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.

Bringing more sweetness to ruby with sorbet types 🍦
First let's introduce the tool: Sorbet is a gem developed by Stripe that aims to bring type notation syntax and type checking support for the Ruby ecosystem by utilizing the "Gradual typing" philosophy, it also provide type generation from YARD comments via the tapioca gem, allowing to grow alongside the already built Ruby codebase.

Building GitHub with Ruby on Rails
Have you tried https://github.com/Shopify/tapioca with Sorbet? Typing in general has ways to go sure, but I find this combination quite usable in my day to day.
-
Can text editors detect undefined variables in Ruby?
Sorbet can do this, as long as you have type signatures for your code. Given Ruby's highly dynamic nature that's where tools like Tapioca come in to generate these, for example for Active Record models where instance methods are generated based on the database schema. But the moment when something returns T.untyped you're back where you were before - it helps but isn't perfect.

Open-Sourcing the Sorbet (Ruby) VS Code Extension
Regarding Sorbet and Rails, I recommend Tapioca [1].
The Rails app that I worked on had a few edge cases Tapioca didn't cover so I wrote a simple script to load the Rails app and generate RBI files (e.g. generate RBI definitions for fixture methods in ApplicationTestCase). The Tapioca codebase helped provide a path for that [2]. Tapioca also continues to add to their DSL compilers. The work to integrate Sorbet paid off very quickly.
Also, T::Enum and T::Struct are handy in any Ruby codebase.

New with Sorbet
I'm pretty sure sorbet-rails is just a rails-wrapper gem for the sorbet gem :-) (HAML does exactly same thing) and tapioca seems to be some convenience library to generate RBI (https://github.com/Shopify/tapioca)

A decent VS Code and Ruby on Rails setup
I saw no mention of RBS+Steep, the latter providing a LSP. I use it a lot and very much like it, although it's still young and needs love, but it's making good, steady progress! I've been very pleasantly surprised by some of the crazy things Steep can catch, completely statically!
You appear to be working on projects with Sorbet (which I tried to like but found it fell short in practice, notably outside of the app use case i.e it's mostly useless for gems) so it may be a tall order to try on those. Maybe you can give RBS+Steep a shot on some small project?

What it was like working for Gitlab
I don't know what you mean by "Static typing is not webscale".
> https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39159481
Bugs exist in all code written in all programming languages and you will find bugs in programs written in statically typed languages too as you know. Programming languages are rarely chosen for the absense of bugs alone though or we'd all be using SPARK Ada or something.
> spitting out code as fast as your keyboard works, or is is not having features do weirdo things
This is a straw man. No-one has suggested that "spitting out code as fast as your keyboard works" is what Rails allows you to do, or that Ruby code results in features that "do weirdo things".
In reality engineer productivity is important and Rails enables it in a web environment.
> I have more than once tried to contribute fixes to GitLab's codebase, and every time I open the thing in RubyMine it hurpdurps having no earthly idea where symbols come from or what completions are legal in any given context.
Yes, I prefer writing statically typed languages and I would /greatly/ prefer Ruby to be statically typed for a number of reasons, but it will likely never be so in a way I consider to be usable (see https://github.com/ruby/rbs). Not being able to definitively tell what a method returns or where one is defined is a total PITA, but it's one of the array of up and downsides to Ruby, with each language having a different set.
> I trust JetBrains analysis deeply, so if they can't deduce what's going on, then it must take an impressive amount of glucose to memorize every single surface area one needs to implement a feature.
You don't need to know how all of Rails works to write a Rails app, as I'm sure you know, so this seems like another mis-representation of the truth, just as you don't need to know how the compiler or CPUs work to do a lot of (most?) programming.
> That or, hear me out, maybe "it works on my machine" is a close to correct as the language is going to get without explicit type hints as a pseudo static typing
You seem to be suggesting that Ruby on Rails applications behave unpredictably on a machine to machine basis but that's not really how Ruby works in practice, or matching on my experience.

Are you familiar with rbs (https://github.com/ruby/rbs)? If so, what issues do you see with using that over TypeScript?

Is anyone using RBS?
Is anyone using RBS? Or, is it still half-baked? I haven't seen any recent posts about it this year. Though, I see the repo has some recent activity.
-
RBS introduced manifest.yaml
Currently rbs collection resolves stdlib dependencies, but rbs -r LIB option doesn't resolve them unfortunately. For instance, logger depends on monitor, but rbs -r logger doesn't load monitor.

The future of rbs collection
Partial clone reduces the impact, but it just procrastinates the problems.
What are some alternatives?
sorbet - A fast, powerful type checker designed for Ruby
dry-validation - Validation library with type-safe schemas and rules
rbs_parser - Ruby RBS parsing and translation to Sorbet RBI
sord - Convert YARD docs to Sorbet RBI and Ruby 3/Steep RBS files
steep - Static type checker for Ruby
sorbet-typed - A central repository for sharing type definitions for Ruby gems
typeprof - An experimental type-level Ruby interpreter for testing and understanding Ruby code
Stripe - PHP library for the Stripe API.
