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.

Why there are no more classes in new programming languages ?
There are many cool and awesome languages out there...

Good resources to find new and in development programming languages?
https://github.com/ChessMax/awesome-programming-languages seems pretty good. I would love to have some kind of sorting and filtering options, but it is definitely very comprehensive and actively maintained.

Seeking Language Project to Join
There are hundreds of awesome programming languages out there. You are to choose what's more suitable for your goals and interests. Many languages are looking for contributors, testers and so on. Just give it a try.

May 2022 monthly "What are you working on?" thread
Continue working on collecting awesome PLs. Want to say many thanks to all contributors. You are all cool. One of the contributors added 30 PLs to the list. It's incredible. Now the list contains 178 languages. And it's huge. The more will come later. Stay tuned! As always I'm open to any help/contributions (PRs or issue or even ideas).

What the imperative shell of an Functional Core/Imperative Shell language looks like
I like it. Modern languages that distinguish between pure and impure programs like Flix, Koka, and Effekt do so on the type level instead of syntactically. This has three advantages:
-
Algebraic Effects: Another mistake carried through to perfection?
The problem with checked exceptions been identified and solved. The same problem and solution applies to effect handlers. Effekt is a language with lexical effect handlers which doesn't have this problem. Consider the following program in Effekt:
-
Is continuation passing style conversion still used as an intermediate language?
Yes, for you this is the right decision. But for us going to CPS makes everything significantly easier and in cases where you do use control effects significantly faster. For our language Effekt we are exploring different tradeoffs in different backends.
-
The Registers of Rust - Without boats, dreams dry up
This pattern they observe is nicely captured by effect handlers. These examples are written in Effekt.
-
An approach to manual memory management and side effect handling system, feedback, ideas and thoughts requested
This is beyond my level of expertise. But effect tracking? There are some cool languages out there that do that consistently! Search for "algebraic effects". My favorite is Koka. Effekt also seems to be a popular choice.

Is there a garbage collected, statically typed language, that has null safety, and doesn't use exceptions?
Examples are languages like Koka, Effekt, Links, or Unison. These languages come with a type-and-effect system: a function's type not only tell you which values the function accepts and which values it returns, but also which effects it has. This is relevant to your question, because throwing an exception is one such effect.

The Val Object Model: Template for a possible future Swift object model
It seems that with Effekt we are pursuing the same goal, but coming from the opposite direction, perhaps one day we will meet in the middle :). We start from a purely functional language and carefully add effects like mutation.
