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.

Ask HN: Why are there no traditional language compilers that target the JVM?
There is the GraalVM Python Runtime, Renjin GCC-Bridge (for C, C++, R)...
I feel like all of this kind of exists but it's quite esoteric "non-standard stuff" and not necessarily something sane people want in production.

OpenJDK Proposes Project Galahad to Merge GraalVM Native Compilation
It'll help build cross-platform desktop applications. In theory, it'll mean hooking the build process up to a GitHub action to build platform-specific binaries, such as my FOSS KeenWrite Markdown editor[0], without having to have a copy of every operating system.
To my knowledge, cross-compiling "native" Linux and Windows binaries using Java requires duct tape, chewing gum, and warp-packer.[1]
GraalVM isn't a panacea, though.[2] For example, GraalVM cannot compile Renjin, a pure Java R interpreter, so you have to switch from Renjin to FastR. Switching isn't trivial.

How this sub treats Java ...
I just wanted to mention that C compilers exist for the JVM.
- Why it is that C++ can be compiled to JavaScript bytecode that is WebAssembly (using Emscripten), but it cannot be compiled to Java bytecode?

Gren 0.3: Source maps
Great! I have not yet made source maps for my programming language that compiles to WebAssembly, and I probably never will.

What is the most absurd error message your compiler/interpreter was once outputting?
Up until today, my AEC-to-WebAssembly was, if somebody tried to use two structures of different types as the second and the third operand to the ?: (ternary conditional) operator, as in this example: ``` Structure First Consists Of Nothing; EndStructure

Good languages for writing compilers in?
Well, I have written the first compiler for my programming language, targetting x86, in IE6-compatible JavaScript, and the second compiler, targetting WebAssembly, has been written in C++11. I think that, to choose a language to write a compiler in, you need to look at at least two things:

Why does GCC run in Docker produce around 30% smaller statically linked C++ executables than GCC run on Linux? AECforWebAssembly is 1.08 MB large if compiled using GCC 13.1 in Docker, but it is 1.59 MB if compiled using GCC 13.1 on Debian.
You can see the releases v2.5.3 and v2.5.2 of AECforWebAssembly on GitHub. They are produced with the same version of GCC, the only difference (as far as I know) is that v2.5.2 was produced directly on Debian, whereas v2.5.3 was cross-compiled from Windows to Linux using Docker.

Let's Make Sure Github Doesn't Become the only Option
That could be true. I host my AEC-to-WebAssembly compiler on GitHub, GitLab and SourceForge, and it's only on GitHub that it has 21 stars and 2 forks. On GitLab and SourceForge, it has zero of both.

Does the JVM / CLR even make sense nowadays?
Well, the main compiler for my programming language is targetting the JavaScript Virtual Machine by outputting WebAssembly. I think it's even better than targetting Java Virtual Machine, because, for one thing, your executables can run in any modern browser if you output WebAssembly. If you target Java Virtual Machine, the users need to actually download your app. Furthermore, there is an official assembler for WebAssembly called WebAssembly Binary Toolkit (WABT), so your compiler can output assembly and not have to deal with binary files. There is nothing equivalent to that for Java Virtual Machine.
