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.

What libraries are missing?
https://github.com/cockroachdb/apd is currently the best implementation in the ecosystem (performance, correctness). Have you already evaluated it?
-
Lack of Decimal Support
FWIW I think cockroachdb/apd is the best third party option. While building bojanz/currency I've evaluated and benchmarked the others and found them either less maintained, slower, or both.
-
Small Fixed-Point Decimals library
I have a package for handling currency amounts and calculations that is based on cockroachdb/apd, in my opinion the best arbitrary-precision decimal implementation in Go right now. So, I can offer a bit of insight.
- cockroachdb/apd v3.0.0
-
Library recommendation -- money calculations, more accurate handling of floats
The best decimal package is still cockroachdb/apd. I wrap it in bojanz/currency for money handling.
-
What libraries from other languages do you wish were ported over into go?
https://github.com/cockroachdb/apd remains the best decimal library for Go (ericlagergren/decimal is faster but unmaintained).
-
currency - Currency amounts and formatting for Go
Note: In benchmarks ericlagergren/decimal was noticeably faster than cockroachdb/apd, but it has known bugs when used with go mod, so I decided to wait and go with cockroachdb/apd for now. The Amount struct wraps the decimal implementation completely, making it easy to do the swap later without breaking BC.

Bare Metal Rust in Android
> At least with a language like Go, it somewhat makes sense, and has been attempted: https://gioui.org/
Gio UI is an immediate-mode UI, and immediate-mode UIs map very nicely to Rust. egui is quite easy to use. https://www.egui.rs/

net/http extension to exchange structs
I've been writing a WASM app using gio & I found myself wanting for a simplified web library. In addition I drew some inspiration from leptos server functions. A friend of mine mentioned it has some similarities with next.js

htmx/Go experiences?
I am building the same but with golang and https://gioui.org/

Gonum & Gonum/Plot v0.13.0
This release of Gonum/plot is in sync with Gonum-v0.13.0 and updates the vg/vggio backend to the latest Gio API.
-
Are there any popular computer applications written in Golang?
Historically, C++. Today, (unfortunately) a lot of (non-game) desktop apps are written in HTML/CSS/JS using Electron. There are projects like Fyne and GIO that aim to make Go a viable language for building large-scale performant desktop apps. My open-source hobby project Supersonic is a music player app built using Fyne.

Is Go appropriate to develop Linux Desktop app ?

gomobile no longer maintained
It’s actually extremely easy, if you use one of the actively developed options like https://fyne.io or https://gioui.org for example. Flutter’s Dart may help with real-time hacking of UI but Go produces better code in the long run!
