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.

I like to discuss ui frameworks for java backend?
There's this: https://github.com/webfx-project/webfx. But it uses GWT which is not maintained (actively) anymore.

What do you use for building Desktop apps these days?
For JavaFX on web there is WebFX, Gluon Promise, and JPro.

JavaFX Links of the Week of October 21st, at jfx-central.com
WebFX - a JavaFX to JavaScript transpiler - can now access local files, as you can read on this GitHub discussion, with a demo on files.webfx.dev.
- WebFX - A JavaFX to JavaScript application transpiler. Write your WebApp in JavaFX and WebFX will transpile it in pure JS.

Any experience with JavaFX to Browser using Gluon Substrate?
There is also https://github.com/webfx-project/webfx doing that: https://spacefx.webfx.dev/ compared to server-side rendering wit jpro https://demos.jpro.one/spacefx.html

Developer preview for JavaFX inside a web browser
It's not gluons project. And your words contradict themselves. If it is mirrored from a server, turning off the internet connection would freeze the game. It runs on the browser, and obviously it'll be cached after loading it once? Your words really make no sense. It's a good transpilation, that's why it's small... Can you just accept it? https://github.com/webfx-project/webfx

Compiling a Lisp
There's an effort afoot to bring this to the Clojure world, with the lovely name jank: https://jank-lang.org

A Tour of Lisps
I also liked that reference since I had not heard of Jank before. It is a work in progress so I just added a calendar entry for 9 months from now to check it out. https://jank-lang.org/

Boehm Garbage Collector
There will be a lot of room for this, once I build out more of the features. In particular, there will be a lot of Clojure libraries which need to gain jank support. Clojure doesn't require "porting", so to speak, since it has a special .cljc file which can use reader conditionals to check the host that it's in (clj, cljs, cljr, jank, etc). So anywhere those libs are using Java interop, we'd need to wrap it to use native interop instead.
On the compiler and tooling itself, I have some open issues here: https://github.com/jank-lang/jank/issues
The vast majority of it is heavy C++ work, though. Outside of that, the biggest gains will come from time spent on packaging, distribution, and testing on various platforms.
And if none of that sounds interesting or applicable, don't worry. Just be sure to join the Slack channel and hang out with us. :)

Using C++ as a scripting language, part 8
On the top of using C++ for scripting, and related to the discussion of CERN's ROOT/Cling, I am developing a Clojure dialect on C++/LLVM called jank: https://jank-lang.org/
jank is a true Clojure, meaning you get interactive, REPL-based development and a whole stdlib of persistent, immutable data structures and functions to transform them. But it's also C++, so you can write inline C++ within your jank source, and interpolate jank values within that. You can link with existing native code using LLVM and you can embed jank into your existing native projects to use for scripting.
jank is pre-alpha, right now, and I've only been showing it to Clojure devs so far, but there's a huge audience of C++ devs which may be interested in introducing Clojure to their native code.

[ANN] London Clojurians Talk: The jank programming language (by Jeaye Wilkerson)
jank (https://jank-lang.org/) is a Clojure dialect on LLVM with C++ interop. In this talk, Jeaye will cover jank's use cases, some challenges around building a native Clojure dialect, and some insights about Clojure itself found only by spelunking deep into the Clojure compiler.

Janet for Mortals
I wonder if Jank [1] could be such a Lisp? I haven't played around with it, but I really like the idea and would love to see it get more traction.
