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.

Isolates, MicroVMs, and WebAssembly (In 2022)
> Better interoperability
AFAIK, the examples you give all target a basic C ABI [0] or can be made to target the same ABI. In Rust, it means targeting wasm32-unknown-emscripten
The Rust team is also working on a "WASM ABI"[1] which would be useful in taking advantage of stuff like multi-value returns, and other compilers could just choose to target that. More likely, the C ABI on WASM will be updated to account for missing features, and that'll be the standard for interoperability in the WASM ecosystem.

Features of a dream programming language: 2nd draft.
C ABI: Compatible with the C language Application Binary Interface (ABI). So code in the language is usable from other languages. Inspired by Zig. Since compiling to WASM is desirable, WASM's C ABI could probably be used, instead of a separate implementation towards the C ABI.

Crates for (mutable) statics with non const initialization.
There is maybe a solution. From what I found the linker will glue constructor functions and they have an associated priority. (look https://github.com/WebAssembly/tool-conventions/blob/master/Linking.md here for the "linking meta data section"). I explored the ldd/wasm source code directory and it looks like there are also destructor functions. I have not found out in which sections such functions should be placed (after 1h of exploration). Would you like to pursue? I am ok to receive pushes or even share owner ship of the repository.

Features of a dream programming language: 2nd draft.
Gradually typed, as types can add boilerplate, create unnecessary friction, obstruct a programmer's tinkering flow-state, and create noise in the code. Counter-inspired by TypeScript, and inspired by Elm and Jai. As many types as possible should be inferred. Inspired by TypeScript but even more inspired by OCaml and ReScript.
