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.

Second-Guessing the Modern Web
I've run into this same issue when developing a DSL for generating language bindings and doing data serialization. Not having compile-time type safety is such a pain.
So I'm extending the language to feature statically typed string templates as well. It currently targets (generates) C++, but I'll add other language targets in the future.
It's still a work in progress but I just flipped the repository public in case you want to follow along as I work: https://github.com/dpemmons/typedef

Dependency management fatigue, or why I forever ditched React for Go+Htmx+Templ
> JSX is a really elegant way to avoid templating, but we're back to templating with HTMX
Not necessarily. There are libraries in all mainstream languages that let you embed HTML generation directly in your backend server itself, without using a templating engine. Some examples:
Python: https://htpy.dev/
Scala: https://com-lihaoyi.github.io/scalatags/
OCaml: https://yawaramin.github.io/dream-html/ (that's mine)
> Routing, state management, auth, components, theming, API access, and more are all still problems that people add libraries for and those problems don't go away
Actually they kinda do go away. Have you ever tried Ruby on Rails? It does all this out of the box.

Second-Guessing the Modern Web
Nowadays I highly recommend HTML embedding libraries directly in the programming language. E.g. ScalaTags https://com-lihaoyi.github.io/scalatags/ or (my own) https://github.com/yawaramin/dream-html
Yes, you give up the ability of designers and frontend-only people to easily work with the HTML templates. But in exchange you get quite a lot.
