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.

Haskell adoption is higher than I expected, what can we do to get it to top 10 languages.
Don't get me wrong, we figured it all out, and currently we use Aeson fork as we needed this: https://github.com/haskell/aeson/pull/926, as the default behaviour didn't work with Swift, and I wasn't sure if it's worth spending any time completing it...

How would aeson redesign FromJSON without intermediate Value?
Simdjson-based Hermes is able to decode JSON significantly faster while still using an intermediate representation: https://github.com/haskell/aeson/pull/923

Text Maintainers: text-utf8 migration discussion - Haskell Foundation
Similar scan is already in aeson https://github.com/haskell/aeson/blob/master/src/Data/Aeson/Parser/Internal.hs#L322-L335 where the unsafeDecodeASCII is used I mentioned in my previous comment.

High-performance JSON codec
Well, the aeson’s ffi code is written by me: https://github.com/haskell/aeson/commit/2f24e555d86a36fdda6d4cad79976004b382ab3b

Crypton is forked from cryptonite with the original authors permission
There was also the Haskell-crypto fork (https://github.com/haskell-crypto/cryptonite) which was done for similar reasons - will this fork include any of its changes? I can’t remember if much was actually done in that project, most of the work has been on the libsodium library. It would be good to have just one place for all of this, perhaps Kazu could consider moving crypton into that organisation and helping contribute.

[ANNOUNCE] GHC 9.2.2 is now available!
GHC 9.2 support for cryptonite is added in this PR: https://github.com/haskell-crypto/cryptonite/pull/354 So that should be fixed soon i guess..
