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.

Question regarding Recursive datatypes and cats typeclasses (Haskell to Scala)
Scala 2-only: * Shapeless (there is Shapeless for Scala 3 but less often needed as basic things are in Scala 3)
-
Is there the equivalent of this in Scala ? (Maps to Struct)
This is the FromMap typeclass in Shapeless. Note that there’s a companion syntax package for it providing .toRecord for any Map and an appropriately-structured Record (and a Record is the LabelledGeneric representation of a case class).
-
Scala 3: modifying product types in compile-time
If that's what you want, you can use Shapeless' records and HList. You can probably replicate this in plain Scala 3 with tuples and literal types as you said. It won't play nice with your others libs though but maybe there are integrations.
-
Does Scala have support for Dependent types?
See the Shapeless Sized example.
-
How does Scala's type system compare to TypeScript's? Is it as powerful?
Shapeless has Sized: https://github.com/milessabin/shapeless/blob/v2.3.9/core/src/main/scala/shapeless/sized.scala
-
Fp libraries that target scala 3 exclusively?
I know that libraries like Scodec and shapeless were rewritten practically from scratch for Scala 3, taking advantage of the next syntax and internals, as well as protoquill - a Scala 3 implementation of Quill.

Delphi 11 Alexandria Has Been Released
please show me something like this: https://akka.io/ or this: https://zio.dev/ or this: https://github.com/milessabin/shapeless

6 Years of Professional Clojure
That largely depends on the type system. Languages like Haskell and Scala which have much more powerful type systems than C/Java/Go/etc absolutely do allow you to do those sorts of things. It is a bit harder to wrap your head around to be sure and there are some rough edges, but once you get the hang of it you can get the benefits of static typing with the flexibility of dynamic typing. See https://github.com/milessabin/shapeless or a project that I've been working on a lot lately https://github.com/zio/zio-schema.

Scala3: Does it provide a simplified way of doing n-term generic parameters?
Just use cats and use the apply syntax .mapN for this. Seriously. There isn't a way to do it without generating source code that I can see in the api. Scala 3's HList Tuples aren't like Shapeless 2's HLists and I can't figure out a way in the api to reduce the tuple members down from (A, B, C, D) into an E, generically, yet with Scala 3 poly functions, unlike what you could do in Shapeless 2 with HList

Scala: A Love Story
Scala has sparked a huge ecosystem of very high quality libraries (Cats, Scalaz, shapeless, to name but a few). I think a major reason for this is that Scala attracts developers who value the advantages of the JVM, but are fed up with the limitations of the Java programming language and understand the benefits of an expressive type system and functional programming.

Ref in cats-effect. When should I use it, and when should I not?
Without concurrency, using a Ref doesn't buy you anything over just using a var. If you want the benefits of immutability with an API that resembles mutability, you have to use something like Monocle.

Show HN: Monocle – bidirectional code generation library
A very popular Scala optics library is also called Monocle. I’ve been a happy user for a few years:
https://github.com/optics-dev/Monocle
-
Monocle 3 release candidate - a super useful and simple library for optics with poetic api
See example https://www.optics.dev/Monocle/
- Monocle 3.0.0-M1 is released for Scala 2.13 and Scala 3
-
Monocle 3 Roadmap
We always have work to do, for example to define scalfix rules to automate the migration https://github.com/optics-dev/Monocle/issues/1001
What are some alternatives?
cats - Lightweight, modular, and extensible library for functional programming.
Quicklens - Modify deeply nested case class fields
Chimney - Scala library for boilerplate-free, type-safe data transformations
Scalaz - Principled Functional Programming in Scala
Scala Graph - Graph for Scala is intended to provide basic graph functionality seamlessly fitting into the Scala Collection Library. Like the well known members of scala.collection, Graph for Scala is an in-memory graph library aiming at editing and traversing graphs, finding cycles etc. in a user-friendly way.
magnolia - Easy, fast, transparent generic derivation of typeclass instances
Scala Blitz - Scala framework for efficient sequential and data-parallel collections -
scala.meta - Library to read, analyze, transform and generate Scala programs
Each - A macro library that converts native imperative syntax to scalaz's monadic expressions
