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.

WebAssembly: Adding Python Support to WASM Language Runtimes
Wasmtime's `wasmtime-py` embedding in python has support for Wasm Components: https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime-py#components (disclosure, I helped create it)
The remaining piece of the puzzle would be to create a wit-bindgen guest generator https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wit-bindgen#guests for this build of the python interpreter. You could then seamlessly call back and forth between the host and guest pythons, without even knowing that wasmtime is under the hood.

New package: wasm.el
It's an embedding of the wasm3 library, and it exposes a function, `wasm-test`, that can call a function without arguments from a simple WebAssembly module. I intend to update it to reach feature parity with, for example, the python embedding.

WebAssembly: Adding Python Support to WASM Language Runtimes
PyOdide isn't currently supported outside of browsers, though that might change.
Either way, I couldn't figure out how to do the above sequence of steps with any of the available Python WASM runtimes - they're all very under-documented at the moment, sadly. I tried all three of these:
- https://github.com/wasmerio/wasmer-python
- https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime-py
- https://github.com/wasm3/pywasm3

Interpret Rust with Python
You might look at https://github.com/wasm3/pywasm3 . If nothing else, it’d presumably speed up your interpreter to have bindings to an established C based runtime rather than re implementing the runtime in python
