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.

Koka: A fast functional programming language with algebraic effects
This post by the Koka-author is an update about what's currently being worked on: https://github.com/koka-lang/koka/discussions/339
-
Not Use Path Based Imports
Some programming language like JS, use path-based imports, that's not good for making a stabel API.
See https://api-extractor.com/pages/setup/configure_rollup/#:~:text=(The%20API%20Extractor,with%20that%20effort.)

What features would you want in a new programming language?
It also offers a great Inversion of Control mechanism where everything is customisable, and, unlike Capability Objects, AESs also offer compatibility with type inference (you can pass functions doing IO to map, and it Just Works(TM)) and first-class control over stack frames (because really a continuation function is just some stack frames, which you can manually move to the heap if you want a closure; which means async is an effect!). It also is composable in ways Monads are not.
-
What are you doing about async programming models? Best? Worst? Strengths? Weaknesses?
Koka and other languages implementing Algebraic Effect Systems make everything a user-defined case of coroutines: async is just another effect/Monadic type. Zig does something similar by having first class stack frames, making all function calls possibly asynchronous.

Letlang, a programming language targetting Rust - Road to v0.1
Super interesting, there is a proposal to add this to JavaScript and several languages that use this, unison, koka & eff. I had no idea this was even a thing!

Let's collect relatively new research programming languages in this thread
Koka, already cited in this thread, early 2010s. Koka's first claim to fame was a usable effect system (at the type were, basically, effect systems were not usable in practice; in fact few languages have managed to do as well as Koka since). Now its author is working on cool implementation strategies for functional languages as well.

[Offer] Tutoring for Computer Science / Programming / Software Engineering topics
I'm a software engineer with 3 years of professional experience. I worked for 2 years at Microsoft on Azure Compute and now work at Google, working on improving Google search. I am the sole maintainer of the popular open-source library microlens with 80k downloads. I've also contributed to the Koka programming language developed at Microsoft Research.

Implementing the Perceus reference counting GC
By implementing all of those optimizations in the Koka programming language, they achieved GC overhead much less and execution time faster than the other languages including OCaml, Haskell, and even C++ in several algorithms and data structures that frequently keep common sub-structures of them, such as red-black trees. For more information, see the latest version of the paper.

Announcing the Pen programming language v0.4
The Pen programming language is a new parallel, concurrent, statically typed, functional programming language. I'm excited to announce its v0.4 release here!

Implementing the Perceus reference counting GC
In this post, I describe my experience and some caveats about implementing and gaining benefits from the Perceus RC. I've been developing a programming language called Pen and implemented a large part of the Perceus RC there. I hope this post helps someone who is implementing the algorithm or even deciding if it's worth implementing it in their own languages.
