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.

Secretly introduced rust in my company, now they love it!
There is a fork that compiles to js https://github.com/ghcjs/ghcjs compiler, and I believe the official glasgow compiler is working towards also supporting js/wasm (although I don't think they are supported as of yet).

Resurrection/modernization of an old Haskell+Haste project (boardgame Yinsh)
I don't know anything about Haste, but you can get GHCJS 8.6 (or 8.10 with a bloated executable) via nix fairly easily or alternatively wait until the JS target recently merged into mainline ghc gets production ready: https://engineering.iog.io/2023-01-26-ghc-update.

How does GHC built from source set header search path?
Ah GHCJS does have this header: https://github.com/ghcjs/ghcjs/blob/ghc-8.10/lib/boot/data/include/stg/DLL.h
- Haskell, JS, and WebDev?
-
Status of GHCJS for larger projects
It seems like https://github.com/ghcjs/ghcjs/issues/821 is a rigid dealbreaker for any sizable project.

GHCJS or Asterius
About the FFI: GHCJS extended the FFI to support inlined JS, named arguments, etc. See https://github.com/ghcjs/ghcjs/blob/master/doc/foreign-function-interface.md For now the JS backend only implements FFI calls similarly to native FFI. The rest will be open to discussion later (e.g. in a ghc-proposal) and should take into account the Wasm backend so that the same user code compiles with both backends as much as possible.
- Just few questions on Miso and GHCjs
-
Memory from finished thread is not getting reclaimed
Other than that, I ran into a GHCJS and Miso bug, but they weren't too hard to solve.

GHC Pluggable Backend?
There are a bunch of open branches. And yes, there is ghcjs support in haskell.nix, see this comment.
-
Is GHCJS stuck on GHC 8.6.5?
When I compile the ghc-8.8 branch locally, I get a number of test failures from the test suite. I'm not sure exactly how to fix them and they aren't currently my highest hobby priority.

Haskell is a Bad Programming Language (2020)
> I think that Haskell is a great language to prototype pure business logic because of the type system and focus on purity, but it has several warts, because haskellers focus more on language research than DX.
This is very true. We recently started https://github.com/digitallyinduced/haskell-ux to keep track of haskell DX improvements. Some of our suggestions are already issues on the GHC (haskell compiler) bug tracker.
Here's an example of a great UX improvement in GHC: https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/merge_requests/4711
