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.

Riff: A “mycelium-clj” for the Clojure ecosystem?
I definitely believe Clojure needs a rails. Not only will it help beginners get started, if it can help people get started faster and build fast like Django and rails do, I think it'll help more with adoption.
Biff and fulcro seems like they have a shot at this

State of Clojure 2023 Results
Jacob is doing a fantastic job with https://biffweb.com/ If the Clojure community would focus more of its manpower on such projects, then I think we can make Clojure the obvious choice to start a software business, by saving an insane amount of time. And time is by far the scarcest resource in a startup.

Leaving Clojure - Feedback for those that care
If you can get away with not using React, I highly recommend Biff. It uses XTDB and Rum by default but they can be swapped out pretty easily for Postgres and Reagent. I'm planning to publish some docs on how to do that when I have a chance.

Help finding a webdev framework that works out of the box
The best one of these imo is https://biffweb.com

Any resources for "current best practices and learnings?"
I'm also really liking the strategy of the old-school is new again with sever side rendering serving actual HTML instead of JSON for certain things, using HTMX, an example can be found here: https://biffweb.com/
-
Anyone here using HTMX with Clojure?
Take a look at Biff project https://biffweb.com/

Recommendations on Datalog Databases -- Schema Libraries
+1 for Malli and XT! For the relevant parts of Biff, see the example app's schema and the transaction reference docs. Biff has its own transaction format which includes schema checks via malli and various other conveniences, and it gets translated into XT's lower-level transaction format. Might provide some inspiration at least.

Biff tutorial: build a chat app with Clojure
Rum is used throughout, though mostly via middleware[1], so you (almost) never see any calls to `rum.core/render-static-markup`. But all of the hiccup-style data structures (`[:div "foo"]`, etc) do get rendered by Rum.
htmx doesn't render anything on the backend; rather it gives the frontend more ways to interact with the backend. e.g. say you make an inline form--htmx gives you the ability to display/submit that form without refreshing the entire page, but all the html that's sent to the frontend is still getting rendered first by Rum.

A History of Clojure (2020) [pdf]
* HTTP: Ring is the de facto way to manage HTTP request (see https://github.com/ring-clojure/ring/wiki/Concepts). Jetty and Aleph are common web servers (and https://github.com/clj-commons/aleph) that implement Ring interface.

what componies uses Clojure, and what componies deceased the use of other languages after additions of Clojure, for example Dropbox decrease the use of python after addition of Go programming language, are there any similar story with Clojure?

I Don’t Like Go’s Default HTTP Handlers
> In the HTTP handlers it makes sense that you don't have return values, because: What would you do with that value exactly?
I think that approach used by clojure's ring shows an elegant way to represent http responses https://github.com/ring-clojure/ring/wiki/Concepts#responses. They are essentially structs with the following fields:
status := number
headers := map of string->string
body := stream | string | seq | inputstream
Request handlers are handed a request struct that is similar. The handler is a function that maps a request to a response (it doesn't actually write to streams itself).
I like this style for an http library for a couple of reasons:
1. HTTP resources can be viewed as functions whose domain is the request, and range is the response. Having the abstraction match that makes for really nice code.
-
what web framework do you use?
While you won't find your Spring here, you will find that many of those web libraries will tend to use or produce Hiccup, return Ring maps or maybe have pipelines built using interceptors. Composing libraries together is usually not that hard, but it does require you to leave the comfort zone of the framework's abstractions to try to understand what is actually happening e.g. when someone makes an HTTP request and something is returned and displayed in the browser.

Microhttp is an event-driven, single-threaded, zero-dependency web server with 500 LOC. Benchmarks on EC2 show 100,000+ requests per second and 50,000+ persistent connections.
On that note, are you able to support everything required by the ring spec?

is bulding rest apis with clojure a good idea ?
You can check out my example project in Clojure with using Ring.

It uses already mentioned ring api (https://github.com/ring-clojure/ring/wiki).

Can someone help me understand ring's async handlers (specifically, with Jetty)
I've tried to pair down to the simplest example which shows the issue, and raised it here as I couldn't see one you'd already created or similar: https://github.com/ring-clojure/ring/issues/436 This is so that I have something to link to/follow from our side, hope you don't mind, and many thanks for the diagnosis!
