With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet. - Top new repositories this week: #158. - About 35 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: 9 - Issues and pull requests: 9 - Watchers: 3 - Average over the last week: 17 per day - Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks) - Stars in the last hour (measured): 10 - Latest release: 1.0.1 (2026-10-02) ## Stars per day, last 13 days (oldest → newest, today is partial) 2026-09-20 … 2026-10-02: 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 70, 10 ## Spotted in now - Top new repositories this week: #158 ## More in this category 1. **elliotttate/Wind-Waker-Recomp** — 5.4 · Early signal · Games & graphics · C · +3 stars today, ≈ 65 by evening A static recompilation of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker from GameCube for native play on Windows, Mac, iPhone and iPad with Direct3D 12/Metal rendering and mod support.

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.
