The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.
Stars per day
Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.
Why it’s trending
- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-22 (UTC), 10:42–11:26: 8509 → 8522 stars (+13). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +56 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- Over the last two days the pace is 8.9× that of the previous week and a half.
- Elevated gains were measured on the last 2 completed UTC days in a row. Continued growth is not guaranteed.
- GitHub Trending today: #9, +115 stars.
- About 70 forks a day — people are taking the code.
Measured growth: the last 7 completed days
New stars over 7 days: 1,019. +1399% versus the preceding 7 days.

Star trust
Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
