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.

Current Issues with the Qt Project – From the Outside Looking In
That's exactly what we are doing with QSkinny: https://github.com/uwerat/qskinny, we have been using it for a customer project for years now...

Am I the only one miss C++ application GUI that is so much snappier and responsive than todays GUI framework such as Electron or others using python, JS etc?
Not really, or at least, not fully. The roadmap for Qt 6 somewhat vaguely intends to have a C++ API for Qt Quick Controls (now there is, but very limited and private with no compatibility, and ugly to use). I think they are seeing that QSkinny can take some market from them.

High performance pixel perfect applications. Qt vs wxWidgets vs GTK+
Do you think that an approach like QSkinny would work for you? I've not used it myself in practice (just running the examples, and looking at the code), but the idea of it is that it uses Qt Quick as a backend (so I guess in Qt 6 it would use OpenGL/Vulkan/Metal/etc as needed without you having to do the abstraction), and IIRC it uses some of the private APIs that Qt Quick Controls use as well for the C++ side. QSkinny doesn't require to use QML though (should be optional, but I think C++ is preferred/more tested). It has been said also that during the Qt 6 timeline, there might be a C++ public API for Qt Quick Controls.

Qt 5.15.3 Open Source released (1 year after it being commercial only)
It kind of is (with a 3rd party library). Or you can use the private API (which I would not recommend). A public C++ API for Qt Quick Controls is planned as well, but I'm not very optimistic on the time frame.

Their FAQ is an eminently reasonable breakdown of their choices:

I don't fully agree with all of the reasoning, but it's a reasonable position to stake.

DreamBerd is a perfect programming language
If you forget what parametrisation and functions are, then Roc's modules look like they actually do that.

> How would a user interface written in a functional language look?
Maybe you're not aware of Elm?
https://elm-lang.org
Elm is really functional, unlike the likes of React that are just partially, kind of functional.
There's an attempt at bringing Elm to the desktop, the Roc language... here's an UI example written in Roc:

Why and How We Retired Elm at Culture Amp
What are your thoughts on the direct descendant, Roc? [0] I know it's pre v0.1 so maybe you don't have any, but as a fellow Elm lover it seems pretty compelling on the surface albeit less directly frontend-dev focused.

The Spinnaker Programming Language
I might be misunderstanding something, but, for example, look at this "host"/platform: https://github.com/roc-lang/roc/blob/main/examples/cli/tui-platform/host.zig
- Roc's standard library was briefly written in Rust, but was soon rewritten in Zig.

You are not alone. The other day I was checking out a new programming language and the author rewrote the unsafe rust part to zig: https://github.com/roc-lang/roc/blob/main/FAQ.md#why-does-ro...

Ask HN: What Happened to Elm?
Check out Roc[0][1] by Richard Feldman; it's early-stages (perhaps earlier stages than Elm?) but from everything I've seen it looks a bit like a spiritual successor to Elm, though focused more on native applications (but still seems to have its sights set on webassembly support too)
