This is the change over that interval. - Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +520 stars, using observed gains and the previous day. - The repository is 2 days old and already has 619 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet. - Top new repositories this week: #29. - About 123 forks a day — people are taking the code. ## Star trust Star growth looks organic. Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer. ## Numbers - Forks: 79 - Issues and pull requests: 81 - Watchers: 19 - Average over the last week: 380 per day - Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks) - Stars in the last hour (measured): 23 - Latest release: build-60 (2026-10-31) ## Stars per day, last 3 days (oldest → newest, today is partial) 2026-10-29 … 2026-10-31: 164, 457, 167 ## Magnitude by day, last 2 days 10-30 6.4, 10-31 7.3 ## Spotted in now - Top new repositories this week: #29 ## More in this category 1. **valentderah/totk-pc-recomp** — 8.3 · Breakout · Games & graphics · C · +309 stars measured 2026-10-31, 00:27–06:40 UTC, ≈ 1,100 by evening Static recompilation of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom into a native Windows x86-64 application with a Vulkan renderer.

Full card: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/gothamor/gta-vcs-recomp.md --- 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.
