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.

Parcel CSS: A new CSS parser, compiler, and minifier
I have been using esbuild for a while, and I can say that it's looking like a huge improvement over webpack, snowpack, vite, etc.
I made a web app starter that uses esbuild to bundle a react-redux app [0] and my experience was very positive of the bundler.

I created an esbuild version of one of my existing webpack-using projects.
So I recently created a new version of that which uses esbuild instead, and I was able to get it up and running in <1 day (with 0 esbuild experience): https://github.com/samhuk/tree-starter

Looking for this. html + css rendering through wgpu.
If you were to implement this yourself, i'd look into either swash or cosmic-text for the text rendering stack (this is one of the things you really don't want to write from the ground up). For accessibility, AccessKit has quickly become the standard for communicating with crossplatform accessibility APIs in rust GUI. lightningcss (or its lower level counterpart cssparser) are both decent options for CSS parsing. Taffy handles some of what browsers offer for a layout engine, but is still being worked on.

We're building a browser when it's supposed to be impossible
Libraries for a lot of this stuff exist (albeit in many cases not very mature yet):
- https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-text does text layout (which Taffy explicitly considers out of scope)
- https://github.com/AccessKit/accesskit does accessibility
- https://github.com/servo/rust-cssparser does value-agnostic CSS parsing (it will parse the general syntax but leaves value parsing up to the user, meaning you can easily add support for whatever properties you what). Libraries like https://github.com/parcel-bundler/lightningcss implement parsing for the standard css properties.
- There are crates like https://github.com/BurntSushi/bstr and https://docs.rs/wtf8/latest/wtf8/ for working with non-unicode text
We are planning to add a C API to Taffy, but tbh I feel like C is not very good for this kind of modularised approach. You really want to be able to expose complex APIs with enforced type safety and this isn't possible with C.
