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.

A solid GUI Framework for Haskell?
Why do you need a GUI library, if you can write your application using extensible effects frameworks, just choose any and enjoy!

‘Missing C libraries’ when compiling haskell-gi-base on Windows
As far as I can tell, I haven’t explicitly set extra-prog-path to anything in particular. haskell-gi’s package.cabal doesn’t seem to have this variable set either. If it does have some value out of the ordinary, I would have no idea how to figure that out.

A solid GUI Framework for Haskell?
gi-gtk (part of the haskell-gi project) is still actively maintained and it is in LTS 18.

Best UI Toolkit for generating UI elements at runtime
Excellent news! For Windows, there’s some detailed documentation on installation, which I personally think is excellent. (Though I may be biased, since I wrote some of it myself!) For Linux, I remember installation being pretty simple last time I tried it (on an Ubuntu VM, as I already mentioned), though I haven’t attempted it again lately.
Followed https://github.com/haskell-gi/haskell-gi#mac-osx
For compilation there are instructions here that should be enough. We also had issues at run time about missing gsettings-schemas. We found a thread for another gtk application which solved our issues with these commands:
It worked. Long story short : upgraded everything, applied Github issue workaround, it worked.
Sorry, not a maintainer (that would be /u/garetxe, I think), just a satisfied user! And a Windows one to boot, so I wouldn’t know about Mac (though I have previously managed to build it on an Ubuntu VM). Perhaps try building it again and submit an issue if it doesn’t work; there’s some relevant documentation here and here which might help.
