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.

caliburn.Micro: Difference between ActivateItemAsync and ActivateItem ?
It works with ActivateItemAsync but I don´t know if there is a difference that I should be aware of ? They seem to be a bit slow with updating the documentation so I´m a bit nervous about what else might not be updated yet.

Show HN: Async UI: A Rust UI Library Where Everything Is a Future
The programming model reminds me of Rob Eisenberg's older attempts at building UI toolkits ([0]). I don't recall if that was fully async or 'just' using a coroutine/generator-style approach, but it feels similar.
I'm not sure the complexity of doing everything using async constructs is worth it, though. Large-scale UI's built in Qt or Javascript are mostly single threaded anyway, but it's still worthwhile to explore so kudos for that. Looking forward to seeing how far you get.

Learning WPF
Vanilla WPF has a lot of boilerplate and verbose binding expressions. I'd check out an MVVM library like https://caliburnmicro.com/ which has tons of convention-based features and helps maintain the "screens" in your app.

Getting head around {get;set} for C# Models
Your UI needs to bind to something that can programmatically notify it about changes, we call these things View-Models. Usually View-Models implement INotifyPropertyChanged interface (another key interface is INotifyCollectionChanged that is responsible for notifying collection views that number of items is changed and they need to update the UI accordingly). You can do that (the implementation of the interface) manually or use some library to do that for you just to cut some boilerplate code (e.g. ReactiveUI + Fody or Microsoft.Toolkit.MVVM or maybe even this or this).
- Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection to inject ViewModels into Views in AvaloniaUI app?
-
3rd party frameworks to add ease of use to XAML/WPF?
I haven't done WPF/XAML stuff in years but I really liked Caliburn Micro, largely because of the convention-based auto-binding.

Is this the best way to store the view state in Jetpack Compose?
Meanwhile, https://github.com/cashapp/molecule and https://github.com/slackhq/circuit/blob/cfcb6e6a28c53c0715d961917a9a5a9ddc07d5f3/docs/presenter.md?plain=1#L18

Thesis ideas that can improve my knowledge for programming Android apps in Java
You could look at Compose, how the Compose compiler works internally, and perhaps build something unique / non-ui or investigate some other deep aspect of Compose compiler.

Show HN: Async UI: A Rust UI Library Where Everything Is a Future
Today in "HN never used a reactive framework that is not React and is offended when UI is not written with Dear ImGui".
This is literally the exact style of SwiftUI and Jetpack Compose (down to the author having used the term fragment, I sure hope this isn't leftover trauma from being an Android developer), except written in Rust (hence having to deal with lifetimes in the middle, default parameters, lambdas being quite verbose and needing to move things, etc).
Not blocking the UI thread is mandatory if you ever want to make any kind of complex UI. If you're a web dev, well you only have one thread anyways, good luck, if you're on any other platform, interactions _cannot_ ever block the UI (unless you, yourself, update the UI to say it is blocked). Making this async is a good thing.
Stack traces are a problem, but then again they've been a problem in any remotely capable UI toolkit.
With ReactiveCell, it looks surprisingly similar to what Compose does, where modifying a State causes recomposition of everything observing it. Which means that it might be powerful enough one day to do the same things as Molecule (https://github.com/cashapp/molecule), or ComposePPT (https://github.com/fgiris/composePPT), where everything is a potential target and it interops really well with existing toolkits.

Reactive UI state on Android, starring Compose
Recently, Cash App introduced Molecule and suggested that Jetpack Compose can help solve the problem of managing UI state.
What are some alternatives?
Prism - Prism is a framework for building loosely coupled, maintainable, and testable XAML applications in WPF, Xamarin Forms, and Uno / Win UI Applications..
mosaic - An experimental tool for building console UI in Kotlin using the Jetpack Compose compiler/runtime
ReactiveUI - An advanced, composable, functional reactive model-view-viewmodel framework for all .NET platforms that is inspired by functional reactive programming. ReactiveUI allows you to abstract mutable state away from your user interfaces, express the idea around a feature in one readable place and improve the testability of your application.
compose-samples - Official Jetpack Compose samples.
MVVMCross - The .NET MVVM framework for cross-platform solutions, including Android, iOS, MacCatalyst, macOS, tvOS, WPF, WinUI
workflow - A Swift and Kotlin library for making composable state machines, and UIs driven by those state machines.
MVVM Light Toolkit - The main purpose of the toolkit is to accelerate the creation and development of MVVM applications in Xamarin.Android, Xamarin.iOS, Xamarin.Forms, Windows 10 UWP, Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF), Silverlight, Windows Phone.
MVIKotlin - Extendable MVI framework for Kotlin Multiplatform with powerful debugging tools (logging and time travel), inspired by Badoo MVICore library
