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.

Roc – A fast, friendly, functional language
Their FAQ is an eminently reasonable breakdown of their choices:
https://github.com/roc-lang/roc/blob/main/FAQ.md
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.

Current Issues with the Qt Project – From the Outside Looking In

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)

The Linux Kernel Prepares for Rust 1.77 Upgrade
This is a good guide on building small Rust binaries: https://github.com/johnthagen/min-sized-rust
This talks about going to extreme lengths on making the smallest Rust binary possible, 400 bytes when it was written, https://darkcoding.net/software/a-very-small-rust-binary-ind...
The thing is, you lose a lot of nice features when you do this, like panic unwinding, debug symbols, stdlib… for kernel and some embedded development it’s definitely important, but for most use cases, does it matter?

Rust wont save us, but its ideas will
Oh it was 137, haha. I will link you to this older comment of mine: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29408906

Making Rust binaries smaller by default
Are you sure? If so then this is awesome news, but I'm a bit confused; the commit in that min-sized-rust repo adding `build-std` to the README was merged in August 2021: https://github.com/johnthagen/min-sized-rust/pull/30
Are you saying that at that point the feature still hadn't "landed in Rust nightly" until recently? If so then what's the difference between a feature just being available in Rust nightly, vs having "landed"?

Was Rust Worth It?
Rust binaries are by default nowhere close to 500MB. If they are not small enough for you, you can try https://github.com/johnthagen/min-sized-rust. By avoiding the formatting machinery and using `panic_immediate_abort` you can get about the size of C binaries.

Tiny Binaries (2021)
That must be without stripping. Also there are ways to reduce binary size. See e.g. [min-sized-rust](https://github.com/johnthagen/min-sized-rust). I've gotten stripped binaries of small cli utils less than 400KiB without doing anything special, less than 150 KiB by customizing profile settings and compressing with upx, and less than 30 KiB by replacing the std with the libc as the link shows. Haven't tried with fltk though...
