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.

ts-belt - Fast, modern, and practical utility library for FP in TypeScript / Flow / JavaScript. (Faster than ramda, rambda, remeda and lodash/fp.)
I don't really use ts-belt to be certain, but by looking at the source, it seems that it's using genType, which can generate TS types from ReScript values, and that makes interop work really well.

ReScript 10.0
They discuss this in their docs.
https://rescript-lang.org/docs/manual/latest/introduction#di...
Seems like a type system for Javascript, built with a differing set of opinions than Typescript.
Looks like they also offer some form of TS interop:

TS Belt - fast, modern, and practical utility library for FP in TypeScript
TS Belt has been built with ReScript (and its Belt stdlib). ReScript generates highly performant JavaScript code, and with genType it also automatically generates TypeScript types. Moreover, I've added a few codemods to the building process to provide even more code optimizations and cleaner TypeScript signatures.

How I Switched from TypeScript to ReScript
To interoperate with TypeScript with proper type information you’ll use third-party genType. Add it as a devDependency and annotate the module export you want to generate with @genType (in previous versions you’d surround annotations with square brackets).

From a Lorry Driver to Ruby on Rails Developer at 38
I think it’s great that functional programming is making its way into traditional imperative languages - even JavaScript (I recently came across https://gcanti.github.io/fp-ts/ as a pretty extreme example)
Elixir/Erlang has function-level pattern matching, which I really like. I’ve yet to see it anywhere else, though my understanding is it came from Prolog.

Type-Safe Printf() in TypeScript
While I certainly agree, I've found that this is often an indication of too-complex an architecture, and a fundamental re-think being necessary. I've had projects that depend on [fp-ts], which end up incredibly generic-heavy, but still make it entirely through a typecheck(not build- typescript's just worse at that than other tools like esbuild) in seconds-at-worse.
Obviously depends on your organization/project/application, but I do like these things as complexity-smells.

Introducing fp-utils a functional utility library for Deno / Node
Unlike more comprehensive functional libraries like fp-ts, each module can be imported and resolved separately. If you just need options, simply add the option module and you're good to go.

Blog post: graphs and monads with Typescript
While it's quite abstract, I believe it may be useful to those of you who is interested to learn more about functional programming [in Typescript] and also get more intuition on diverse programming ideas. I use fp-ts as a functional programming library there.

Functional Programming Library for Golang by IBM
The library for TypeScript that this is influenced by is here:
https://github.com/gcanti/fp-ts
Interesting how both languages with this library converge to a similar syntax, due to heavy use of functions.

Is Scala worth learning in 2023?
Learn something that pays the bill first - nowadays it's Golang/Rust react/typescript. Then you can try some pure fp libs like fp-ts and fp-core.rs, and look through existing scala cats docs. If you'll feel bad about it - that's totally fine and expectable, fp takes a paradigm shift and not that many dev able to shift their brains way of thought due to basic psychological rigidity) (inability to change habits and to modify concepts/attitudes once developed). And that's purely a staffing and management issue - folks hired randoms out of the blue, and called 'em a team.

Application Bootstrapping with fp-ts
fp-ts, a library that caters to functional programming in TypeScript, comes with some micro-abstractions that already solve a few of our needs.

What are some strategies for ensuring correctness and fewer errors in dynamically typed languages?
Also, don't underestimate how powerful TypeScript can be in capable hands (namely Giulio Canti's). Check out fp-ts, for instance.

Use Pure Functions to understand functional programming
You are able to type it using function overloads, an example can be found here - link, line 236.
