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.

What are Diode alternatives?
I've started with scalajs-react. Overall the experience was good (perhaps the overloaded API is my biggest concern, but we can live with that). Then I stumbled upon a problem where I need to propagate a state change from two leaf components and found out I need something like this Redux thing. I trtied built-in StateSnapshot, but couldn't make it working. Then I googled for Scala-land alternatives and it seems like there are few semi-abandoned Redux facades and Diode. Diode looks like what I need, but:
-
State of Scala.js frameworks
c) Diode is my favourite "wiring" library. It is similar to Redux and allows you to handle asynchronous behaviour in your frontend. It has a learning curve but it's not too bad and makes everything so much easier.

From ES6 to Scala: Basics
Japgolly has put a ton of time and care into https://github.com/japgolly/scalajs-react which is a complete React binding in scalajs. This paired with something like Diode (https://github.com/suzaku-io/diode) and you get a full frontend solution in scalajs.

Back-end languages are coming to the front-end
I'd love to see this approach make more headway in the Django community. Based on the last DjangoCon it seems like the community is coalescing around HTMX.
This tool does play very nicely with Django's templating engine; you can just have HTMX re-render a particular template block on the server, and send down that updated block. The migration path is quite clean; you just wrap your "HTMX-updated" template block in a `hx-post` div.
Having not gone too deep on HTMX, I'm interested in folks' thoughts on where it's lacking vs. LiveView and Hotwire. One area I can see is performance; Elixir is going to be faster than Django, and so if you're trying to handle high session counts over websockets. But the impression I get is that HTMX is a bit more light-weight, so I'm wondering if there's usecases that can't be met with it vs. LiveView.
Other Django libraries that haven't quite seen as much uptake:
We have https://github.com/edelvalle/reactor, and a port of Hotwire: https://github.com/hotwire-django but both of these don't seem to have much adoption (yet!).

Reactive Clojure: You don't need a web framework, you need a web language
Thank you for posting those, I wanted to post them but I don't comment often (). Wanted to chip in another contemporary: edelvalle/reactor, which is inspired by LiveView[0].

I am using Hotwire for a project, and I'm learning Elixir and Phoenix on the side. Finding edelvalle/reactor was immediately helpful to me though, because I cut my teeth on Python/Django, so reading a Python reference implementation helps me learn nuts and bolts of libraries, faster. (so, I figure that this might help someone else grok how these approaches work.)

How to combine Rails's Ajax support and Stimulus
If this sounds like a barebones version of notable frameworks like Elixir's Phoenix LiveView, Rails's StimulusReflex or Hotwire Turbo, PHP's LiveWire, Django's Reactor... well, you're right! (Bonus: my colleague @jgaskins built a LiveView clone for Crystal)

Reactor is a LiveView library for Django. It enables you to do something similar to Phoenix LiveView using Django Channels.

Django with htmx for easy and efficient SPAs
It looks a bit similar to Elixir Live View. Or similar in Django https://github.com/edelvalle/reactor, there are a couple of libraries.
