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.

From TypeScript to ReScript
I have to admit I don't know much about ReScript and only have very basic exposure to OCAML, here is how you do await in it:
https://github.com/ocsigen/lwt
The `let* in` is a generic syntax for monads, it doesn't need a special one just for promise. This was in fact a debate back when async/await was in consideration for ECMAScript, but special syntax is hip so now we have `async/await` for Promise, `.?` for optionals and `flatMap` for arrays, basically the same thing.

Dream – Tidy Web Framework for OCaml and ReasonML
Dream doesn't have much of a system call dependency footprint itself. It's basically just a convention for plugging request -> response functions into a web server. Some of its native dependencies will have to be replaced by Node equivalents. Soon after that, it would be portable to Node.
There is already work underway to port Dream to Mirage, to run in unikernels: https://github.com/aantron/dream/pull/22
Lwt, Dream's promise library, is itself getting ported to run on top of libuv: https://github.com/ocsigen/lwt/issues/813
libuv is, of course, the I/O library that powers Node, so it might be practical to run Dream as a native node module very soon after doing this.
(As an aside, I'm supposed to work on that libuv project, but instead I've been working on Dream :P)

Yew alternatives
Practically every Rust web frontend I've seen takes a react-like approach, with "hooks" to store all of the state in. The now-abandoned Seed and Yew's struct components use a message-passing approach, where the state is stored as member variables on the struct representing the component that are updated based on messages dispatched by event handlers. There's also egui, which has a completely different paradigm that involves making the UI from scratch every frame based on the app's current state. It's not a web framework the same way as the others, but it can draw its UI to a web canvas just fine.

Want a web app to respond to local file changes. Is Tauri the solution here?
Sycamore, Yew, or Seed if you want a full-stack solution. (Or Leptos if you want something that's faster but less mature.)

Full-stack authentication system using rust (actix-web) and sveltekit
An authentication system is an integral part of modern applications. It's so important that almost all modern applications have some sort of it. Because of their critical nature, such systems should be secure and should follow OWAP®'s recommendations on web security and password hashing as well as storage to prevent attacks such as Preimage and Dictionary attacks (common to SHA algorithms). To demonstrate some of the recommendations, we'll be building a robust session-based authentication system in Rust and a complementary frontend application. For this article series, we'll be using Rust's actix-web and some awesome crates for the backend service. SvelteKit will be used for the frontend. It should be noted however that what we'll be building is largely framework agnostic. As a result, you can decide to opt for axum, rocket, warp or any other rust's web framework for the backend and react, vue or any other javascript framework for the frontend. You can even use rust's yew, seed or some templating engines such as MiniJinja or tera at the frontend. It's entirely up to you. Our focus will be more on the concepts.

Blazor United - When it ships it would be the most glorious way to do web with .NET
Aside from Blazor there's already some other projects like Yew (rust), seed (rust), asm-dom (C++) and vugu (Go) and more that have decent followings and activity. A lot more (especially managed languages) are waiting for some features to come online like wasm GC and host bindings (direct wasm access to browser apis which includes the DOM). It'll take a bit of time, but it'll get there eventually.

Back to School: Free Rust Courses
For desktop apps maybe check out Tauri . You can use it with a lot of (web)frontend options including yew/wasm (also Seed ) if you want to go 100% Rust. Actix and Rocket are options for web framework. Also have look at the Building a Command Line Program in the book. I found it really helpful since i am just starting to learn myself.

They interviewed the founder of a full-stack Rust framework called "MoonZoon" in this newsletter. Has anyone here used MoonZoon before?
I haven't been keeping up with it, but have heard of it. If ibrecall correctly it was created by the developer that initially developed seed (https://seed-rs.org/)
