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.

RFC: cabal add
This is a planned feature, but will take a while due to the exactprint prerequisite. In the meantime you could try https://github.com/sdiehl/cabal-edit

Why doesn't Haskell have a package manager?
I just found some more info: this functionality is provided by the third party cabal-edit tool. This is the specific issue that tracks the integration of that functionality into cabal itself. One of the problems of the cabal-edit tool is that it sometimes messes up your cabal files. We need the exact-printing to avoid that.

Is there some truth to this hyperbole? "Haskell is beautiful and elegant, but unmaintainable and painful"
It kinda is, but it's a one-time thing and it gives us the ability to map module names to packages by only looking at the index. Plus, the list can be generated: cabal-fmt has an expand feature, and in the future HLS could do that too.
