Github-Ranking VS hackage-server

5th highest number of stars of any repo on GitHub 🙃

This explains the uneven distribution of Haskell applications, but this does not explain why the distribution is more even in other languages. But is that even the case? You mention Python, and Python happens to be THE language of choice for data science projects, so I would expect to also see an uneven distribution there. And Java happens to be THE language of choice for writing Android applications, so I would expect an uneven distribution there too. And Rust is a systems programming language, so I would expect games and other things that really need to run fast. Let's look at lists of popular projects by language:

The repo I chose was Github-Ranking, a repo to check the most starred and forked GitHub repos of the day. The link can be found here: https://github.com/EvanLi/Github-Ranking. I picked this repo because I've never explored the most popular repos before and this allowed me to see what a lot of people are working on.

Clocking in at 190K Github stars React's github ranking is easily ranked in the top 10.

Here's a few other tools that are written in Perl, sorted by GitHub popularity: https://github.com/EvanLi/Github-Ranking/blob/master/Top100/...

Actually, that repo has lists like this for most languages: https://github.com/EvanLi/Github-Ranking

Very cool! Is this open-source? It would be cool to add a few sources to this (like https://hackage.haskell.org).

3. https://hackage.haskell.org is the primary place

I used to see pandoc described as a "virus that makes people want to install Haskell", but I think someone must've figured out binary distribution.

The closest analogue to ZIO is probably the RIO monad + Has* type classes from https://hackage.haskell.org . /package/rio . (But ZIO is a bit richer with the typed error channel.)

Not yet, first hackage-server has to be updated to Cabal-3.8.1.0, see this hackage-server ticket

So I was working on this tool pysearch.com for doing deep semantic searches of python docs by program analysis inferred functionality when I noticed that every library's docs seem to be in a different format hosted in a different source. This would be fine if there was also a standard format hub for all the libraries on pypi or something, but it looks like even readthedocs doesn't contain everything. I find this a bit odd given the existence of tools like pydoc for doing something like this locally. Originally, I was hoping to find something like hackage for haskell, as I was hoping to build a natural language version of hoogle. In the meantime I've gotten pysearch to work by setting up custom rules for each doc, but this is kinda unsustainable.

The other source of haskell documentation is hackage, which features both libraries and higher-level GHC modules. Using hoogle (!hoogle or !hgl in DDG), you can search these docs by module name, function name, or even type signature.
