Stars per day

Bars show daily stars; the line is a moving average of the available history. Short histories do not yet establish a reliable usual pace. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-07 (UTC), 19:35–20:29: 78 → 98 stars (+20). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +23 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • The repository is 0 days old and already has 98 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
  • Top new repositories this week: #160.
  • Hacker News: “Animated ASCII Art for Web Pages” — 202 points, 5 h ago.

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.
