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.

- Ask HN: Why do you think F# is not more popular, even within the .NET ecosystem?
-
Is there a modern IDE with good support for OCaml?
I'd love to see something similar to Microsoft's Ionide project or for JetBrains to invest in IDE support.
-
Why OCaml?
> Pretty good, https://ionide.io
It pains me to admit it because I really like F# but, with due respect to the developers, Ionide and its related projects are the most unstable toolchain I've ever used.
Spend half a day reloading the editor because the extension keeps hanging on non-trivial MSBuild only to discover that the formatter has truncated in half one of the files you worked on due to a soundness bug. (OCaml's editor support, in contrast, is quite stable.)
Rider is the best editing experience I've had with F#, by far.
-
How to get a non-broken F# development experience?
I know it's a recurring topic but it's reaching a high level of pain *again* (see NET SDK 6.0.400 and 7.0.100 previews don't currently work with Ionide).
-
The Case for C# and .NET
I don't disagree but it owes a lot of that to OCaml. That said, since we're talking about C#, F# and VS Code I'm gonna talk about a pet peeve I have. If you open a C# project in VS Code when the "Ionide" (basically the F# plugin for Code) is installed then Ionide thinks it's a F# project and will open some F# stuff after a few seconds (or prompt you to setup some F# stuff in its gitignore). The root cause has been identified (plugin activates when it sees a ".sln" file), a PR have been opened and rejected with no mention as to why (https://github.com/ionide/ionide-vscode-fsharp/pull/1401) and the developers behind it are frustratingly non-communicative about it, closing issues about it (https://github.com/ionide/ionide-vscode-fsharp/issues/1701). Usual rules about OSS maintainers apply, they don't technically owe us users anything ... but man it feels like we're being trolled by now :D

Rust Is Hard, Or: The Misery of Mainstream Programming
F# doesn't have a hard dependency on vscode. Resources from MS will obviously encourage using MS tooling, but ionide [1] is really good. The lsp+neovim workflow is not as good but getting better.

Making Ionide less "intrusive" in its new vscode version

Perf Avore: A Rule Based CrossPlatform Performance Based Monitoring and Analysis Tool
Perf Avore was developed on VSCode using the ionide plugin and dotnet cli.

A few newbie questions
I was on .Net 5 but same issue on 6. I tried the fix here- setting FSharp.dotnetRoot explicitly in settings.json and so far it seems better.

Debugging tests in VS Code
Make sure to keep an eye on this MR for that very capability :)

Dada, an Experiement by the Creators of Rust
This conversation could be referring to https://fable.io/
Other than that, the question is indeed strange and I agree with your statements.

Exploring a foreign F# codebase
NOTE: For larger codebases with more history it is likely that the Program.fs file will have a lot of orchestration and logic as well. given that it is often where everything clashes and starts, for example the Fable Entrypoint is in Entry.fs and it contains a lot of code. The best you can do always is to start at the bottom of the file and work your way up. Remember: Everything at the bottom uses what has already been defined at the top so there are no circular dependencies or random functions/types at the bottom that can trip you off, everything comes from the top!
-
Revisiting WASM for F#
I am a big fan of going with web components + plain (build-less) javascript whenever possible, so it is not surprising that I often favor things like the Fable Compiler, where I can target my F# code directly to javascript and be as close to the native JS experience as possible, both for interop concerns and for ecosystem integration.
-
A new F# compiler feature: graph-based type-checking
Fable compiler - https://fable.io/
The F# community is very friendly (these sub-communities as well), and they have plenty of good issues/opportunities to contribute OSS work to across any skill level.
Phosphor isn't hiring right now, but we expect to begin a search for FE/interface engineers over the next few month. Email [email protected] for anyone interested.

Building React Components Using Unions in TypeScript
Naturally I’d recommend using a better language such as ReScript or Elm or PureScript or F#‘s Fable + Elmish, but “React” is the king right now and people perceive TypeScript as “less risky” for jobs/hiring, so here we are.

Dart 3.1 and a retrospective on functional style programming in Dart
Stuff like this: https://github.com/fable-compiler/Fable/issues/1822
It just seems like an incredibly ambitious project that appears to have very little equal but is mainly worked on by a handful of people but no corporate backing. I get the feeling that if you want to use it, you'll either be the only one doing what you're doing or among just a few people. I already use F# and feel this way about the core language itself.

Elixir – Why the dot (when calling anonymous functions)?
F# is also part of the OCaml family, has a great to-JS transpiler (https://fable.io/) and F# code can also be used in .NET projects.
- Is it possible to write games like Pac-Man in a functional language?

URGENT HELP NEEDED! Should I learn C#, ASP.NET and the new MAUI framework?
I have heard many good things about https://fable.io/ Fable converts F# code to JavaScript. There are currently 407 packages available for interacting with existing JavaScript packages and frameworks.
What are some alternatives?
playwright-dotnet - .NET version of the Playwright testing and automation library.
rescript-compiler - The compiler for ReScript.
proposal-pipeline-operator - A proposal for adding a useful pipe operator to JavaScript.
Sutil - Lightweight front-end framework for F# / Fable. No dependencies.
Feliz - A fresh retake of the React API in Fable and a collection of high-quality components to build React applications in F#, optimized for happiness
ClojureCLR - A port of Clojure to the CLR, part of the Clojure project
jakt - The Jakt Programming Language
Roslyn - The Roslyn .NET compiler provides C# and Visual Basic languages with rich code analysis APIs.
fs-components
Perla - A cross-platform tool for unbundled front-end development that doesn't depend on Node or requires you to install a complex toolchain
