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.

On the verge of giving up learning Haskell because of the terrible tooling.
I am a Haskell newbie myself. Found nix flakes and https://github.com/srid/haskell-template really nice to start with (of course some learning curve is unavoidable).
-
Simple GHC stack for a novice
If you wanna get started with Haskell on Nix, check out Sridhar Ratnakumar's Haskell template for Nix. You can easily clone the repo and move your Haskell code into it, especially if you're still a novice (as you likely won't be dealing with a HUGE codebase).

haskell-flake: A `flake-parts` Nix module for Haskell development.
I'd say that's up to you. haskell-template did recently switch to this; you can see the changes in this PR, which is all limited to flake.nix.

Best practices for Haskell on M1 with Nix?
Could you open an issue here with the full error message?
-
Looking for IDE that is suitable for learning Haskell
I think you should use ghcup because Nix has a higher learning curve ... BUT if you ever want to try out Nix, there is https://github.com/srid/haskell-template which sets everything up for you so that things "just work" in VSCode.

Would anyone be interested in hoot: A cabal wrapper for haskell based on Cargo?
Also, there's already a cabal RFC to support toml: https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/7548

On the verge of giving up learning Haskell because of the terrible tooling.
Cabal has a lot of dark corners once you stray from the happy path. Just checked and I'm currently subscribed to 37 threads on the issue tracker, and I'm not a maintainer. A lot of these are related to lesser-used features like cabal scripts, environment files and doctests (though I think all of these things would used more if they were more reliable), but there's also plenty of stupid stuff like: - https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/3313 - https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/8527 - https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/8391 - https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/7789 - https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/6888 - https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/6999 - https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/5271

Problems installing hindent witch haskell tool stack on windows 10
Given that Mike Pilgrim (the Stack maintainer) is on Windows, and Cabal has issues on Windows, I think it might be easier to get Windows specific fixes merged in Stack.

Help figuring out output from Cabal resolver
The error message is not too helpful. This is the target of a long-standing ticket: https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/7993 Your help would be very welcome.

There is No “Tooling Issue” in Haskell
By the way, there are some open issues for the command to add a package in Cabal.

Why GHCi is my new calculator
That's interesting. Could you could open a an issue about this? https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues

The best way to add a flag to copy documentation to given location?
I created this issue a few months ago: https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/8270

Trying to figure out cabal dependency management
Reported this as a bug in cabal.

JavaScript backend merged into GHC | IOG Engineering
We definitely plan to have benchmarks once we start working on performance. We haven't started yet because there were more urgent tasks. For example: ensuring that the testsuite runs on CI with the JS backend (should be completed this week or the next), ensuring that the toolchain works properly (we're writing a tutorial and we've found new bugs, e.g. yesterday I've fixed the support for js-sources in Cabal https://github.com/haskell/cabal/pull/8636), adding TH support...
