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.

  • Is this meta-authentication system possible in Haskell

    If you want me to go into more detail after you've given it a go, let me know. There are a few free monad libraries out there. I think the best place to start is https://hackage.haskell.org/package/free, because it is the least cushy library, and so you can learn how they work internally etc. Later you might try algebraic effects as a backup.
  • Stack-safety for free?

    That's an awesome tagline! I have a Haskell background and was alluding to "Monads for free" from the free package when picking the title "Stack-safety for free?" Alluding to Rust's "fearless concurrency" seems so much more appropriate though.
  • [ANN] merge, cropty, and trust-chain

    https://hackage.haskell.org/package/trust-chain is a little more out there, but the most interesting to me personally. There are two ways to think about it, each useful to different audiences. On one hand, it can be seen as a tree where the node structure and leaf type are type level parameters, and every internal node is signed by the private key corresponding to the public key at that node. In Haskell, it can be seen as a free monad where every layer is signed in that same way.
