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.

Is it viable to develop a compiler in haskell that uses LLVM
The llvm-hs GitHub has branches for LLVM 12 and even LLVM 15. I believe the LLVM 12 version works pretty well, but I am not sure of the LLVM 15 version.
-
Should I abandon using haskell for my compiler?
Looking at the network graph, it looks like there are forks which mention llvm-12 branches, which may be more up to date.

Monthly Hask Anything January 2021
I found this in the readme of llvm-hs:

Native code generation
Interestingly llvm-hs seems to have gotten a new maintainer which has ambitious ideas like using it for GHC and absorbing the bytecode parser llvm-pretty-bc-parser.

LLVM Internals: The Bitcode Format
It's actually interesting how many independent implementations of bitcode writers there, given that there are almost no independent bitcode readers (mine is very preliminary, and then there's one from Galois[1]).
I believe Swift also does their own serialization in LLVM's bitstream format[2]. I also saw an implementation of the writer in Swift, but now I've lost it.
