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.

Using other languages
There's many different languages that can compile to Lua: - TypeScript is probably the most well-known and most compatible language for Lua. The TypeScriptToLua compiler lets you compile TypeScript code into Lua with a mostly 1:1 conversion. You can use the @jackmacwindows/craftos-types and @jackmacwindows/cc-types NPM packages to add typing declarations for CraftOS APIs and modules. Alternatively, use my template repo for a more ready-to-go setup. - Haxe was built with compilation to Lua in mind, and so you can write code for it and have it run just fine in CC. There's some declarations for it available online, and I also have my own typing set for it (which I should really upload somewhere - DM me if you want it for now). - C# can also compile to Lua, but it's a bit tough to get working right in CC, as it has a huge default library and abuses the global table in a way that CC has trouble with. However, it's possible to use, and I've gotten it working in the past (unfortunately, I don't know how anymore). - Urn is a Lisp dialect that was built by two CC devs and was designed to run in CC. However, I wouldn't recommend it unless you're good with functional programming.

C-Lisp Implementations for microcontrollers?
Also, if the microcontroller you're working with is an ESP32 chip, you may be able to use use one of the lisp-to-Lua transpiled languages (urn or fennel) with something like Lua RTOS or NodeMCU. Not entirely sure how well this works in practice, but in theory it should be possible. Of the two, Fennel's probably more likely to behave well when used like this because it's more like a thin translation layer on top of Lua, but Urn's probably going to feel more comfortable to use because it feels like this weird mix of CL and Racket design.

Interesting or distinctive lisps?

Trying Fennel for GTK apps and it's surprisingly good
I don't know how much of reloading you need. I did something like that many moons ago. See here: https://github.com/SquidDev/urn/issues/12

Urn for CC?

2 line tic tac toe
Hissp is a Python library that can compile a whole program into one Python expression.

What's the most hilarious use of operator overloading you've seen?
If you want Python to be as customizable as Lissp, check out Hissp (and Hebigo).

Pythoneers here, what are some of the best python tricks you guys use when progrmming with python
Hissp is really cool for metaprogramming Python. There's also macropy, but it's harder to use.

Lush – Lisp-like language for deep learning designed by Yann LeCun
I prefer https://github.com/gilch/hissp, where Hy has to use shims to pretend statements are expressions, Hissp just targets the expression subset in the first place. (though as you mentioned, hy has a lot of literature and support around it, where as you're going to have to find your own way around hissp)

A Python-compatible statically typed language erg-lang/erg
No shortage of options, e.g. Dg, Mochi, Coconut, and Hebigo (based on Hissp[1]).

Other than having a wider range of libraries and beingthus being more "general purpose" and "practical" is there anything that makes Python an intrinsically better programming language than Lisp?
If you want Lisp metaprogramming plus Python ecosystem, check out Hissp

What are some amazing, great python external modules, libraries to explore?
Hissp is really interesting. Read through the docs and you'll understand Python more deeply. It works well with Toolz and Pyrsistent.
