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.

Project idea: port markdownlint to Rust
Either https://github.com/chyh1990/yaml-rust or https://github.com/dtolnay/serde-yaml for parsing the YAML config file that markdownlint uses

Borrow checker not liking recursive walk through a HashMap
Here's the Rust code so far -- the commented portions are my intent via pseudocode. This is part of an implementation where there's a _yaml_hash member that points to yaml_rust's underlying LinkedHashMap. (Also using anyhow's bail! and Result.)

How to deal with unmaintained crates? (eg. yaml-rust)
The first thing I did was to find the crate yaml-rust and it seems it isn't really maintained anymore. It has not been updated in a year and there's a lot of PR's and unresolved issues, the CI is broken... So here is my open ended question.

YAML and Configuration Files
Currently, my main concern with YAML is that, by the spec, comments are not attached to a particular node (see https://yaml.org/spec/1.2/spec.html#id2767100). As a result, a lot of YAML parsers (like https://github.com/yaml/libyaml and https://github.com/chyh1990/yaml-rust) only filter out the comments during the parsing phase. This makes it less than ideal for a use-case where the configuration file is expected to be modified by both programs and humans.
TOML makes it more trivial to associate comments with a node. This is mainly because the language is simpler though, as the spec is not explicit about that (https://github.com/chyh1990/yaml-rust).
