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.

Multi-platform libraries built with Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP)
There's nothing you can do. However, Kotlin's official provides several libraries, so the scope that can be achieved using them is by no means small. Also, AAkira/Kotlin-Multiplatform-Libraries introduces several famous libraries created with Kotlin Multiplatform, which can be helpful. However, it can be quite disappointing when certain environments are not supported. But let's think of it as an opportunity! Let's become the first person to implement it!

Do you use kotlin/js?
Now if you're just writing a crud app (what my hobby project is) and you use compose multiplatform for your UI, SQLDelight for persistence, and one of the many MPP architecture libraries, you don't have to write a wrapper.

How We integrated Kotlin Multiplatform Into Profi
We did encounter some problems as a result of our ignorance. When we started on the project, there was very little information on the implementation of KMM, so we had to solve all of the issues ourselves. The Kotlin Multiplatform community is growing rapidly with more articles and reports appearing at conferences and meetups. There are channels in Slack and Telegram, libraries for Kotlin Multiplatform, and so on, plenty of information sources available.

Byte-Sized Swift: Building Tiny Games for the Playdate
[A Vision for Embedded Swift](https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/main/visions/e...) has the details on this new build mode and is quite interesting.
> Effectively, there will be two bottom layers of Swift, and the lower one, “non-allocating” Embedded Swift, will necessarily be a more restricted compilation mode (e.g. classes will be disallowed as they fundamentally require heap allocations) and likely to be used only in very specialized use cases. “Allocating” Embedded Swift should allow classes and other language facilities that rely on the heap (e.g. indirect enums).
Also, this seems to maybe hint at the Swift runtime eventually being reimplemented in non-allocating Embedded Swift rather than the C++ (?) that it uses now:
> The Swift runtime APIs will be provided as an implementation that’s optimized for small codesize and will be available as a static library in the toolchain for common CPU architectures. Interestingly, it’s possible to write that implementation in “non-allocating” Baremetal Swift.

Borrow Checking Without Lifetimes
I may be out of my depth here as I've only casually used Rust, but this seems similar to Swift's proposed lifetime dependencies[1]. They're not in the type system formally so maybe they're closer to poloneius work

Functional Ownership Through Fractional Uniqueness
Swift recently adopted a region-based approach for safe concurrency that builds on Milano et al’s ideas: https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/main/proposals...

Crafting Self-Evident Code with D
No, it's not. Refcounting CAN be a garbage collection algorithm, but in Swift it's deterministic and done at compile time. Not to mention recently added support for non-copyable types that enforces unique ownership: https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/main/proposals...

Can someone explain how Task really works in terms of threads (I couldnt ask all the questions with the swift team today)?
If the docs do not suffice, read the concurrency proposals of Swift Evolution. The authors describe the semantics in a very detailed way there.
