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.

WinUI3 + WebView2
The issue is described here: WebView2 does not support passing in a CoreWebView2Environment · Issue #1170 · microsoft/WindowsAppSDK (github.com)

Ask HN: What is the best way to build a desktop app in Windows in 2023?
.. and how many of the Microsoft applications actually use WinUI3? As far as I can tell they're doing their own thing (Office) or are Electron (Teams) or, at least in Windows 10, haven't actually been updated from WinForms.
The overhead of WinUI3 is pretty huge. The visual designer, a winning feature of Visual Studio for decades, is AWOL. Why? It's XAML, the same as the previous XAML designer! It's just .. broken?
The backward compatibility story is a disaster: you can get stuck in the UWP sandbox https://github.com/microsoft/WindowsAppSDK/issues/1780
What's the big Microsoft WinUI3 flagship app, then? Something people are actually using? Rather than just a few system dialogues. (How many Win11 settings pop up a Win32 dialogue box, still?)

For the past year and a half I've been working on Wintoys, an app that let's you experience Windows in your way and keep it fresh everyday while having everything you need in one place
Development for WinAppSdk and WinUI 3 is also very slow and Microsoft seems to not want to push it and invest more developers into it for some reason. They try to improve the framework, is just it's a small team. For example it was a headacke to apply the Mica backgrop and required unmanaged code, they made it simpler and reduced it to a line of code but it took months. I have 2 out of 7 issues fixed on WinAppSdk repository and 0 out of 8 issues fixed in the WinUI 3 repository (some of the older than a year). This are just my issues, there are many other opened by other developers. So yeah, it wasn't fun at all. PoweshellSDK had an issue with the Import-Module command and it wasn't fixed for more than a year and probably won't be ever fixed, but I'm glad I found a workaround, even more clean and more safe, otherwise I couldn't have added the posibility to uninstall and change Store apps.

Has MAUI improved last couple of months?
As far as I know, there are still some issues with OIDC integration. See this, for example.

File Explorer will soon be a Windows App SDK app
this I'm interested in. WinAppSDK is open source.

Why Modern Software Is Slow
I think the issue is actually the sandboxing and other stuff. WinRT StorageProvider API is known to be extremely slow and NTFS / Windows IO subsystem is itself already quite slow compared to UNIX. The issue IIRC is that StorageProvider is designed for sandboxing and the way they implemented that involves doing RPCs to other processes. So there's probably some heavy context switching involved, but it's architectural, and so the voice recorder was never fixed.

WPF or WinForms
Disclaimer: I work for Microsoft. I even work on WindowsAppSDK just not the WinUI parts. People far more graphically inclined and talented than I handle that 😀

Reusing static constraints with multiple generics
Trying to extend this https://github.com/fsharp/fslang-suggestions/issues/1089 to have two generics:

Can I call method on the output of the pipe?
Not currently supported but it's an open language suggestion that's likely to end up in F#. https://github.com/fsharp/fslang-suggestions/issues/506

Need help with Azure.Storage.Blobs to do simple enumerate blob items
I found this post (https://github.com/fsharp/fslang-suggestions/issues/975) which is about the same thing, but I'm confused as to what the final resolution was. There was mention of a taskSeq, but I can't find much info on that.

What are the features you're looking forward to in the next version of Fsharp?
"Blessed" literals: only FSharp.List and System.Array have a built-in collection syntax in the language ([ ] and [| |]). Only FSharp.List has a special pattern matching constructor (::). The language itself shouldn't favor a particular type over another: it should be possible, at the library level, to write the same code but using different collection types (related discussion here).

F# (in)compatibility
I mostly write F# so I can only speak for F#, but if you want you can create a module which extends Seq to add the OCaml names. I suspect the same is possible in OCaml. The authors are not trying to impede compatibility, but compatibility is not a goal. If you value compatibility, or adhering to ML norms, and you use F#, I recommend you (kindly) advocate for it in relevant issues on the F# language discussion repo. https://github.com/fsharp/fslang-suggestions/issues
