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
> 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.

When Zig is safer and faster than Rust
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)

Tired of Typescript? Check out ReScript!
ReScript is a fully typed language with an easy to understand JS like syntax, blazing fast compiler, that compiles to JavaScript. You can easily drop it into an existing project, and there is even a way to generate TypeScript types if you want to add it to a TypeScript project!

Learning Elm by porting a medium-sized web front end from React (2019)
If you’re a front-end developer, you should checkout ReScript[1], supposedly a JS-oriented successor of ReasonML and developed by the ReasonML team.

ReScript: Rust like features for JavaScript
ReScript is "Fast, Simple, Fully Typed JavaScript from the Future". What that means is that ReScript has a lightning fast compiler, an easy to learn JS like syntax, strong static types, with amazing features like pattern matching and variant types. Until 2020 it was called "BuckleScript" and is closely related to ReasonML.
-
Ask HN: Interest in a Rust-Inspired Language Compiling to JavaScript?
As another commenter has already suggested, ReasonML has a lot of what you described here.
However, modern JS-oriented toolchain for ReasonML is called ReScript and you can learn more here: https://rescript-lang.org/

How does one write React apps in a purely functional style without making the entire codebase a mess?
ReScript (before BuckleScript) https://rescript-lang.org/ is a functional language that can also use OOP. Ideal for Javascript and Typescript projects, React and servers. It integrates perfectly with Javascript and Typescript code https://rescript-lang.org/docs/react/latest/introduction

Show HN: EdgeDB Cloud and 4.0 with FTS and Auth
Thank you!
We invited Gabriel because we think what he's building is pretty cool. It showcases so much about EdgeDB: its type system, data model, query language, composability, introspection, etc.
I'm not a ReScript user myself. What I know is that it's a functional programming language somewhat heavily inspired by OCaml. Their website goes into details [1]

Strong typing, a hill I'm willing to die on
You might want to look into ReScript (https://rescript-lang.org/). It has strong static typing with type inference, and it is very fast.

Building React Components Using Unions in TypeScript
This is because a “Tagged Union”, another word for TypeScript’s Discriminated Union, is a way to “tag which one is in use right now… we check the tag to see”. Just like when you’re shopping and check the tag of a piece of clothing to see what the price is, what size it is, or what material it’s made out of. Languages like ReScript compile many of their Unions (called Variants) to JavaScript Objects that have a tag property.
