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.

Ludic: New framework for Python with seamless Htmx support
Generating `HTML` from lisps has poisoned any other approach for me, see for example https://www.neilvandyke.org/racket/html-writing/, https://reagent-project.github.io/, and https://edicl.github.io/cl-who/

Produce HTML from S-Expressions
Hiccup syntax for Clojure uses hash maps (curly braces) for attrs, e.g. `{:style {:background "red" :margin "1em"}`
See Reagent which uses Hiccup synta: https://reagent-project.github.io/

* Single-Page App: shadow-cljs for the build concerns (https://github.com/thheller/shadow-cljs), Reagent with Re-frame for complex/large app (https://reagent-project.github.io and https://github.com/day8/re-frame). Even if we now prefer using HTMX (https://htmx.org) and server-side rendering (Hiccup way of manipulating HTML is just amazing, https://github.com/weavejester/hiccup).

Clojure is a product design tool
The API documentation lists the most commonly and rarely used parts before going into detail and there are many usage examples.
Reagent has a nice intro tutorial (classic todo-app): http://reagent-project.github.io and many other helpful tutorials and resources for beginners: https://cljdoc.org/d/reagent/reagent/1.2.0/doc/documentation...
However, since Reagent is still stuck with class-components for more complex behavior and relies on Hiccup, which is nice but has a performance cost compared to pure React, I am unsure about its future. Like some others in the Clojure community, I have moved to thin React wrappers like Helix and use Refx to integrate those with re-frame. It may be a bit confusing right now for beginners since there is no “golden path”.
Also, unfortunately, many smaller libraries are poorly documented and it seems like it is expected from the developer to dig into the source code to find out what’s going on.
What I found the most difficult as a beginner was how to setup a project in ClojureScript in the first place, like all the configuration in shadow-cljs, how it interacts with deps.edn, how it integrates with npm, the REPL, etc. But dev/build config has always been a weak spot for me, so it might be just that.
Overall, I still very much enjoy working with Clojure(Script), more than in any other language. Anyone who likes Lisps and functional programming should give it a try (and be sure to watch Rich Hickeys amazing talks!).

Ask HN: How can a BE/infra developer handle the FE side of personal projects?
have you tried cljs and reagent? it’s a different vibe.

Building a website like it's 1999... in 2022
Clojure people have been doing this for a decade or so. It’s really so much better to work with. All started with Hiccup and when React came along you got Reagent and many more developments building on the idea.

Cherry: ClojureScript to ES6 Module Compiler
You can already develop with ClojureScript on the back-end. A popular ClojureScript compiler, Shadow-CLJS (https://github.com/thheller/shadow-cljs) has a target for Node among many others.

Why metabase and circle are not using cljs (mostly)?
Hi, I'm looking at Clojurescript again after not having paid attention to it after several years. Are you saying that shadow-cljs does something to deal with the, "I have no idea if this library I want to use works with the Google Closure compiler," problem? If so, what? I'd really like to know.

Rich Hickey – open-source is Not About You
I don't know, the community in general tend to use macros that are well written. I keep seeing core.async being used (`go`) in Clojure projects, and also various macros for writing HTTP servers (compojure being a popular one which main code interface is a macro `defroutes`).
ClojureScript projects also routinely add support for making asynchronous code look synchronous (like `async/await` in vanilla JavaScript) via macros. shadow-cljs's `js-await` being one of the well-written ones: https://github.com/thheller/shadow-cljs/blob/49fb078b834e64f...
Usage:
(defn my-async-fn [foo]
