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.

Deep Cloning Objects in JavaScript, the Modern Way
Instead of the "deep path properties" syntax, you might want to take the opportunity to learn about functional lenses with monocle-ts
https://gcanti.github.io/monocle-ts/

I may have a crush on the TypeScript compiler, because of stuff like this
You may be interested also in checking out the implementation of Lens in monocle-ts, one of the libraries in the fp-ts ecosystem

Haskell Lens Tutorial by Exercises
For anyone - anyone who's faffed around with JavaScript's spread syntax when working with nested immutable data, anyway - struggling to understand the general concept or utility of lenses, I'd encourage looking into monocle-ts. The motivation [0] that kicks off the README instantly made me a believer, and TypeScript's idiosyncratic type system makes using the library remarkably natural; it fits right in without needing to deal with anything analogous to Template Haskell.

Is there a cleaner way to immutably update a deeply nested attribute? (I feel like this is not very clean)
You could have a look at the monocle-ts library. It was designed to deal with this kind of problem.

Simple Immutable Data w/ Spectacles 👓
spectacles-ts integrates seamlessly with the fp-ts ecosystem (it's built on top of the excellent monocle-ts library)

Why is it so difficult to modify a deeply nested state in React?
lenses help with this quite a bit, check out monocle-ts

You could have invented lenses!
You notice that Getters are composable as they are just pure functions, but the fact that setters are mutating values is not that nice. Tho, at this point we have invented quasi mutable lenses and If you really want you might invent actual purely functional lenses as well, but that’s for another day. Meanwhile you can take a look at an actual typescript lesses library from @gcanti / monocle-ts.

From a Lorry Driver to Ruby on Rails Developer at 38
I think it’s great that functional programming is making its way into traditional imperative languages - even JavaScript (I recently came across https://gcanti.github.io/fp-ts/ as a pretty extreme example)
Elixir/Erlang has function-level pattern matching, which I really like. I’ve yet to see it anywhere else, though my understanding is it came from Prolog.

Type-Safe Printf() in TypeScript
While I certainly agree, I've found that this is often an indication of too-complex an architecture, and a fundamental re-think being necessary. I've had projects that depend on [fp-ts], which end up incredibly generic-heavy, but still make it entirely through a typecheck(not build- typescript's just worse at that than other tools like esbuild) in seconds-at-worse.
Obviously depends on your organization/project/application, but I do like these things as complexity-smells.

Introducing fp-utils a functional utility library for Deno / Node
Unlike more comprehensive functional libraries like fp-ts, each module can be imported and resolved separately. If you just need options, simply add the option module and you're good to go.

Blog post: graphs and monads with Typescript
While it's quite abstract, I believe it may be useful to those of you who is interested to learn more about functional programming [in Typescript] and also get more intuition on diverse programming ideas. I use fp-ts as a functional programming library there.

Functional Programming Library for Golang by IBM
The library for TypeScript that this is influenced by is here:
https://github.com/gcanti/fp-ts
Interesting how both languages with this library converge to a similar syntax, due to heavy use of functions.

Is Scala worth learning in 2023?
Learn something that pays the bill first - nowadays it's Golang/Rust react/typescript. Then you can try some pure fp libs like fp-ts and fp-core.rs, and look through existing scala cats docs. If you'll feel bad about it - that's totally fine and expectable, fp takes a paradigm shift and not that many dev able to shift their brains way of thought due to basic psychological rigidity) (inability to change habits and to modify concepts/attitudes once developed). And that's purely a staffing and management issue - folks hired randoms out of the blue, and called 'em a team.

Application Bootstrapping with fp-ts
fp-ts, a library that caters to functional programming in TypeScript, comes with some micro-abstractions that already solve a few of our needs.

What are some strategies for ensuring correctness and fewer errors in dynamically typed languages?
Also, don't underestimate how powerful TypeScript can be in capable hands (namely Giulio Canti's). Check out fp-ts, for instance.

Use Pure Functions to understand functional programming
You are able to type it using function overloads, an example can be found here - link, line 236.
