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.

Release announcement: Sphere
Looks really cool! Here's how I do releases: https://github.com/LambdaHack/LambdaHack/issues/76

Game design question: how to base item generation on character skill, but not promote artificial optimal play?
here's the failed commit: https://github.com/LambdaHack/LambdaHack/commit/930dfd46b949d1525e900b997137389a8092305b

[ANN] Monomer, a GUI library for Haskell
I've recently tried that and gave up (https://github.com/LambdaHack/LambdaHack/issues/248). Perhaps it's possible to statically link SDL2, but I learnt it's impossible to statically link the OpenGL and X11 libraries, so you end up with a partially statically linked binary (I didn't manage to obtain even that).

Getting Started...
I did some plotline sketches on the github wiki of my project, but never used them so far. Not much use from the other musings there, either. Instead I tweak the templates for procedural generation directly in the code (game content part of the code, to be precise) and get a lot of mileage out of that. The only page of the wiki I got lots of benefit from is the derivation of the simplified formula for calculating speed, distance and damage of projectile from their weight: https://github.com/LambdaHack/LambdaHack/wiki/Item-statistics#projectile-velocity-and-distance

Getting to 1.0
Around a decade. No, one release per 1-2 years. The differences are quite large, both gameplay and, even more, UI, in particular in using ready fornts, then custom fonts, then many fonts at once. See the changelogs (that's only for the egine, but that's where most of the changes are made): https://github.com/LambdaHack/LambdaHack/releases

Is Haskell capable of this?
Have a look at https://reflex-frp.org/, or https://owickstrom.github.io/gi-gtk-declarative/, they are an interesting and different way of working with UI in a non imperative way.

[ANN] Monomer, a GUI library for Haskell
What are the main differences to and advantages over gi-gtk-declarative?

Apply git patch to package listed in extra-deps in stack build
Yeah, if you are interested enough to check out my PR at gi-gtk-declarative (https://github.com/owickstrom/gi-gtk-declarative/pull/90), then you will see how much I bent over backwards to avoid laying the foundations for an ormolu/fourmolu-like situation. Although, given that the project appears to be the only maintained declarative gui library in Haskell, I think the single-point-of-failure needs to be addressed.
What are some alternatives?
rattletrap - :car: Parse and generate Rocket League replays.
monomer - An easy to use, cross platform, GUI library for writing Haskell applications.
tateti-tateti - Meta tic-tac-toe ncurses game.
nanovg - Antialiased 2D vector drawing library on top of OpenGL for UI and visualizations.
Nomyx - The Nomyx game
reflex - Interactive programs without callbacks or side-effects. Functional Reactive Programming (FRP) uses composable events and time-varying values to describe interactive systems as pure functions. Just like other pure functional code, functional reactive code is easier to get right on the first try, maintain, and reuse.
FunGEn - A lightweight, cross-platform, OpenGL-based 2D game engine in Haskell
static-haskell-nix - easily build most Haskell programs into fully static Linux executables
Skia - Skia is a complete 2D graphic library for drawing Text, Geometries, and Images.
Allure - Allure of the Stars is a near-future Sci-Fi roguelike and tactical squad combat game written in Haskell; please offer feedback, e.g., after trying out the web frontend version at
egui - egui: an easy-to-use immediate mode GUI in Rust that runs on both web and native
