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 fully-regulated, API-driven bank, with Clojure
Not disagreeing, and it's only one aspect of Phoenix, but it might be of interest to someone reading that this LiveView-like Clojure library exists: https://github.com/tatut/ripley
Also this is a neat list of LiveView-like technologies across various languages: https://github.com/liveviews/liveviews

Any recommendations for a websoket library?
Ripley seems interesting: https://github.com/tatut/ripley https://dev.solita.fi/2020/06/01/rethinking-the-frontend.html

- Is Clojure suitable for my use cases?

Clojure needs a Rails, but not for the reason you think
Maybe it's because Clojure has typically attracted a demographic who are more shy about self-promoting and marketing their new ideas and tools. Photon is an exciting (and relevant) example defying that trend though: https://www.hytradboi.com/2022/uis-are-streaming-dags
Also relevant as a Phoenix-like alternative for Clojure: https://github.com/tatut/ripley
-
Is there anything in Clojure comparable to Hotwire in Rails or Phoenix Live View in Elixir? I've had with SPA's.
I haven't seen https://github.com/tatut/ripley mentioned. Seems cool.
