The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

What's the best way to generate WASM programmatically?
Though looking at the deprecation PR in parity-wasm, it looks like the reason they abandoned it is because they switched to wasm-encoder so I guess that's probably what you should be using instead.

Is WebAssembly Text (WAT) Just Another IR?
WAT is the text encoding of WASM so converting between the two is trivial and tools like wasm-tools to move between one and the other. The one thing to note is that symbols are usually stripped in wasm binaries so going backward can generate text where names are mostly indexes (besides exports).

What's the best way to generate WASM programmatically?
parity-wasm is deprecated and Parsing and Generating .wasm Binaries doesn't list anything else.
What are some alternatives?
