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.

Scala isn't fun anymore
The author is the creator of Monix and implemented the first version of cats-effect. He knows what he is doing.
-
How many of you are using Monix?
I haven't had the pleasure to use it personally, but will probably check it out once Monix switches to CE3. As far as I'm aware, this requires a major rewrite of the library: https://github.com/monix/monix/issues/1502

Alternative to RxJava/RxScala
The Observer is a bit different, it returns Future[Ack] for built-in back-pressure. We can Continue / Stop synchronously or asynchronously.

What languages have "implicit awaits" ?
cats-effect or monix or ZIO for Scala.

Elm [1] is based on a similar idea. Build your app from pure functions that return HTML tags.

Can you make your own JavaScript by implementing ECMAScript standard?
You also wouldn't really be creating your own new programing language. You would be creating something that can run JavaScript by following JavaScript standards and syntax. You might be able to add some non-standard features of your own on top of those standards, or include your own standard library of helpers or utilities, but you can't completely make a new or alternative language and then load it in the browser (or at least not by reimplementing ECMAScript standards... you actually can make your own language that runs within any Javascript enviroment, if you provide an interpreter or compiler that transforms it into valid JS. Some people have done something like this, eg Elm: https://elm-lang.org/).

What is the best way to present the user the results of Haskell computations?
You should at least have a look at https://elm-lang.org/ it is a pure functional language like Haskell (although with fewer fancy syntax/type classes) but it has some lovely libraries for visualisation and even with plain elm (+ elm-ui) doing string transformations can be easily done.

Building React Components Using Unions in TypeScript
I get it. However, the whole point of using Unions to narrow your types, ensure only a set of possible scenarios can occur, and only access data of a particular union when it’s safe to do so. That’s some of what pattern matching can provide, and 100% of what using switch statements in TypeScript with their Discriminated Unions can provide. Yes, it’s not 100% exhaustive, but TypeScript is not soundly typed, and even Elm which is still has the same issue TypeScript does: You’re running in JavaScript where anything is possible. So it’s good enough to build with and much better than what you had.

How to render a basic calendar UI in Elm
The beauty of a language like Elm (and other lambda-calculus / functional programming inspired languages) is that there's very little transformation involved in going from an idea to code. And that seems to have a big impact on getting things done.

Is it possible to write games like Pac-Man in a functional language?
I think the most fun and approachable way for beginners to build games with functional programming is with Elm [1].
See a few (small, demo) games built by the community in [2] .
Notice Elm has abandoned the FRP approach in favor of Model-View-Update [3].
