## Useful for

- Install slot on an Anbernic RG SP to replace the stock frontend for GB/GBC/GBA ROMs
- Set screen rotation on RG28XX via the SLOT_ROTATE variable in launch_frontend.sh
- Test slot on a new Anbernic model and report the result in a GitHub issue

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-10 (UTC), 11:30–12:56: 91 → 96 stars (+5). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +13 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- Before this, the repository barely got any stars — about 1 per day.
- Elevated gains were measured on the last 2 completed UTC days in a row. Continued growth is not guaranteed.
- GitHub Trending Rust today: #5, +19 stars.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
