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.

Swift Achieved Dynamic Linking Where Rust Couldn't
But you don't have only Linux, you have (and probably first) OSX and/or Windows and then Linux, and you need an API that works well in that case. Being an in-process dll/so plugin, while fraught with perils gets you to avoid other issues (state, health, restart, identity, etc.)
Also sometimes you don't have a choice, but have to make a dll, for example:
https://github.com/steinbergmedia/vst3sdk or https://ae-plugins.docsforadobe.dev/ and many others. Sometimes it's the only viable choice.
(I wish most have used grpc/flatbuffers/whatever to communicate, but then every RPC call have to be checked/retried/handled, and or shared memory well handled, with (?) locks, etc. - not a trivial thing for someone who is deeply specialized in making a very good effect/renderer/etc instead of dealing with this extra complexity on top).

is it possible to write a DAW (digital audio workstation) or VSTs with Nim? any audio software, in general
Yeah, you can use nordaudio which wraps PortAudio which has support for every major audio back-end. As for writing a VST you may have to find a way to wrap or interface with Steinberg's SDK. MIDI support is possible by using an RtMIDI wrapper, which I haven't linked because there are a few of them out there of varying quality and I don't know which is best because I just use ALSA directly for my purposes.

How hard is it to make a VST plugin? Whether a instrument or effect.
You can read the VST3 SDK manual for yourself here https://steinbergmedia.github.io/vst3\_doc/vstsdk/index.html and access the source here: https://github.com/steinbergmedia/vst3sdk.

Question for programmers in this group: how do you incorporate programming in music and the other way around?
You can do VST3 as GPL. They dual license it. Lots of legalese to read but definitely an option. https://github.com/steinbergmedia/vst3sdk/issues

Design and Juce
If you're keen to stay with HTML/CSS-like UI, then you might want to look at react-juce, which is a React frontend for JUCE. It will likely be more familiar to you than using JUCE directly, though it is not the same as using actual HTML/CSS.

Elementary Audio: a modern platform for writing high performance audio software
It's probably helpful to have some background context for the development of this
The author of this library is also the author of the React JUCE renderer. It's a toolkit that re-uses React Native's rendering engine to allow you to use JS and React to render JUCE components:
https://www.nickwritesablog.com/blueprint-a-juce-rendering-b...
https://github.com/JoshMarler/react-juce
So at this point, you have a (presumably) C++ JUCE app that is using JS/TS to render the UI. Why not work to move DSP stuff into JS as well, so that you're gluing minimal bits of C++ together?
It's not a far leap from there to here when you follow this down the road.
