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.

Ask HN: Why does the Clojure ecosystem feel like such a wasteland?
> At least in the official docs, things should be cleaned up and made much more user friendly.
The source of clojure.org is at https://github.com/clojure/clojure-site/ and it gets a pretty constant stream of updates these days (it even accepts PRs!). It's a huge improvement over what it used to be -- so it depends on what/when you're comparing it to.
If you have specific criticisms or suggestions, I expect they'd be welcomed.

How are tools shared in a project?
I'll concede the docs could be improved but, hey, feel free to open an issue or PR here https://github.com/clojure/clojure-site instead of arguing with everyone on Reddit, eh?

Book recommendation focusing on tooling?
Eventually, I'm sure there will be a 4th edition of Programming Clojure and it will cover those tools in greater detail, but if you find issues or questions, feel free to file them at https://github.com/clojure/clojure-site/issues or ask on https://ask.clojure.org .

Help a JavaScript developer understand the reason to some pieces of syntax and convention
The ^ macro actually annotates metadata onto the value that read, rather than the resulting runtime value. This is mentioned in the last paragraph on the metadata page, and there's some more explanation in this Github issue.

Let's write a simple microservice in Clojure
This article will explain how to write a simple service in Clojure. The sweet spot of making applications in Clojure is that you can expressively use an entire rich Java ecosystem. Less code, less boilerplate: it is possible to achieve more with less. In this example, I use most of the libraries from the Java world; everything else is a thin Clojure wrapper around Java libraries.

A new F# compiler feature: graph-based type-checking
I have a tangential question that is related to this cool new feature.
Warning: the question I ask comes from a part of my brain that is currently melted due to heavy thinking.
Context: I write a fair amount of Clojure, and in Lisps the code itself is a tree. Just like this F# parallel graph type-checker. In Lisps, one would use Macros to perform compile-time computation to accomplish something like this, I think.
More context: Idris2 allows for first class type-driven development, where the types are passed around and used to formally specify program behavior, even down to the value of a particular definition.
Given that this F# feature enables parallel analysis, wouldn't it make sense to do all of our development in a Lisp-like Trie structure where the types are simply part of the program itself, like in Idris2?
Also related, is this similar to how HVM works with their "Interaction nets"?

https://www.idris-lang.org/
https://clojure.org/
I'm afraid I don't even understand what the difference between code, data, and types are anymore... it used to make sense, but these new languages have dissolved those boundaries in my mind, and I am not sure how to build it back up again.

Ask HN: Why does the Clojure ecosystem feel like such a wasteland?
As an analogy - my face hasn't changed all that much in a past few years, and I haven't changed my profile picture in those few years. Does it really mean that I'm unmaintained/dead?
> Where can I find latest documentation [...]?
The answer is still https://clojure.org/. And https://clojuredocs.org/ but it's community-maintained so might occasionally be missing some things right after they're released. E.g. as of this moment Clojure 1.11 is still not there since the maintainer of the website has some technical issues deploying the updated version of the website.
For me personally, the best API-level documentation is the source code.
> Where can I find [...] tools / libraries in a easy to use page or section?
There's no central repository of all the available things since they can be loaded from many places (Clojars, Maven Central, other Maven repositories, S3, Git, local files).
But there are community-maintained lists, like the one you've mentioned at https://www.clojure-toolbox.com (fully manual, AFAIK) or the one at https://phronmophobic.github.io/dewey/search.html (automated but only for GitHub). Perhaps there are others but I'm not familiar with them - most of the time, I myself don't find that much value in such services as I'm usually able to find things with a regular web search engine or ask the community when I need something in particular.

Why Lisp Syntax Works
They are written in Java, and implement a bunch of interfaces, so the implementation looks complicated, but they are basically just classes with head and tail fields.

Why I decided to learn (and teach) Clojure
Lisp is not a programming language, but a family of languages with many dialects. The most famous dialects include Common Lisp, Clojure, Scheme and Racket. So after deciding that I was going to learn Lisp, I had to choose one of its dialects.

8 Meta-learning Tips To Grow Your Skills as a Software Engineer
I learned Clojure to implement a plugin for Metabase (the tool my former company used for creating business dashboards). I probably won’t ever use the language anymore in the future, but learning functional programming was fun and eye-opening.
