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.

Show HN: Quietone – search audio and video by transcript
Hey. This is my first electron app. It is called Quietone and I just thought it would be cool to navigate and manipulate videos by their transcript because searching through videos for the things I was looking for was very slow otherwise.
I used whisper.cpp to do the transcribing. It has held up really well. The tiny model (the fastest one) can transcribe 2 hours of video in a couple of minutes on my m2 mac mini and the accurate of even the tiny model is pretty good.
I used Electron Forge to package the app for different operating systems and distribution channels. There are no guides on the internet on how to do that properly so that took quite a bit of time to figure out.
At multiple stages I had to look through source code of Electron Forge's dependencies to figure out how I was supposed to use it to correctly sign the app for the mac app store.
I made this app using the tools I like to use, which is not very typical. I use straight javascript, no transpiling, and I wrote every single library myself from the ORM https://github.com/thebinarysearchtree/flyweight to the front-end framework, which is a thin wrapper over web components.
Oh yeah, Electron recently started supporting esm, but Electron Forge doesn't fully support it so I had to use esbuild to compile to cjs just for the packaging step.
I use events to make everything change in real-time in the UI. Umm... oh yeah I did include yt-dlp features but had to remove that for the store versions.
It is available on the mac store, and soon on the windows store. There is also a trial you can download. The windows store experience is not very polished compared to the mac store. I was amazed that there are humans reviewers looking through everything I upload. hah.
Anyway, I have to go find a job now and hope my username doesn't check out. Bye. Thanks for reading my blog.

Is TypeScript actually worth It?
I wrote https://github.com/thebinarysearchtree/flyweight in JavaScript, not TypeScript. It generates TypeScript declaration files as it types SQL, which helps with intellisense support in VSCode. That is the only reason I use TypeScript.
I don't like TypeScript though, and would never write anything in it. I have a long history with C# and I came to conclusions about this topic a long time ago. I just prefer writing JavaScript, it is more fun and more productive.
Flyweight is quite a complex library. It parses arbitrarily complex SQL. This is more complex than most of the things people work on and claim they need static typing. It isn't millions of lines of code, but often those codebases aren't complex, they are just many independent components that in themselves are not that complex.
The amount of time I spend having to update the TypeScript aspect of my library is really quite annoying. Also, with regards to your point about libraries not including type information - this is also true for the actual native APIs in the browser and so on as well. For example, TypeScript doesn't recognise the "indices" property of regular expression matches.

Tired of Typescript? Check out ReScript!
ReScript is a fully typed language with an easy to understand JS like syntax, blazing fast compiler, that compiles to JavaScript. You can easily drop it into an existing project, and there is even a way to generate TypeScript types if you want to add it to a TypeScript project!

Learning Elm by porting a medium-sized web front end from React (2019)
If you’re a front-end developer, you should checkout ReScript[1], supposedly a JS-oriented successor of ReasonML and developed by the ReasonML team.

ReScript: Rust like features for JavaScript
ReScript is "Fast, Simple, Fully Typed JavaScript from the Future". What that means is that ReScript has a lightning fast compiler, an easy to learn JS like syntax, strong static types, with amazing features like pattern matching and variant types. Until 2020 it was called "BuckleScript" and is closely related to ReasonML.

Ask HN: Interest in a Rust-Inspired Language Compiling to JavaScript?
As another commenter has already suggested, ReasonML has a lot of what you described here.
However, modern JS-oriented toolchain for ReasonML is called ReScript and you can learn more here: https://rescript-lang.org/

How does one write React apps in a purely functional style without making the entire codebase a mess?
ReScript (before BuckleScript) https://rescript-lang.org/ is a functional language that can also use OOP. Ideal for Javascript and Typescript projects, React and servers. It integrates perfectly with Javascript and Typescript code https://rescript-lang.org/docs/react/latest/introduction

Show HN: EdgeDB Cloud and 4.0 with FTS and Auth
Thank you!
We invited Gabriel because we think what he's building is pretty cool. It showcases so much about EdgeDB: its type system, data model, query language, composability, introspection, etc.
I'm not a ReScript user myself. What I know is that it's a functional programming language somewhat heavily inspired by OCaml. Their website goes into details [1]

Strong typing, a hill I'm willing to die on
You might want to look into ReScript (https://rescript-lang.org/). It has strong static typing with type inference, and it is very fast.

Building React Components Using Unions in TypeScript
This is because a “Tagged Union”, another word for TypeScript’s Discriminated Union, is a way to “tag which one is in use right now… we check the tag to see”. Just like when you’re shopping and check the tag of a piece of clothing to see what the price is, what size it is, or what material it’s made out of. Languages like ReScript compile many of their Unions (called Variants) to JavaScript Objects that have a tag property.
