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.

Flutter offline
I'm not aware of any usable CRDT implementations for Dart, my plan is to use the flutter_rust_bridge to make use of automerge v2, which is a full CRDT implementation written in Rust that has the advantage of having a very simple API to work with (basically a key/value store).

Best local database that works on all platforms including web?
Yes. I asked the devs about ideas for this in this ticket and got an interesting response. It's aimed towards server-side handling, but the same ideas apply to local storage as well.

CRDTs: A Beginner's overview for building a collaborative app
There are a lot of implementations of CRDTs out there. In JavaScript, for instance, we have Y.js (https://github.com/yjs/yjs) and automerge (https://github.com/automerge/automerge). There’s also a Y.js demo (https://demos.yjs.dev/prosemirror/prosemirror.html) that allows you to play around with them and have your own collaborative app running in just a few seconds. All messages are exchange via webRTC and manages the state via CRDTs. This can be a great sandbox to understand how CRDTs work and see.

Evan Wallace CRDT Algorithms
Anyone unsure of what a CRDT is, this is the perfect intro: https://www.inkandswitch.com/peritext/
The two most widely used CRDT implementations (combining JSON like general purpose types and rich text editing types) are:
- Automerge https://github.com/automerge/automerge
- Yjs https://github.com/yjs/yjs

Should I Move From PHP to Node/Express?
For instance, practicing "local first web" using automerge with all it's Distributed Persistence Primitives on CRDT's and Vector Clocks - i.e. when the Browser View is treated like a Database replica, essentially; or adopting a real data mapper that's giving you an API from your database Schema, using Prisma or Hasura... or even implementing a custom codegenereted one, as a babel plugin, on top of TSED and Micro-ORM.

Functional Programming 1
2. https://github.com/fantasyland/fantasy-land (A bit heavy on jargon)
Note there is a python version of Ramda available on pypi and there’s a lot of FP tidbits inside JAX:
3. https://pypi.org/project/ramda/ (Worth making your own version if you want to learn, though)
4. For nested data, JAX tree_util is epic: https://jax.readthedocs.io/en/latest/jax.tree_util.html and also their curry implementation is funny: https://github.com/google/jax/blob/4ac2bdc2b1d71ec0010412a32...
Anyway don’t put FP on a pedestal, main thing is to focus on the core principles of avoiding external mutation and making helper functions. Doesn’t always work because some languages like Rust don’t have legit support for currying (afaik in 2023 August), but in those cases you can hack it with builder methods to an extent.
Finally, if you want to understand the middle of the midwit meme, check out this wiki article and connect the free monoid to the Kleene star (0 or more copies of your pattern) and Kleene plus (1 or more copies of your pattern). Those are also in regex so it can help you remember the regex symbols. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_monoid?wprov=sfti1
The simplest example might be {0}^* in which case
0: “” // because we use *

Ramda: A practical functional library for JavaScript programmers
It was never really my jam, but I used to follow the up-and-coming fantasy-land specs with great interest. It just seemed like a sharp dedicated community of folks trying to figure out better fp & algebraic stuff. I'm not sure who trailed off - in general I feel like there's much less connection in tech world, that the tech twitter and every other ultra-active tech channel has somewhat decayed. https://github.com/fantasyland/fantasy-land
Thanks for the links. I know I've seen @gcanti's name a thousand times already, but it's already quite murky to me what it was attached to. Something in this sphere.

How elaborate could/should a transducers combiner function be?
Look at the implementations of Fantasy Land. List-in-JS might do the trick.

Should I Move From PHP to Node/Express?
There are respective fantasy land and static land specs, with the law conformance checks.

I came across the "Fantasy Land Specification", it somewhat conflicts with my own simplistic understanding of monads and functors. Is this specification valid, and should I honor it?
While building a purely functional data structure library for personal fun and professional use, and while using other libraries, I found that the "Fantasy Land Specification" was mentioned from time to time. They use this hierarchy. Although I did read some about category theory (tried and failed to fully understand all the concepts), some of the terms used in the specification are unknown to me (like Chain, Apply). My question:
-
Best explanation of monads ive ever seen, from the practical developper’s point of view.
No: neither of those examples are "properties of futures and of lists as such." "Async/Await" in particular is a special case of monadic behavior of a concurrency monad. This specifically (infamously) came up in the evolution of the Prommise spec in ECMAScript, which in turn led to the development of the Fantasy Land Spec and various implementations of it.
- should i learn design patterns?

Design Patterns Book for functional programming?
If you're programming in TypeScript you can checkout the fantasy land spec. It provides a spec for all the algebraic structures used in the JS world. You can learn what they are. You'll want to find alternative resources to learn what they are how they work. Fantasy land is just a spec not a guide.
