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 2026-10-12 (UTC), 07:55–08:49: 20 → 30 stars (+10). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +17 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- The repository is 2 days old and already has 30 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.

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.
