The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

Apologies in advance for disappointing a few people but the [ad] part in the title doesn't mean Automatic Differentiation but rather means "advertisement".
Let's Program a Calculus Student II: Turning Symbolic Differentiation Automatic
1 project | /r/haskell | 10 May 2022

Hi everybody! A couple weeks ago, I made a blog post talking about how recursion and pattern matching could be used to translate Calculus formulas into Haskell. This is a follow-up exploring how to use automatic differentiation to calculate those same derivatives as an example of cool stuff that polymorphism allows us to do. (I learned this idea from the ad package and really fell in love with how elegant it is)
