project! For your uses, you may also want to consider wazero [1], a pure-go WebAssembly runtime. Full disclosure: I am on the team :)

Val, a high-level systems programming language
No longer does Wasm/WASI need JS host! There are many spec-compliant runtimes built for environments from tiny embedded systems up to beefy arm/x86 racks:
