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.

Advice a project
My understanding of web3 is that it has to do with browsers interacting with cryptocurrencies and other decentralized applications, so if you want to do that in Haskell you probably want to use GHC JS, but I'm honestly not sure if that's advisable. If you want to make backend programs and servers to interact with cryptocurrencies and decentralized applications, you should look for the client libraries for those cryptocurrencies or decentralized applications. For instance, here is a Haskell client for IPFS. Here is an RPC API for Bitcoin core. Here seems to be a similar thing for Ethereum. I'm not up to speed on these things so I am not attesting to the quality of these libraries.

Monthly Hask Anything (February 2022)
After some more searching I did find that the network package has caused issues compiling on windows before (e.g. this issue). The only change that 3.1.2.7 introduced was actually to try to make it work on windows. Maybe they did not succeed completely? I think it is a good idea to open an issue on their issue tracker: https://github.com/haskell/network/issues.
