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.

Erlang: The coding language that finance forgot
I will put in a good word for PureScript for the beam with `purerl`. It's my go-to for writing BEAM code nowadays. Notably PureScript tooling including LSP, package management, etc., just works, so you are able to just get to work in internalizing the way OTP and other Erlangy things are expressed in a statically typed, pure language.
https://github.com/purerl/purerl & https://purerl-cookbook.readthedocs.io/ for more information. Join the PureScript discord and the #purerl channel if you want help.

purerl - Integrating PureScript into Elixir projects
purerl is a compiler for turning PureScript code into Erlang code, so that you're able to write BEAM (the Erlang virtual machine) applications using it.

Phoenix 1.7 is View-less
You've been able to write PureScript that compiles to Erlang and has perfect interop for years, via `purerl`[0]. Using it with Elixir is as simple as adding `purerlex` as a compiler and having your PureScript code automatically compile when `mix` compiles things, and off you go.
In terms of the typing itself, it's exactly what you get in all of PureScript, strict static typing with no `any` or the like. Using `Pinto`, the de facto OTP layer in PureScript your processes are typed, i.e. their `info` messages & state are typed, which means that they are all much more like strongly typed state machines than anything else.
You can see an example of a basic `gen_server` here:
https://pastebin.com/UTEfz7Wg
The differences aren't very big in terms of what you'd expect to be doing. One small thing to note is that the `GenServer.call` expects a closure to be passed instead of having the split between `gen_server:call` & `handle_call`, removing the need for synchronizing two places for your messages being sent and handled.

Borgo is a statically typed language that compiles to Go
I haven't had time to really try to write anything in it, but https://gleam.run/ looks really good too. Like Elm for backend + frontend!

Release Radar • March 2024 Edition
Want a friendly language for building safe systems at scale? Gleam is here for you. It features modern and familiar syntax, that's reliable and scalable. Gleam runs on an Erlang virtual machine, and can run plenty of concurrent tasks. It comes with a compiler, build tool, formatter, editor integrations, and package manager all built in so you can get started right away. Congrats to the team on shipping your first major version 🙌.

The Current State of Clojure's Machine Learning Ecosystem
While I love Clojure, I have to agree about tooling. I recently started using Gleam* and was impressed at how easy it was to get up and running with the CLI tool. I think this is an important part of getting people to adopt a language.

Show HN: I open-sourced the in-memory PostgreSQL I built at work for E2E tests
If you use languages that compile to WASM (such as Gleam https://gleam.run), and can also run Postgres via WASM, then it opens very interesting offline scenarios with codebases which are similar on both the client and the server, for instance.

Why the number of Gleam programmers is growing so fast?
Recently, Gleam has gained more popularity, and a lot of developers (including me) are learning it. At the time of this writing, it has exceeded 14k stars on GitHub; it grew really fast for the last month.
- Cranelift code generation comes to Rust
- Gleam v1.0.0
- Gleam has a 1.0 release candidate

Welcome to the Gleam Language Tour
Oh, strange that github had a date of 2016 on this one: https://github.com/gleam-lang/gleam/issues/2
I was just going by that, though I do remember checking out gleam 5 years ago or so.
Re: macros, I really do think they’re a big deal and all the other newer languages I’ve used, such as Rust have some kind of macros or powerful meta programming features.
For older languages, a few, like Ruby have enough meta programmability to make nice DSLs, but many others don’t. Given the choice, I’d much rather have Elixir/Clojure style macros than other meta-programming facilities I’ve seen so far.

Inko Programming Language
I had been only following this language with some interest, I guess this was born in gitlab not sure if the creator(s) still work there. This is what I'd have wanted golang to be (albeit with GC when you do not have clear lifetimes).
But how would you differentiate yourself from https://gleam.run which can leverage the OTP, I'd be more interested if we can adapt Gleam to graalvm isolates so we can leverage the JVM ecosystem.
