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.

Show HN: TinyWasm – A tiny WebAssembly Runtime written in Rust
Super nice project! I also spent the last month writing a WASM interpreter ( https://github.com/rrampage/wart ) using Java 21. I started it as an excuse to try out the pattern matching in switch / sealed classes in Java. It kind of snowballed in scope and can now run Doom and Waforth ( https://github.com/remko/waforth )! Have not yet tried compiling it to WASM and running it as a meta-circular interpreter.

Bunch of questions about forth
Concerning the point 8. There is an online Forth system demo Thurtle (in the browser) with turtle graphics, which is based on WAForth.

A Dynamic Forth Compiler for WebAssembly
There's a note on the page from 2022-08-19, that a lot has been added to it. It also links to the github page[1] for the up-to-date changes.
I am a Lisp, April, APL/J/BQE, and Forth[2] aficionado. I did some file munging programs in Factor back in 2012 at my job to sort through theater attendance logs in Word to compile statistics.

My history with Forth, and stack machines
My impression so far is (in general), Forth are practically limited to doing embedded/microcontroller development.
For us, web/mobile/desktop app devs, beside:
- 8th (https://8th-dev.com)
- Factor (https://factorcode.org)
Any suggestion which implementation we should look for?
- Forth: The programming language that writes itself: The Web Page
- Retro: A Modern, Pragmatic Forth

Pharo 11, the pure object-oriented language and environment is released!
Factor is also very much worth a look. Forth-style syntax, but with many of the ideas from CL and Smalltalk as well. In fact as a CL fan, I was very impressed by it. It's also quite "batteries included" a la Python.

The toki pona of programming.
Otherwise, and more seriously, I'm not completely sure variables are needed. Factor is quite usable (it's my favorite go-to language if I quickly need to script something), and mostly doesn't have them.
- Forth as an intermediate language

What the hell is Forth? (2019)
Is there any "battery-included" ANS Forth (more or less like Python/Go) which provides access to concurrency, networking, database, GUI, etc?
Not an embedded device programmer, but mostly deals with frontend apps, and occasionally backend, so those are very relevant to me.
Or perhaps use "non-traditional" Forths like 8th (https://8th-dev.com) or Factor (https://factorcode.org)?
