The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

PureScript 0.15 Released
I was curious about when that happened- apparently, early last year: https://github.com/purescript/purescript/pull/4085

I just wrote my first article: Why should you try Elm?
It currently has done experiments in the backend (link). Sadly, none of this is ready for production yet. Good thing is that we have purescript for the backend, who is indeed very similar to Elm and Haskell! You should give it a look!
- can you recommend active Haskell open source projects?
- resources for purescript

Differences between TypeScript and Elm
Alternative to Elm can be PureScript, ClojureScript, ReasonML, ReScript, and other languages that compile to JavaScript. There are also newer and interesting languages that are still in an explorative state like Ren or Derw.
- From TypeScript to ReScript
- What are the advantages to learning Haskell over Typescript, or vice versa? For instance, can you do equational reasoning in Typescript, like you can in Haskell?

Is OCaml the "Go" of Functional Programming Languages?
Just one tip: if you have any trouble with ocaml , the language has an alternative syntax made by Facebook called ReasonML that aims to make the language easier for people coming from other languages. This helped me a lot when I was learning ocaml.

ReasonML isn't listed as well [0], but I see that it was last updated on Mon Sep 7 17:22:16 PDT 2015

Failing to Learn Zig via Advent of Code
OCaml is pretty close already to what you're describing. The OCaml ecosystem fully embraces imperative programming. And if the syntax of OCaml is problematic, then perhaps ReasonML (https://reasonml.github.io/) is what you're looking for: a curly-braces syntax for OCaml.

Bleeter - UI for GTA V's microblogging site built using React and F#
I've not looked at it much myself beyond listening to a talk but if you're interested in Functional+React you may want to look at ReasonML, which is a variant of OCaml. It's written by Jordan Walke, who wrote the first version of React, and has strong React support.

Trying Out Generics in Go
I found this closed-mindedness hard to understand -- I don't spend very much conscious thought on the syntax when programming at all -- but for people like you facebook made Reason ML https://reasonml.github.io/
Someone should port OCaml to the Go runtime with a good high-level FFI. It could really give the community a boost.

Why You Should Learn Functional Programming
These new tools and perspectives empower you to write better programs even when you write in traditional languages. In fact, many modern extensions/frameworks have functional flavours added. See for example ReasonML and typescript. Learning functional programming will give you the necessary building blocks to pick up these frameworks quickly and correctly.

What are some alternatives?
When comparing purescript and reason you can also consider the following projects:
fp-ts - Functional programming in TypeScript
Elm - Compiler for Elm, a functional language for reliable webapps.
rescript-compiler - The compiler for ReScript.
Idris2 - A purely functional programming language with first class types
haskell-names - Haskell suite library for name resolution
reflex - Interactive programs without callbacks or side-effects. Functional Reactive Programming (FRP) uses composable events and time-varying values to describe interactive systems as pure functions. Just like other pure functional code, functional reactive code is easier to get right on the first try, maintain, and reuse.
polysemy - :gemini: higher-order, no-boilerplate monads
elm-reactor
stylish-haskell - Haskell code prettifier [Moved to: https://github.com/haskell/stylish-haskell]
rust - Empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.
liquidhaskell - Liquid Types For Haskell
rust - Rust for the xtensa architecture. Built in targets for the ESP32 and ESP8266
