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.

Programmatically manipulate gazebo via message api?
Definitely, you can find an example of how to do that [here](https://github.com/cambel/ur3/blob/master/ur3_gazebo/src/ur_gazebo/gazebo_spawner.py)

Is ROS only about packages?
I am sorry if the question sounds a little aggressive but I want it to be direct. I was just messing around with ROS and was comparing Neuronbot (Noetic) and Evarobot. I have tried both and Neuronbot is better for dynamic environment (and faster as well). I compared their file structures and some navigation files, and found the only difference to be the larger range of planners Neuronbot was using. There were no custom nodes or services publishing goals, optimizing paths, global planner, etc., in either of them.

What's next? After ROS tutorials
Now I want to do the fun stuff and actually write my own code for a robot. I found evabot which seems to be perfect (it's just a simulation with a 2d navigation tool that doesn't work for dynamic environments). I know a little bit of C++ but prefer developing on Python (hopefully 100% Python). My goal is to make 2d navigation work in a dynamic environment.
What are some alternatives?
