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.

Freeing Free Monads with Free ADTs
Those are the elements of the program, and we mix and match them as we please. The way we transform those into a free monad is using purescript-free. In the "bad old days" (meaning a couple days ago, before purescript-freer-free was released) we'd use a function from purescript-free called liftF to turn the ADT above into a monad.

Freeing Free Monads with Free ADTs
There are many great articles on why Free Monads are the bee's knees, notably by Gabriel Gonzalez here and here. At the end of this article, I'll give a couple of reasons that I like to use them. But here, I'd like to talk about why they are super annoying - you have to write all those functions! And even worse, you have to do it twice! Once to make the free monad, and once to transform it into the execution monad (ie Aff or IO or Identity or whatever). That's what purescript-freer-free fixes.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing purescript-free and purescript-freer-free you can also consider the following projects:
purescript-freet - Free monad transformers
purescript-aff - An asynchronous effect monad for PureScript
purescript-run - An extensible-effects implementation
