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.

Byte-Sized Swift: Building Tiny Games for the Playdate
[A Vision for Embedded Swift](https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/main/visions/e...) has the details on this new build mode and is quite interesting.
> Effectively, there will be two bottom layers of Swift, and the lower one, “non-allocating” Embedded Swift, will necessarily be a more restricted compilation mode (e.g. classes will be disallowed as they fundamentally require heap allocations) and likely to be used only in very specialized use cases. “Allocating” Embedded Swift should allow classes and other language facilities that rely on the heap (e.g. indirect enums).
Also, this seems to maybe hint at the Swift runtime eventually being reimplemented in non-allocating Embedded Swift rather than the C++ (?) that it uses now:
> The Swift runtime APIs will be provided as an implementation that’s optimized for small codesize and will be available as a static library in the toolchain for common CPU architectures. Interestingly, it’s possible to write that implementation in “non-allocating” Baremetal Swift.

Borrow Checking Without Lifetimes
I may be out of my depth here as I've only casually used Rust, but this seems similar to Swift's proposed lifetime dependencies[1]. They're not in the type system formally so maybe they're closer to poloneius work

Functional Ownership Through Fractional Uniqueness
Swift recently adopted a region-based approach for safe concurrency that builds on Milano et al’s ideas: https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/main/proposals...

Crafting Self-Evident Code with D
No, it's not. Refcounting CAN be a garbage collection algorithm, but in Swift it's deterministic and done at compile time. Not to mention recently added support for non-copyable types that enforces unique ownership: https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/main/proposals...

You can stackallocate buffers with unsafe Swift but it's not exactly fun to use. https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/main/proposals/0322-temporary-buffers.md

Can someone explain how Task really works in terms of threads (I couldnt ask all the questions with the swift team today)?
If the docs do not suffice, read the concurrency proposals of Swift Evolution. The authors describe the semantics in a very detailed way there.

How can I learn Kotlin web development?
If you want something more standard, I'd look at Kotlin Wrappers and look at examples of using react - https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin-wrappers

[Kotlin/JS for React] Do error boundaries exist?
The only reference I can find to an error boundary in Kotlin React is at QueryErrorResetBoundary.kt in the kotlin-wrappers repository. Would any of you know anything about this?
-
[Typesafe HTML DSL] Is there a way to use the "%" unit in CSS?
Yes! Interesting that it isn't defined in the Length.kt file (that's where I was looking for it) and is instead in its lonesome, but I guess it makes sense as it's not actually a length value. Thanks for the help!

Do you use kotlin/js?
From my experience if you're truly trying to interop with JavaScript code that is already out there on npm, you better hope there is a library that already wraps it like kotlin wrappers. Otherwise you would have to write a wrapper library yourself or use dukat to convert typescript definitions to kotlin (which I have never had the best luck converting but maybe it got better?).

[AskJS] I have spent 7 years creating a JavaScript alternative, would love to hear your feedback
It's still pretty finnicky to configure and it hasn't emerged from alpha yet, so its future isn't exactly secure, but I'm hopeful as they appear to be investing a lot of resources into it and adjacent projects, e.g. the kotlin-react library.
